There's no doubt in my mind geno smith will be a top 5 pick.
People have short memories. I keep hearing how there's no sure thing QB prospects. When is there?? Last year was an absolute anomaly, not the norm.
In 2011 Jake locker and Blaine Gabbert were top ten picks. Christian Ponder 12th overall??? If Glennon were in that draft he would have gone before ponder just on upside alone, and he's what, the third, fourth best QB prospect this year?
There is going to be two QBs taken in the top ten is my guess, probably 4 in the first round. I set the QB O/U at 3.

3. The Ravens and Joe Flacco are making progress. The club negotiator, Pat Moriarty, and agent Joe Linta spent four hours together Friday night, then were spotted at the Capital Grille having dinner. This isn't degenerating into what happened last summer -- yet, and I don't think it will -- when Linta and Flacco walked away with a deal agonizingly close. The Ravens know they can find a way to do a cap-friendly deal in years one and two, Flacco knows he doesn't want to leave Baltimore, and the extended conversation is a good sign that the two sides can reach a five- or six-year deal to keep the unsigned Flacco in Baltimore through the middle of his prime years before free agency opens in two weeks.

What do people think of Matt Furstenburg as a potential late H-Back type?
I think that is what is going to happen. I like his hands, smarts and good speed. I bet with the new NFL's focus on passing he will be a 5th rounder. I think he will have a decent NFL career. He has good seam speed and would be good vs zone coverage and could line him up at FB also and used for out of the backfield plays. I like him as a prospect mid rounds of course (5th)
Mayock said that Cullen Jenkins' agent told him that Jenkins will be be cut.
