Yeah I also see West and Allen. Have no idea how this will work out. Especially with our O-line. Sheesh we can't even get to camp without a serious injury.

Sounds about right to me. We'll be competitive but we'll be better in one more year after we fix the OL. I don't see that happening this year.

Sure, the contract creates problems but a lot of qb's are paid ridiculously high salaries and we're stuck with it. That said, I agree with what Max posted above.

RT. Flacco is not the big problem.

About what I expected. Stanley, Yanda, and Lewis are solid. After that I have no idea.

Very cool!

If they cut him, maybe Boyle will get the message loud and clear.

Cut him loose.

They can't afford Orr and I don't think I want another ticking time bomb of an injury on the team. The Pitta experience was bad enough.

I think Max is right. We need another year after this one before we start decapitating the team personnel.

Good points! Except for Steve Smith, Flacco was deprived of all the things you mentioned. I'm wondering how Morningweg is going to work out. We need more emphasis on the running game and downfield play action.

Ah yes...thanks for the correction.

Urschell's the smarter one for sure and Jensen has easy to provoke. I just wonder if Urschell is big and powerful enough. Didn't Urschell play every game during the Super Bowl playoffs?

Tough call between Urschell and Jensen. I think I'd start out with Urschell but I'd be sliding Jensen in if he falters.

I think the D'Allesandris hire was a good one but I don't think any offensive mind is going to overcome the Center and Tackle problem unless they get better personnel in those two slots.

Really stepping out on a limb here, but I really liked what this guy had to say. Impressed with the last paragraph the most. Reminded me of Pagano's organized chaos theory on D. If we shore up the O-line somehow could be a good year. We need 2 good lineman. http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Greg-Roman-Discusses-How-Running-Game-Will-Change-in-2017/34ec9615-8955-44a6-b67f-ad92fef6bf54

IF the O line gets up to speed, Joe will deliver. But I don't have warm and fuzzies about Center and RT. How the line plays will determine if we make the playoffs or have another mediocre season. Joe needs protection and the backs need holes to run through.

Great outcome to a move we needed so badly to make. Glad he chose Bmore.

Isn't Decker a free agent if he gets cut?

Good article.

Quite possible. We don't have enough cap space to sign him and 2 offensive lineman. Unless they really do like Urschel and Jensen we'll get out bid.

I agree. They need to sign him to a short term deal too so they can evaluate his ability before they sign a long term contract with him.

The dead money is $4.4 million so we don't gain a whole lot. Anybody think we should go after Macklin? I don't know much about him.

$5 million 200 thousand. But do we get hit with dead money?
