No. You get as many picks as you can. Spot a guy maybe not in the next draft bu 2-3 down the line and make sure you have the ammo to get him. Develop him and keep him for the long haul.

 

So you trade some of our current picks to have ammo for a qb 2-3 years down the line that you have no real idea will be a NFL star.... Do you really think the Colts would've traded their Luck pick? The skins had to sell the farm to get RGknee. You want the Ravens to give up multiple 1st and 2nds on a maybe? Flacco would have had better numbers if Oz hadn't wiffed on so many people these last 3 seasons.

Guys who don't have a future here...you mean bad players/old players? Like when the Ravens tried to trade Monroe and had nobody interested? You think we'll get top tier picks for Elam or Kendrick Lewis? You think teams will trade for Suggs coming off two major injuries? The Ravens got stuck with 20 late rounds picks last year because teams don't want to trade down, this isn't Madden logic.

No. Players that have value to others but you just can't afford to pay or you thik they have topped out on production. You can't trade your trash. Only sports talk radio callers think you can trade trash.

 

I would have traded Suggs before he got his FA deal. I would have traded Cmac before he got his. Yanda should have been traded before and kept KO.

So teams would trade good picks for guys like KO,Art Jones,McFee who the Ravens wont be able to sign? Those teams would only be renting those players for one year then they'll hit FA. As a GM you would trade a #3 for a player that may or may not be on your team next year?

the article was right on point, the playoff run was a fluke and his play since then has proven that, and the worse move Ozzie has made these past few years was signing Flacco and then extending him. We are paying an average QB top dollar , i can name ten Qb's that would have had us in the playoffs all 3 years since the superbowl and none of them make as much money as Flacco, so if you want to blame Ozzie for anything blame him for all of the Cap space that Flacco's contract eats up. You see if Flacco's play matched his contract then any other bad picks or contracts that Ozzie is responsible for would not be as noticeable because our great QB would cover them up. Ozzie's most flagrant bad move is the Flacco contract and it's nice to see that others have noticed because most people round here are Flacco fans and not Raven fans.

Just because you say you can name 10 quarterbacks, does not mean they would have made the playoffs.

 

Ozzie has many great flubs, far more hurting to the team than Flacco's deal.

you can't name 5 qb's that would have had us in the playoffs since the SB, making less money...And the 5 you dream up, I will refute everyone of them.
