It's true Brian wore out his message here but I do think he should go in the ROH. First Ravens Super Bowl win for the franchise gets him in.

No he's not worth it. Goes to show how desperate the D is for pass rushers.

Schmuck writes a good article about Lamar and where the Ravens stand as of now... https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/ravens/bs-sp-lamar-jackson-has-a-tough-act-to-follow-20190524-story.html

True, Max and I certainly hope it works out that way!

I don't think we'll get a good read until the preseason games start especially the one where the regulars play most or half of the game in week 3

Yeah, I agree with you Papa about Lamar. I hope I do see progress from him. I think Judon and Onwuasor would be the big disappointments. Most importantly for this year I want to see Lamar progress. If he does that would be great. We wouldn't even have to make the playoffs for me to be happy if he shows progress

Yep...that's bad.

Yeah, I think these latest pick-ups are just roster filler for the most part. I'm hoping Shane Ray has a comeback year. The rest, meh. BTW is Brown's injury a Lisfranc? If so I'll be surprised if he makes a training camp debut too.

It does look like a step back but somebody had to fill those positions. Sure most if not all of them are junk but who else was available?

Every game for every team in the AFC North will be very tough. Very tough. Right now it's anybody's team to win the division---even the Bungles. Should be an exciting year for sure.

Agree!

Looking at our offensive makeover of the team through free agency and the draft along with what Eric DaCosta has said, I'm getting the feeling that the Ravens just might revolutionize the NFL. Lamar, RG, and the third quarterback from Penn State whose name I can't remember are all of the same basic mold. All three are quarterbacks who can run (and, hopefully pass) with speed and agility. They are building a new receiver room with speed. Looks like if you can't run fast you won't be on a Ravens' team. I'm sure hoping for success. Last season was fun until the playoff game. If what we saw happening on the field mimics more like we saw during the regular season, this team will be big news!

It's going to have more to do with Lamar's passing improving more than anything else Very gratifying to hear Lamar is working with a personal passing coach this off-season. Shows a real commitment and leadership.

I like the concept a lot but I agree with Papa about Lamar not looking to run so much.

If he does hold up and Lamar does too, then the skys the Limit.

Good draft considering they had no 2nd round pick Of course we really don't know how it will look a year from now but it seems promising. Really like the pick of the receiver from Notre Dame and the Offensive lineman they drafted too. Still not sure about how Marquise will hold up in the NFL. We'll know more after the preseason starts.

Well sounds like it could work but I'm concerned how is he going to make out at 166 lbs in the NFL? I feel similarly about Lamar. Great moves by DeCosta on the trade to get more picks though.

The draft is always a crap shoot. I don't believe any of the mock drafts. Teams spread so much fog leading up to it you need a bs detector. I would like to see Ravens get Anthony Brown but there's a ton of good WRs around. I would be happy if they drafted an offfensive lineman. While I know we need a replacement for both Zadarius Smith and Suggs, I think we've got an outstanding secondary and a few good potential young linebackers on the team. Preferably they go O-line, WR, or Edge Rusher. Those are my top 3 priorities, But what the hell do I know??

Yup..good stuff! I can't wait for him to announce.

I agree with you on Ford. If he's there at 22 I'd take him and move him to LG.

I'd like to see the stats on those taken after the first 3 rounds. Even lower than round 1-3 success rates I'm sure. The success rate is 0 though if you don't draft any.

Maybe we can have both. Draft OL in round 1 then package a 3 and 4 to move back into round 2 and still get a really good WR. It's a deep draft for receivers.

Great news,,,I just hope he gets more accurate.

Don't you think we should go WR for our first pick? Skill positions get gobbled up and we don't have (yet) a second rounder. Then OL and ILB? https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/ravens/

Hmmm... I don’t think 9 wins gets us into the playoffs.
