2 months and we already have a Chris Redman type issue... Only instead of a tree stand, Lamar is going over the handlebars of a jet ski; dope... I have no feelings for football this year, kimd of reminds me of the strike shortened season where the Slurs won the *Super Bowl, meh...

That won't work, it will cause the players trouble with breathing, not too mention the pounding it will take. A shield for vision is one thing, and they get scratched often, but the face mask allows air for the player to breathe, yes even just covering the front of the mask will cause breathing issues, anyone who has worn a helmet can tell you this...

There is just no way to play this sport safe from viruses; none. You can test all you want, but 10 days before you show signs? Then another 2-3 weeks before you are no longer able to pass it on? Not too mention how badly some get sick, some like a cold, others far worse than the flu... Sure, this will always be around now, maybe we never see a cure or prevention, but isn't it worth waiting to see? This ecconomy is still going to go down, no sense tempting people to gamble on sports, save them from their selves this year; just say no to sports, football, this year.

The next two weeks will tell us as more & more people go out with or against orders....Gerogia, Wisconsin, California, Florida, watch these states and the states around them. If they jump in cases two week from now, or drop in cases, we will have an amswer. But the teams, the leagues have to decide what happena if one player on one team cpmes down with it? Or two? Is the team now bounced from the achedules? You know the owners want to games to be played, but what about season ticket holders? Even if they are played, no fans, do fans get a refund? Millions, 100's of millions could be lost not even counting the jobs no longer needed if fans are not in the stands; concessions money is a big boost or loss.

It all depends on how things go once they open the entire country and we see if the nuber of cases ballons again. Time is all we have to go on right now, once we start people flying everywhere again, people going back to work, things could get ugly... As far as the Ravens, win 1 playoff game, look like you belong in the playoffs, then we can talk. 121 mil on the defense, no real practice, this should be eh, interesting...

Correct, both had the best hands in college football last season. They fight for the ball, have strong hands after the catch, soft when needed, neither is a body catcher unless they have to be; they know how to be a receiver..

Imagine if he had been the one to pull the gun... It's a gun, no need to emphasize how close she pointed it at him, it can kill from 100 feet away...

Yep, hard worker, knows what he wants and how to go about getting there, solid hands, good speed, just get that quickness in & out of breaks, yes you can improve your quickness..

If he passes the physical & reaches his talent. He was not as good as thought for the precious two, three teams he played for, but looked pretty good with the Seahawks... We shall see

Both Skura and Murkari did very well last year with this style of blocking scheme. With strong guards next to them, it should be a very good line once again

Both Phillips and Bredesen are good at run blocking, Phillips the more powerful. But they also struggle with pass blocking in different ways. Phillips with speed rushes, and locating stunts amd blitzes. Bull rushers he handles well, it's mostly his foot work; not the quickest feet. Bredesen is the opposite almost; he gets bull rushed easily, but he is pretty smart, he sees the stunts, blitzes coming to some extent, very well for a college player, coaching helped him. He too does not have the quickest of feet, but both players have the potential to be solid NFL guards with time. I expect Phillips to really be the better player with his natural strength, he is a mauler.

Right papa, for all of the rookies in the league this year, with no pre camps, posibly no camp at all, this is going to be a difficult fime to be a rfa or even a rookie. This year of all the years, 4 pre-season games are needed if they can even play the games.

The Mad man is not a 3 down tackle, but in this rotation, he will be a force to move...

I wasn't thrilled with the rb pick but understand it, disappointed with not get an edge rusher but that is how the draft shook out. Overall, very pleased with the choices and the potential this draft class holds. I would give it a B with the real chance of being an A++ Oh & they got a road grader in Phillips, if he can learn to pass block, they will have Yanda's replacement and a great offensive line

These last few picks are Raven like players, natural leaders, over compensating for their lack of talent. Nice picks, overall a nuce draft with potential to be a great draft

As I said Max, I understand the pick, the value was great. Time will tell if one of the players the Ravens needed that were drafted after Dobbins and before their pick at 60 will turn out to be better. I am fine with the draft this far, it is how it played out, Higgins being there for the start of the 2nd round was a shock, I am sure especially to the Bengals. He would have been a great addition to this team, maybe..... Could the Ravens have been able and willing to trade back into the first to nab Higgins? Only Magnum will know I suppose, possibly Zeus & Apollo, but they are "barking madd"... These guys, aside from our great first pick, will be in training pads for a while. We have our return man for sure, if kickoffs are still a thing.

Well, 4 picks in the 3rd, all 4th to 5th round players. Got a road grader at guard who can't pass block: but a hard worker with potential. Finally a fast wide out with great hands, but he can't run routes and doesn't adjust well to the ball in the air, nor does he do well with tight coverage. An undersized defensive linemen who gets pushed out of the way in run stopping and doesn't get off the ball quickly. Even Harris is a potential guy, but he lacks instincts, gets fooled easy on play action... Look, this draft went against the Ravens, all of those great wide outs went early and often. I guess Cinci didn't want to trade out of the 1st pick in the 2nd... Hopefully these players turn out, but they were all reaches save for Dobbins who was a great value pick, if unneeded. I guess this means the end of the wind blown back after the team reached for him a draft or two ago.... No way they keep 4 backs..

Don't know Max, are those 4 players going to make the roster? It all depends on who they draft now. Trading back at this point while drafting a runningback earlier makes the rb pick look stupid. Don't blame the playoff loss nor the running game taking a hit on the Ingram injury. That was all play calling and poor play. Gus was running well; Dobins is a nice back but he is not Jamal Lewis, not even close my friend.

Trade 2nd, 2nd round pick to the Pats.....

Sure they are, neither is very reliable as a consistent pass catcher, both run well when no one is covering them, and they both get nicked up easily

Wow, head scratcher, value pick but rb was not a position of need jeepers

They already have a Shenault in Boykin; same player they don't need him. Higgins is a different animal all together. Great hands, strong, fights for the ball, adjusts to it in the air and knows how to use his body to keep the defender away. He is also very good off of press coverage, something Shenault nor any of the current Raven receivers are not skilled. 2 2nd, 2 3rds, I expect, if they keep em both, for them to get a very good lineman for the offense, maybe a raw tackle who can play inside, like Jones from Houston...

Eh, not thrilled with Lewis, he gets lazy often, typical Bama lineman, his success is more on the talent he plays against & with. If you watch him against the better teams he doesn't show up.. I would prefer Davis from Auburn, much better prospect.

Use a 3rd & a 4th to move up for Higgins, get a 7th back or a low pick next year. Other shots, Epenesa from Iowa, Delpit, LSU and Winfield Jr, Minnesota. I know, they dont really need another safety or corner but those later two would be great value and lock the secondary down for years. Mims is interesting in the 2nd, but I question his hands, route running etc. More of a late 3rd pick imo.

Yep, trade up as high as you think you need to go to get him.
