tsylvester Posted August 30, 2015 Posted August 30, 2015 Jamison took his guess earlier this week- http://espn.go.com/blog/baltimore-ravens/post/_/id/21199/baltimore-ravens-end-of-camp-53-man-roster-projection I think it was pretty obvious what the roster would look like, with only a few question marks; how many and which receivers, how many and which corners, who the bleep will be the return men..... After last nights game, it was clear for all those questions, but the answers are not exactly great news... Jamison has them keeping 6 receivers with Butler and Carter heading to the PS, Robinson, Nelson, D Brown and Steelman cut. Frankly Butler has been a big disappointment, he simply can't get open, does not run his routes properly and forget breaking tackles or making people miss should he catch one..... I will be a bit surprised if they keep Waller on the roster, especially after yesterday's game playing with the first unit. He showed just how raw he is, how far he has to go.... This position on the team is very, very scary. None of them aside from Smith seems to get seperation, or are able to get off the jam, still.... Runningback, he thinks Tousaints will go to the PS, with Magee sticking on the roster while Tali heals... Only 8 on the line, yes, he thinks Reid sticks again, like a bad odor after Max is done in the bathroom...... Lewis-Moore and Bilukidi I have to agree with him here. Lewis-Moore I was hoping would reach his potential this year, but this far, nope.... 5 corners is risky if they stick with that, but what choice do they have; after two of them, the rest stink and you need to keep players at other positions.... Asa seems to be their choice for returning kicks & punts, ouch. He scares me and yes, I know, he had a good return in the game that resulted in no points, but that is another thread.......... Quote
vmax Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 8 more to go.......... The Ravens’ cuts are:•G Leon Brown (Alabama)•WR DeAndre Carter (Sacramento State)•CB Tramain Jacobs (Texas A&M)•G/T Marcel Jones (Nebraska)•P Justin Manton (Louisiana Monroe)•WR Aldrick Robinson (Southern Methodist)•LS Patrick Scales (Utah State)•WR Trent Steelman (Army)http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/DeAndre-Carter-Among-First-Eight-Ravens-Cut/7ef7f88b-641a-4dce-a924-9c8bfe2dc10c Quote
TBird Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Carter was the big name cut. There was a lot of raves about him early in camp and guys here thought he'd make theteam and Waller would get the practice squad. Quote
Tornado700 Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Normally, I dread cut day because I hate to see players cut. This year, I actually look forward to it so they key the coaching on 53. Quote
RavenMad Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Carter was the big name cut. There was a lot of raves about him early in camp and guys here thought he'd make theteam and Waller would get the practice squad. Yeah and then I saw him in a couple of games and he couldn't catch a kick off let alone a Pass! Quote
tsylvester Posted September 6, 2015 Author Posted September 6, 2015 Final cuts in, though I highly doubt the final moves have been made.... Sorry to see Dino Nuggets, Deangelo Tyson, McGee and Toussaint go. I am almost certain they bring one or more of them back at some point. http://touch.baltimoresun.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-84366754/ The Ravens released the following players Saturday:- CB Asa Jackson- OL Jah Reid- WR Jeremy Butler- OG Robert Myers- CB Cassius Vaughn- OLB Brennen Beyer- OG Kaleb Johnson- RB Terrence Magee- RB Fitzgerald Toussaint- FB Kiero Small- TE Konrad Reuland- QB Bryn Renner- S Nick Perry- DE DeAngelo Tyson (waived-injured)- DT Micajah Reynolds (waived-injured)The team also placed undrafted rookie outside linebacker Zach Thompson on injured reserve.The moves were on top of the five cuts the Ravens made yesterday, along with trading reserve center Nick Easton for an undisclosed draft pick to the San Francisco 49ers Saturday afternoon.

cravnravn Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 How smart is Oz, Easton was a walk on, and we trade him and get a pick next season. Quote
tsylvester Posted September 6, 2015 Author Posted September 6, 2015 Charles James declined to sign with the Texans on their practice squad, instead choses the Ravens practice squad. He is a 5'-9" db, can return kicks & punts, at best he is a dime back, but who knows.... Quote
thundercleetz Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 The big surprise for me is seeing Robert Myers, a fifth round pick this year, cut. Reminds me of when we cut Derek Anderson as a sixth round pick. Quote
tsylvester Posted September 7, 2015 Author Posted September 7, 2015 The big surprise for me is seeing Robert Myers, a fifth round pick this year, cut. Reminds me of when we cut Derek Anderson as a sixth round pick. He wasn't improving, wasn't learning as it were. Quote
thundercleetz Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 He wasn't improving, wasn't learning as it were.I feel like every scout and analyst said he was extremely raw and was going to take time. We had to know that. If so, bad pick on our part. Quote
thundercleetz Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 I didn't realize the Steelers cut fourth round pick Doran Grant, CB out of OSU. For a team with as many holes in the secondary as the Steelers, that is saying something. Additionally Grant was not claimed by any other teams and is on the Steelers practice squad. Quote

If so, bad pick on our part. They did know, they had hoped to get him the practice squad, another team decided he was better than he looked.... Quote
