Ravens rookie safety Omar Brown has been released, according to a league source. Shocked. Well he will be playing in another city. They have cut undrafted rookie defensive lineman Terrence Moore and former Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Cord Howard, Undrafted rookie wide receiver Dorian Graham is another player who's being released today. The Ravens have informed undrafted rookie offensive tackle Jack Cornell that he's being cut. If he clears waivers, he's expected to join the Ravens' eight-man practice squad.

thundercleetz Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I cannot believe we cut Brown either. What more could he have done to prove himself? Especially surprising considering Sean Considine is always one sneeze away from a concussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yagersports Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Maybe the coaching staff only thinks that he performs against 2's and 3's??? I'm not sure either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robjr83 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Meanwhile Kindle's still on the roster. Stairmaster remains uncutable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yagersports Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Stairmaster lol......nice. Maybe he'll turn that into Sackmaster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robjr83 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I think Bustmaster would be more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaccoForever Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Aaron Wilson told Ken Weinman on 105.7 the fan that Brown lacked speed and that he more than likely will be placed on the practice squad. He made plays in the first 3 preseason games but disappeared last night, needed to keep it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmax Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Brown may lack speed and size but he is always around the ball...he lead that soft Ravens defense that we saw last night with 6 tackles. The rest were No Tackling Mo Fo's. They let the coaches and their team mates down. Considine sucks. I watched him. He's out of position, gets faked out, can't cover or tackle...he should not be in a Ravens uniform. Update: Rainey is a Raven. Kindle can't make a play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yagersports Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I think it's way too early to say Kindle can't make a play. If he's this way next year during camp I would cut him, but his injury was very serious. If he's showing progress we gotta give this kid some time. His potential is through the rough. Omar may be doing well against 2nd and 3rd stringers, but cmon, his potential has a very low ceiling. As far as our defense last night, it was 2nd and 3rd stringers against the Rams 1st teamers. I read a stat that stated as soon as the talent levels evened up, the Ravens didn't give up a TD. I'm just saying, our coaching staff has made some pretty good decisions over the years here. I think they deserve the benefit of the doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddog271 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 And we kept Tyrod because of what? Painter got fucked over in this deal Tyrod has pictures of Ozzie with the Coache's wife. but Painter did throw like 5 INTs this preseason.. it's not like he played great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunno Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 I would have liked to keep one of those two NTs. The IR list seems pretty hefty at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yagersports Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Painter makes horrible decisions at least 3-4 times a game agaonst 2s and 3s. What has he ever done with the 1s that has ever made anyone think he wasnt cutable? Tyrod on the other hand can do what Painter does and he can scramble. Simply put Tyrod can do more, even if that more isnt all that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutsideRzAcE Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Seneca Wallace and Sage Rosenfels were cut. It would be nice if we picked up one of those two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 Painter is at best OK. I have seen him play in real games and he blows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yagersports Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Seneca Wallace would prob be a very good option for back up QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 I just saw Terrance Gunaway is available. He is a load for short yardage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmax Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 There is no difference between the QB's that everybody mentions and Mitchell, Banks, Case, Wright, Jim Harbaugh... There's really nothing to get upset about here. The Ravens can't win with any of these guys. I know this doesn't belong here, but thinking about Ravens QB's of the past brought this hilarious true story up... This is an epically comical story courtesy of SI's Jeff Pearlman, that includes the following absurd characters: Rich Gannon, Elvis Grbac, the Kansas City Chiefs, and a dim-witted People magazine photographer. Prepare to feel life-long sympathy for Grbac.Pearlman's yarn: One of my favorite all-time stories is about Elvis Grbac (left), Rich Gannon (right) and People Magazine's Sexiest Men issue from 1998. It is both outlandish and 100-percent true.Back in the day I knew many People staffers, and they were all cool, fun, intelligent-and woefully ignorant about sports. Every year, in planning the Sexiest Men issue, People's editors would ask a bunch of us at Sports Illustrated for suggestions and insight. In 1998, for a reason I'll never understand, they decided not to seek out help.The magazine chose Rich Gannon as its Sexiest Athlete. At the time, Gannon was a member of the Kansas City Chiefs. Still a couple of seasons removed from his golden tenure with the Raiders, Gannon was 33, handsome and likable. In other words, a solid choice. Yet People, being People, simply informed the photographer assigned to the piece that the Sexiest Athlete was the Chiefs' quarterback. Hence, he took pictures of the Chiefs' quarterback. Well, one of the Chiefs' quarterbacks: Elvis Grbac.Yup.The pictures made their way back to the New York offices, and editors were dumbfounded. This was their Sexiest Athlete? Yet upon learning the truth, no one with the magazine had the heart (guts?) to tell Grbac that an unfathomable mistake had been made. As a result, Elvis Grbac reigns as People's 1998 Sexiest Athlete.The article's final line says it all: "His personality makes him sexy."Amen. Yup...unbelievable but true.
