Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
I like faulk as a mid round potential left tackle

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Sign McKinnie to a 2 year, incentive laden deal with a good bonus. I doubt many teams will take a flier on him. Then you have plenty of draft options. If they got Eiffert/Ertz (both similar splitting hairs) or Elam at S or Robbins at C or a decent MLB in the first as BPA would be a good move. Or even moving picks around to end up with 2 or 3 second rounders or 2 second rounders and 2 3rd rounders would be nice as well. The Ravens have lots of good options because of those 4 comp picks to move around the draft board with thier slotted picks to target certain players. I just want them to use this draft wisely to help the future and the immediate future at the same time. I dont see them taking 11 players, bad odds that many rookies make the team. Still last years prospects have to contribute Asa Jackson, Thompson, Tyson, Gradkowski and Steeter.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Right now I think this guys will be potential BPA's at pick 32:
Tyler Eiffert, TE, Notre Dame 6'6" 250lbs
Manti T'eo, LB, Notre Dame 6'2" 245lbs
Matt Elam, FS, Florida 5'10" 205lbs
Datone Jones, DE, UCLA 6'4" 285lbs
Margus Hunt, DE, SMU 6'8" 277lbs
Kevin Minter, LB, LSU 6'2" 245lbs
Alex Okafor, DE, Texas 6'4" 265lbs
DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Clemson 6'1" 205lbs
Barrett Jones, OL, Alabama 6'5" 310lbs
We are going to be in a tough spot. I'm actually beginning to think that Elam may not be there either.
Patriots, San Fran, St. Louis, Bengals, Texans and Steelers could all target Vaccaro and/or Elam.Disclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
You cannot go into the next season with a legitimate chance that Michael Oher can be at LT.
You need to resign Bryant McKinnie AND draft your future LT."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector. I am praying that your journey will be guided by the light", Leon Shore

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
I mainly agree, but..
To me the step back the OL took this year, was not so much the difference between how McKinnie and Oher played at LT, as much as it was the hole that opened up at LG when Grubbs left, diminished 3 spots at the same time, mostly LG.
K.O. after playing RT all year, became an upgrade over what Grubbs did last year. K.O. had the size and power to handle Wilfork and Justin Smith. IMO it is the inside pressure that is lethal and leads to the edge rushers constantly getting pressure. When the QB can step up into a clean pocket, he is a very tough target for the edge rushers to find, and our tackle tandem can look lights out vs the elite edge guys in the game.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Wouldn't make sense at all.
Not unless the Ravens only view Gino as a depth player, and honestly need a starter at C, and I very much doubt that. I know that you take the BPA and all, but we are literally set at G and C for the next few years. I guess the Ravens may view him as a potential OT, he did play LT pretty well for Alabama in 2011, but he really isn't athletic enough IMO to play OT in the NFL.
