I found this hard to believe but it's in the Times and it's Danny Snyder. Oh....on top of the abuse they did not get paid for anything Here's the whole article.... https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/how-redskins-used-cheerleaders-topless-photo-shoots-and-an-uneasy-night-out/ar-AAwEnTH?li=BBnb7Kz

He should make the team in one way or another because he won't count against the 10 man practice squad roster. He hits like Pollard....and he can punt! Good highlight video of him... http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Ravens-Awarded-Another-Rookie-And-Hes-From-Germany/d97826cc-a1a4-43a4-a162-16a25d767d84

Exactly what I was thinking. The season ended and I was totally fed up with what I saw. Like, "I can't go through this again." I lost interest and that is really bad because I've been a die hard fan from jump street. It's not simply the draft. It's all the moves of the off season. I'm grading this off season an A-. The big thing is that the Ravens got rid of a lot of dead weight....and upgraded that hole. How this season will pan out..... I don't know. But I'm very interested and intrigued today.

Love that! We can dream. We can dream.

Here's what leaves me unhappy about this draft. Eisenberg states it perfectly.... Really....not getting him tears me up...yet, like many things in life, I'll get over it.

You know this will happen...it's coming and will be real hard to sit through. I really like Jackson but mainly for the QB that I think he can develop into....and that takes time. He needs a year to develop. The Browns ruined so many QB's by throwing them to the wolves when they were ill prepared. Some of those guys might have developed into solid NFL QB's. Yet...Joe is on the hot seat and he helped put himself there....

I give it a B+. Hurst and Andrews will give the Joe and the Ravens a very solid TE squad. They now have blockers who can catch and 2 new receiving threats with great hands, They use 2 TE sets more than any team in the NFL and one major offensive weakness is addressed. Jackson is simply one great playmaker with swag who I think will become a solid NFL QB. They have time to develop him. I know fans think because of his massive amount of rushing TD's he is runner but he's really a pocket passer first. I don't see an RG3 guy here or Kapernick or Tyrod Taylor.....but I can understand others concerns...they are valid. Love the Brown pick. I truly believe he will be as good as his Dad if not better. He will need this yea to develop strength and technique but he should hold down the right side for years to come. The Ravens are close to having an O line that will were down and not be bullied by NFL D lines. That's huge. Scott...they say he's slow. I say no CB's can cover him if the pass is lofted high enough. Great redzone target. And Great hands. The Ravens now have a squad of sure handed receivers. Huge! Lasley could be Patrick Johnson or he could develop into a serious threat...we'll see. Averet is very good depth for a solid returning secondary. Elliott and Bozeman are solid players who have a decent shot at contributing and starting down the road. 12 Picks!!! Congratulations Ozzie!

yer Bio After two years of playing basketball for the Seahawks, Senat approached the football coaches about joining the team. His height and athleticism led them to accept, potentially as a tight end prospect. But he agreed to play right tackle after coaches saw his ability there. Senat started all 11 games in both 2016 and 2017 at that spot, showing off raw ability that could be harnessed at the next level. He was an occasional starter (22 times in 104 games) in four years on the hoops team at Wagner, averaging about two points and three rebounds per game. Analysis By Lance Zierlein NFL Analyst Draft Projection Round 7/PFA Overview Senat lacks bulk but looks the part in the uniform if he could add functional mass. Unfortunately, he looks better than he plays at this point and needs a great deal of technique work as both a run blocker and pass protector. Senat is a project who might be able to find a spot on a practice squad while he works on getting bigger and better. Strengths Athletic, long-limbed frame with tapered waist and room for additional muscle and mass Possesses very good reactive athleticism with ability to make sudden adjustments to moving targets Good quickness in pass slides Hands stayed tucked and punch-ready Can make fluid transitions from block to block on work-ups Runs feet through wash down blocks and down blocks Weaknesses Lacks necessary mass and muscle Will have to eat and live in the weight room for a year or two Ducks head and bends at waist when attempting to drop pad level Fails to gain leverage at point of attack Needs to get stronger Can't keep blocks centered Plays too far forward with weight and allows smaller men to play around him too quickly Hand strength is below average Punch timing and accuracy are off Has trouble anchoring up against power

