I don't think any owner wants a 50 year old stadium. Like you said, they want something to increase the already obscene amount of money they make.

Got a good laugh out of that post!.

Yeah I think that was the stake through our heart. After the pittance we got for Elway combined with Bullet Bob's crappy treatment of everybody, the interest just melted away. And so did the fans at Memorial Stadium.

Interesting article on the trade-down option... http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Should-Ravens-Trade-Out-Of-No-6-Spot/7b599e7a-2f5c-4dad-9b45-5f2545ab51df

Yeah, well the players' rankings will be on a roller-coaster until April so right now it's hard to tell who's going to take what, when. But I will say if this draft is weak as T suggests, trading down might not be the best strategy. And it would take 2-3 years to assemble a highly competitive team if it is a weak one.

Good article. I don't know if we could afford any of them but the list is impressive. And I agree it would be best to take a playmaker with the 6th pick in the draft if one is there. If not we either take the tackle or trade down for more picks. How deep is this draft supposed to be in talent, anybody heard?

Probably just mediocre until the playoffs and then they soared.

I think Ozzie & company will do well this year in the draft and free agency, but it might take another year after that for us to become dangerous again.

Yeah they moved Oher to LT. PFF still grades him low.

That's exactly how I see it too. The playoffs will be good enough for me for the few years. I just hope Oz can get more and better parts.

Yes. I was happy with all of Joe's comments. If he keeps Linta in line, this could have a very happy ending.

Good words from Joe. I hope Linta backs him up. http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Late-For-Work-121-Is-Joe-Flacco-Open-To-A-Contract-Restructure-Come-On-I-Want-To-Win/af6ba71e-2c8c-4012-b027-86266bcdb619

Sorry, my mistake..no content here.

After much hand-wringing, I'm rooting for Denver and Arizona. I can't stand Brady and I'd like to see Carson Palmer and Fitzgerald in the SB. Plus, maybe if Manning actually wins the next two games, he'll retire and I won't have to watch him at all anymore.

Hah! I'm in the same boat!

I'm getting ready to jump on the Treadwell bandwagon. We need multiple threats. SR may not be the same next year and I haven't heard anything about how Perriman is doing now. However, you have to salivate over the prospect of having all three plus Aiken healthy and productive next year.

Good point Cleetz.

I like Engram too but then what is the reason we can't develop any? Poor talent selection? That means the FO.

Yup, I agree with you. I think it's either Treadwell or a pass rusher. Probably the latter.

Are you guys saying we need a new receivers' coach?

There's nothing wrong about that scenario but it leaves out getting a playmaker for the offense. How about this guy in the 2nd if he's still there... http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1825087/josh-doctson

I wouldn't believe anything that guy has to say about anything.

Steelers receivers: Since '09, Steelers have drafted Mike Wallace, Antonio Brown, Emmanuel Sanders, Markus Wheaton, Martavis Bryant. Highest pick: 82nd overall. — Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) January 10, 2016

I think Seattle signed him to an extension. He won't be a free agent until 2017.

Dirty play like Burfict pulled should result in immediate ejection as well as a league fine and suspension. It's the only way the play will get cleaner.
