He could have killed somebody or himself. Or both!

And WTF they might as well trade Jimmy Smith while they're at it. They ought to be able to get a decent pick for him.

If you wanna feel better, let's listen to Mikey; https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/ravens/bs-sp-ravens-preston-decosta-20190312-story.html

Well, I tell ya Max...Cleveland will win the AFC North this year and will be the best team in that division for several seasons. Its the new normal. Still, we really are trying to get stronger and faster and get REAL cap room which the franchise hasn't had since 2013. The question is, will they stick to the plan or join 'the sky is falling' model?

The more I read about Cody Ford the more I'd take him for LG. He might even be available later than pick 22 allowing us to trade down to get more picks.

Thanks!!

Does anybody know a good site that ranks the top 100 prospects? Does Pro Football Focus do that, maybe?

Sounds good but I’m haunted by the time we dropped out of the first round and wound up with Sergio Kindle and Terrence Cody.

Don't know if I swallow all of this but it is interesting: https://russellstreetreport.com/2019/03/04/nfl-draft/trading-back-best-move-in-deep-draft/

Agree.

Oh yeah, Cody also plays guard. I saw him as a possible LG for us.

Looks likE I forgot to post the link. I meant to post an article about Oklahoma tackle Cody and suggest him as a rounde one pick. Now I can’t remember where I saw it so I can’t post the link itself. Sheez,, embarrassing even for an old fart like me.

This guy would be a good pick for us at LG in round 1.

We needed him. Like Grubber said above though, I hope he can stay out of trouble.

There should be plenty of running backs available on day 2-3 of the draft. I don't think it's a good idea to draft one until round 3 or 4 at the highest.

Me too and Boyle can catch as well as block. Maybe they want 2 blocking TE's at times?

Mixed feelings about this one. Weddle was game savvy and a good leader on defense. But his skills were definitely down. All-in-all, sorry to see him go but it had to be done. Now the question is 'Who takes his place?'

Maybe this rumor simply isn't true.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Don't waste a first round pick on a C.

Well at least there are a good number of possibilities. And you're right...a win-now team would be the most likely landing spot.

Another reason to trade him now.

Then I definitely agree. Trade him while we can still get something for him and before he gets injured or suspended again.

What can we get realistically for Jimmy?

Would any of you give up a 3rd rounder this year and a third rounder next year to get into this year's second round? Do you think Decosta will trade Jimmy Smith for a second round pick or is that too high a compensation for him? Third might be more realistic, no?

Yeah, I think cutting him was premature. And the gun wasn't even loaded.