In his first year as a starter, all Elliott did was earn unanimous first-team All-American and All-Big 12 honors, as well as being named a finalist for the Jim Thorpe Award that is presented to the nation's top defensive back. He tried for fourth nationally with six interceptions, returning two for touchdowns. The 12-game starter also totaled 63 tackles, 8.5 for loss, nine pass breakups, and three forced fumbles. Elliott started one game of 12 played as a sophomore, compiling 30 tackles, three for loss, an interception, and four pass breakups. In 2015, the former Under Armour All-American and all-state defensive back from Texas played in seven games on defense and special teams (13 tackles, two interceptions, one pass breakups, one forced fumble) despite missing time with an injury. Analysis By Lance Zierlein NFL Analyst Draft Projection Rounds 4-5 Overview Elliott has good size and is a physical defender who will need to play near the line of scrimmage to take advantage of his aggressiveness and minimize his athletic limitations. Scouts say he loves the game including the work that goes into it so he has a good shot of sticking on a roster as a backup strong safety with immediate coverage ability on kickoffs and punts. His draft stock will be tied heavily to his Combine workout. Strengths Well-built with NFL-caliber frame and good overall arm length Good football intelligence Quarterback of the secondary who works hard on the tape and gets his defense lined up Plays with downhill mindset Quality trigger after diagnosing hitch throws or running plays Often activated as an additional linebacker Had 8.5 tackles for loss in 2017 Embraces physicality of the position Won't pass up a chance to make a statement with a big hit Forced three fumbles in 2017 Decent tackle finisher for being tight-hipped Had six interceptions this year and nine total over just 26 games

He's no good if he can't catch. As for off the field issues.....makes no sense to bring this guy in unless he's seriously shown that he's learned from this and changed. Strengths Good size and great speed Instant jets off snap to torment cornerbacks who crowd and miss with their punch Devours coverage cushions Gets to top speed quickly and creates early vertical separation Seamless ability to change route angles Schoolyard athleticism with smoothness of movement in all directions Excellent bend to sink and explode out of breaks and give quarterbacks an open target Aggressive working back to the throw when needed Capable on all three levels Stacker and tracker Puts cornerbacks on his hip while focusing to bring the deep ball in Has "to the house" catch and run potential Uses strong stiff-arm to deny tacklers Averaged 8.8 yards after catch in 2017

https://youtu.be/6RWoGdVHmug He actually locates the ball...and he actually catches it. This will be something new in a Ravens uniform. Looks like a nice redzone target.

Scott was recruited by Maryland and Kentucky out of Rock Hill High School in South Carolina, but he was a non-qualifier academically. So he enrolled at Ellsworth Community College for three years, redshirting in 2013 and finishing his career there as an all-conference performer in 2015 (45 receptions, 668 yards, nine touchdowns). Scott joined NMSU in 2016, leading the team with five touchdown catches (23 receptions, 283 yards). Scouts got to see his full game in 2017, as did Sun Belt coaches, who voted him first-team all-conference because he accumulated 1,079 yards and nine scores on 76 receptions. His one-handed touchdown catch against Arizona State was one of the best plays of the season, showing scouts how he can combine his athleticism and strong hands. Analysis By Lance Zierlein NFL Analyst Draft Projection Rounds 5-6 NFL Comparison Kenny Golladay Overview Ascending prospect with rare height and length for the position. Scott saw both his production and confidence explode in 2017 and consistently found ways to win once the ball was in the air. Scott doesn't have the quickness to win underneath, but he does use stride length and hand fighting to create space for himself as a downfield threat. With experience outside and from the slot, Scott will be an intriguing prospect with backup wideout potential. Strengths Wiry frame with long arms and plus ball skills Extremely competitive when ball is in the air Extended catch radius and well-timed leaps make jump balls a likely loss for cornerbacks Showed off ball skills and catch radius with jaw-dropping, one-handed touchdown catch against Arizona State Plays stronger than lanky frame would indicate Route contact does not disrupt him Uses physicality at top of the route and down the field to create wider throwing windows for quarterbacks Smart with route adjustments and works open for scrambling quarterbacks Ball tracker with a feel for subtle hand work for late separation Focus sharpens as the ball gets closer Gets safeties leaning with quality head-fakes at his route stems on posts

