I think this year will tell the tale, he will be well set in Todd's system, study film to see what defenses are doing. With Henry, the backers will have to step up, or freeze in place for a beat which should open the middle up more, a place Lamar is most accurate and where Bateman & Flowers flourish

Lamar was still adjusting to becoming a pocket passer, so he often didn't get to his 3rd read, Bateman. I expect that to be much better this year. It wasn't just Bateman that was open often and not thrown the ball, there were times when Lamar locked in on one side of the field, and missed open guys on the other. He has been great when he can throw on time, but he tended to lock in when the timing was off.

I like him, if he goes to the right coaching staff he could be a keeper. Very Mobil, smart, great accuracy, especially deep down field.

First Higgins requests a trade, now their best pass rusher, Trey Hendricksen wants out too, despite getting $14 mil and $15 mil this season and next. He has been a Ravens killer, would be glad to have him gone from that team (and on the Ravens)

I've seen mocks have 5 qbs go in the top 5. Wow, that would be a waste. History tells us that only 2 of the top 5 qbs in a draft will work out, at best. I cannot believe JJMcCarthy is a first round qb, no way. Nor Nix nor Penix, both struggle reading complex coverages, at least Nix can scramble a bit.

Well, reports are that they will Not pick up his 5th year option. So either they are going to extend him, cheaply, or this was a crazy trade

Bateman extended, good move, takes a while to recover from Lis Franc, he will break out this year... 3 years, $15 mil, great deal, if true, (the 5th year option due next week is $14 mil for 1 year) Per Espn OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Wide receiver Rashod Bateman is staying in Baltimore, after all. Bateman reached a two-year extension with the Ravens on Wednesday, which keeps the former first round pick in Baltimore through the 2026 season, the team announced. This surprising move was made eight days before the Ravens had to make a decision on whether to exercise Bateman's fifth-year option.

Nope, I could see them draft him if he is still around in the 6th or 7th, just for Todd...

Ladd, good, very good receiver, great hands, smart player who understands where to go against defenses to get open. Runs well after the catch. However, he has missed numerous games, not finished games because of a back problem. He may have a nice career as a slot receiver, but I would rather that be on another team, let them take the chance that he can stay healthy.

Matos is interesting, 6'7" 350, but raw, really, really raw. Day 3 they say, maybe even an undrafted gem.

The league announced that it found insufficient evidence to punish Flowers, per Espn

Eric on who he thinks will be the next break out player like Brandon Stephens was, was quite telling, perhaps. He said Bateman, that they feel they had too many receivers last year to get him the ball. But they feel comfortable this year with Bateman, Zay, Mark and Isaiah. So, maybe he is telling the truth, and they will NOT, go after a receiver via trade, nor reach for one in the draft. However, this could also be a smoke screen, Bateman is on the final year of his rookie deal, pick up his option or not in a week and a half... Now, Bateman looks great in his work out video, now going on year two removed from the Lis Frank injury, a time when most who suffered this injury usually rebound. Should be interesting.

I wish him the best but he just couldn't stay healthy and he wants to be the feature back.

I don't know that the "quality of player" is that great once you get outside the top 12 or so. Thus, moving up would be, essentially a waste, given how much it would cost to move that high, or even to move up to the mid 20's to nab a player you can essentially get at 30. If anything, I would hope that they move back, gain an extra pick or two if there is nothing obvious about who is there at 30. They lost a lot of free agents, many of them role players, some, special teams players and they need to replace them, cheaply

Texans wiped out part of his contract, per Espn, he will be a free agent at the end of the year if they don't work out a new deal.. quite interesting
