4 rbs, is that one less safety, offensive lineman, defensive lineman, edge, db?
This is a tough roster to crack. Ali has shown well, tough runner, but suspect hands in the passing game. He is okay as a returner,kickoff, so he can cover 2 spots.
But the offensive line is going to need what 9?
4 rbs,
3 he's
3 qbs
6 wr's
That's 25, is that your offense?
Kicker, punter, long snapper
Leaves 25 for the defense

As the Ravens entered their final week of the preseason Monday, Head Coach John Harbaugh gave updates on a host of injured Ravens players.
Outside linebacker Adisa Isaac, who suffered a dislocated elbow in Saturday's preseason win in Dallas, will miss more time than originally hoped.
Tests revealed Isaac has ligament damage and he will undergo surgery, Harbaugh said. Had it been a clean dislocation, it would've been about a three-week recovery."It's not a season-ender, though," Harbaugh said. "Maybe midway in the season, sometime, he'll have a chance to come back."
Harbaugh also said third-round rookie offensive lineman Emery Jones Jr., who has yet to practice due to a shoulder injury the Ravens knew about when he was drafted, will not be ready for the start of the regular season.
Jones can stay on the non-football injury list, which means he will not take up a spot on the 53-man roster due next Tuesday. Harbaugh previously said he expected Jones to return at some point in training camp, but doctors are remaining cautious.
"The surgeon, the best I can tell you, he wants to be sure that it's fully right," Harbaugh said. "That's the way it should be. We respect that. It's going to take a little longer, so we won't be counting on him early on in the season."
The most consequential player on Harbaugh's rundown was tight end Isiaah Likely, who underwent surgery for a small fracture in his foot.
Harbaugh said he has not received an update on whether Likely is still a possibility to play Week 1 in Buffalo, but even if he did, he probably would be guarded with divulging much information considering the circumstances.
"It was always going to be in that range – first few weeks," Harbaugh said. "It might be harder to pin me down on that one."
The Ravens could place Likely on injured reserve at roster cutdown, which would save a spot, but would also mean the talented tight end would be sidelined for at least the first four games.
While Reuben Lowery has received plenty of well-deserved buzz at Ravens training camp, and even more after getting an interception in Saturday's preseason win, another undrafted rookie defensive back has also impressed.
The 5-foot-9 Keyon Martin came untouched up the middle to drill 6-foot-5 Cowboys backup quarterback Joe Milton for a safety in the first quarter. Martin also had a tackle for a 5-yard loss on the previous play.
Harbaugh said he's appreciated the energy Martin has brought to the Under Armour Performance Center each day, and the feisty Louisiana-Lafayette product has backed it up on the field.
"He has an infectious personality – always smiling, always energetic, always ready to roll," Harbaugh said. "He's into and he's played well, and he's making a run at this thing [the 53-man roster]."
Long snappers always try to remain out of the headlines, but Senior Special Teams Coach Randy Brown said Nick Moore deserves more appreciation.
Moore, who bounced back from a torn Achilles in 2023 to return to form last season, is entering his sixth season in Baltimore and has established himself as a critical part of the specialist trio.
"Nick Moore is the Lamar Jackson of long snappers in the NFL because he does everything right," Brown said.
"Go back and watch the game this [Saturday]. He had eight, pretty much 12 o'clock snaps. … He's got to block defensive tackles, sometimes defensive ends. We ask him to block different than any of the other 32 teams in the NFL. And he covers as well as anybody and he's 260 pounds. Doesn't get enough credit."
-
"He will be the kicker,” Harbaugh said, via the team’s website. “He has earned it, and he’ll get another chance to get back out there next week and kick some more and just keep improving. But, I just appreciate the fact that he wants to make them all, but he had a good night."

Yep, a solid game all around, I believe relatively healthy.

Pass to Wade who scoots for 11 and gets out of bounds
Trying for Wester again deep down the right sideline, not even close, Wester gets no separation and cant find the ball
Pass over the middle to Johnson for 7, time out
24 seconds
3rd and 4
From the 50
Rush scrambles, hits Miller deep down the right sideline, who rolls out of bounds, time runs out, but the Operator never stopped the clock
16 seconds left, 29 of Dallas. Pass complete to Miller again on a short crosser for 7, time out, 9 seconds left
42 yard field goal by Fruity Loops is dead center
18-7 Ravens half time

Check check, pass to Kolar for 8, time out
43 seconds left

Milton goes deep to the endzone, Lowery picks it off! Ravens get it back
Looks like the Ravens are gonna run the half out
-
2:21 left
Smoke screen to Wade who made a nifty 1 handed catch then took off like a shot for 15 yards taking is to the 2 min warning
Complete to Kolar for 8
Pass over the middle to Ali, right through this hands to a Dallas defender at the Ravens 45
-
A promising start to the series saw Walker make another nice grabs for 15 yards, stalls after some poor blocking by the line and a penalty for being lined up wrong.
Loop with a 51 yard field goal dead center and we'll up the uprights!
15-7 Ravens 3:52 left in the half
Milton has missed several throws to open recievers
Big pressure by the Ravens defense, forces Milton to run for his life and throw it away.
Punt forces a fair catch
-
Cowboys drive stalls just past the 50, they go for it on 4th and a long 1, looks like the Ravens stoned them, but virtual measurement = longer and I don't trust it, Ravens take over
-
In the, the guy cant stay healthy department, Isaac is down after the kickoff that was returned to the 35. He did walk off under his power
-
Ravens, get a gift on a tough catch by Wade that should have been incomplete, get a 1st down at the Cowboy 4, Ali up the middle for no gain
Ravens have out gained the Boys so far 165 to -5, yes, minus 5 yards for Dallas through 1 quarter
Ali 2 carries up the middle only able to get to the 3, 3rd and goal
Right side for Ali, gets to the 1, 4th and goal, Harbs going for it
Rush rolls right, pumps, hits Keith Kirkwood for a touchdown Ravens!
12-7 Ravens 9:49 to play,, 1st half
-
Welp, a quick out to Wester, gets picked and returned for 6, pass was there, Wester never turned around.
7-5 Boys
-
The punt team was able to pin the Cowboys at their six, where a few fine defensive plays later, Martin sprinted in untouched, unseen, for a sack- safety
A terrific drive by the offense, that saw Walker continue to shine, 5 catches, 47 yards in the first quarter, several of those tough catches.
2 dropped passes by players likely to stay on special teams, one at the 3 yard line, that was likely a touchdown and we get Loop kicking a short field goal.
5-0 Ravens
-
That will be a blast, enjoy papa
-
Let's see if the players can keep improving, better offensive line play, more pressure on the qb, solid covers, return game, field goals & extra pts.
Healthy
-
On another note, the Comandos and Ravens agreed to cancel their joint practice next week, schedule conflict with the Ravens playing on Saturday but the Comandos playing on Monday. Good choice
-
Unfortunately there is likely going to be some growing pains when it comes to a field goal kicker, Loop or anyone else. we cant expect the 1st kicker they pick to be perfect, how many did it take to find Tucker?
The average of successful field goals in the league the past 10 years or so is between 81 and 85%
Tucker was in the 90's, before the past 2 years.....

According to a new study by sport trac, worth $6 BILLION, up 17%

As good as the offense is, working against some excellent coverage is a really good test. Same for the defense.

Skyler Thompson Steelers, completed 20 of 28 passes for 233 yards and 3 touchdowns. Will Clarke and his cronies proclaim him qb 1, he'll of Fame bound?
I think not

Ah yes, a true pioneer and brave man, thanks papa
