You know, Datone Jones is a real possibility at 32 if he is there.
5 Technique in a 3-4? Check.
Rush the passer? Check.
Set the edge? Check.
6'4" 285lbs.
Kind of like a more all around McPhee.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
The more I think about it, the more I'd love to have a shot at Jones.
My top 3 favorites for who I want at the 32nd spot...being realistic as to who may be there are Elam, Jones and Minter...I've really come to like him more and more.
My favorite media/ex scout guy (Daniel Jeremiah apparently really likes Minter as well)...
Daniel Jeremiah @MoveTheSticks
I'm watching LSU defense vs Florida…This is a Kevin Minter highlight tape.RT @YahooForde: He was unbelievable that game. RT @MoveTheSticks I'm watching LSU defense vs Florida…This is a Kevin Minter highlight tape.Daniel Jeremiah @MoveTheSticks
I've see all I need to see from Kevin Minter…Instincts, burst, explosive striker, sorts through the trash, great effort. I'm in. #DraftDaniel Jeremiah @MoveTheSticks
RT @matt_miz: very good fit for Ravens, no? > When I scouted there, we focused on speed, toughness and instincts. Minter checks all 3 boxesAlthough Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
If we still had Cam, I would think he wouldn't know how to use a player like this. But now with Caldwell...my interest is peaked. He would certainly add a new wrinkle to our offense. Local boy, dream come true.
Problem is he kind of overlaps with Jacoby for returns and Rice for screens. But I guess that could be a good problem to have. Austin looks made for the Patriots.Last edited by bt12483; 02-08-2013 at 05:09 PM.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
as much as I like Jacoby, if we are able to draft Austin, then he becomes a bit expensive and superflous... maybe not quite expendable. I guess that's my way of sayingthat if the FO chooses Boldin over Jacoby in a one or the other scenario AND they draft Austin, then I would be happy withthe sum total.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Daniel Jeremiah loves Minter, says when he was scouting here they focus on 3 things with LB's 1. speed 2. toughness 3. instincts and Minter fits the bill. Talks about the Florida game being essentially a Minter highlight reel, which it was, he was tremendous in that game.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
They have Deonte Thompson and the draft to find developmental return guys who could become outside WRs. I don't think Jacoby Jones survives the off-season as a Raven.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
I'd be more than happy to have Sam Montgomery, Kevin Minter, or Datone Jones as first round picks.