Young has had a rough go of things at times in his life. He lived with a friend during his childhood because his mother, a single parent, had troubles paying the rent. Then, during his sophomore season with the Bruins, he battled through the death of his grandmother and a cancer diagnosis for his father. Now, NFL scouts are giving him high marks for his on-field performance, especially after a first-team All-Pac-12 senior year where he led UCLA with 110 tackles, 8.5 for loss, one sack, and three passes deflected. Young had a strong junior season, as well, and coaches voted him second-team all-conference for his efforts. He started all 12 games in 2016, making 90 tackles, 8.5 for loss, with five sacks, three passes defensed, and three fumble recoveries. The previous year, Young started 12 of 13 games, posting 69 stops, five for loss, and two forced fumbles. He even started six games as a true freshman, playing all 13 contests and recording 35 stops. Young was a highly sought-after four-star recruit (ranked a top 10 linebacker prospect nationally) coming out of the New Orleans area. Analysis By Lance Zierlein NFL Analyst Draft Projection Round 7/PFA NFL Comparison D.J. Alexander Overview Young is a lean, run-around WILL linebacker who has the speed to pursue plays all over the field, but may lack the consistency and play demeanor needed to find many NFL reps. He will run well at the combine and should offer special teams help if given the chance. Young's speed and athletic ability could land him on a roster, but he may be looking over his shoulder every offseason. Strengths Angular, tapered build Off to the races when the ball flows wide Smooth athlete with plus flexibility and agility Has the quickness to play ahead of blocks Able to read basic keys and follow them to the running lane Has stalking speed and pace once he gets locked in on the running back Rangy linebacker who can stay on the field for all three downs Has the feet to cover backs out of the backfield Able to drop and shade passing lanes Should become an immediate special teams contributor

The nephew of former college All-American and NFL Pro Bowl left tackle Bryant McKinnie didn't make an immediate impact with the Tide due to the team's depth at the position. He redshirted in 2013, and played in just one game the following year. Averett was going to compete for playing time as a sophomore, but biceps and elbow injuries before the season squashed that hope. He also suffered a broken finger before the playoff semifinal against Michigan State, allowing him to play in just six games as a special teamer. Averett finally got his shot in 2016, starting 13 games and playing in all 15 (48 tackles, three for loss, sack, eight pass breakups). He was picked on regularly but used his toughness to stick with plays. Averett was the team's defensive MVP in their national semifinal win over Washington (eight tackles, sack, forced fumble). He was a starter all 14 games of his senior season, posting 48 stops, four for loss, an interception, and eight pass breakups in 2017. Averett has the athleticism for the position, posting the top long jump mark in high school nationally as a junior (25 feet, two inches) and winning New Jersey state titles in the 55-meter dash and high jump. He got a chance at receiver before his sophomore year, but cornerback is his home for now, and in the future. Analysis By Lance Zierlein NFL Analyst Draft Projection Rounds 3-4 NFL Comparison Tre'Davious White Strengths Plays with excellent reactive athleticism Twitchy and sticky in man coverage with loose hips and easy feet Smooth opening and sprinting Has ability to stay in phase from snap to whistle In position for quick tackles when he gives up completion Plays with decent route recognition and will run routes for receivers at times Championship high school 100M and long jump participant who is very capable of carrying long speed down the field Quick to stick-and-drive on throws in front of him Agile with athletic talent to recover from early setback and get back into coverage Has footwork to mirror and match early release in press coverage Played through sports hernia in 2016 Able to cover kicks and play jammer on punt return

ER takes a time out to help certain members eyes....

I never understood that selection. It looked like he could find the soft open spot and was hard to bring down. Here's a RAVENS STAT: How he fits: No team loves using tight ends more than Baltimore. Last season, the Ravens ran an NFL-high 583 plays with two or more tight ends. That was 136 more than any other team in the league. This explains why Baltimore drafted Andrews in addition to Hurst. While Hurst is considered a better blocker, Andrews is the more accomplished pass-catcher. Andrews has been described a big slot receiver. He does a great job of locating soft spots in zones and uses his size as a mismatch for defensive backs when he flexes out. Ravens assistant general manager Eric DeCosta said Andrews reminds him of former Baltimore tight end Dennis Pitta. "He's a guy with linear body who runs well and has very good hands," DeCosta said. "He makes the tough catch and is a very smart player."

Ravens have seven picks on Day 3: fourth round (Nos. 118, 122 and 132), fifth round (No. 152), sixth round (Nos. 190 and 212) and seventh round (No. 238)

And I can say that about every teams total picks in this years draft. And most of it would be true because when reality slaps these guys in the face, when they take the field in the NFL, it will be what we can't see.....their inner strength, drive, tenacity and football IQ that will or will not be there. You look for Bart Scott's....and you can't identify them in such a large crowd as all the players in this draft. But you look for the "Football Player". He may not have the size or speed but there just might be a "Doug Fluttie/Drew Brees" lurking inside. The Ravens want that guy.
