So thinking about our common ground on trading up for The Joker...passing on Jacoby and Boldin alone would give us $10M to pursue Clady, and we'd get our 1st, 2nd and 4th back.
And yes...I understand the risk of dropping Boldin during Joe's "all-in"/tag year. Always tough to balance the short term and the long term..."The Ravens are not taking Jimmy Smith at 26!" -- Me, the day before the 2011 Draft
"On their way to the podium, the Ravens FO is going to collectively step over my dead body and select...Breshad Perriman." -- Me, the day before the 2015 Draft

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
That's not Ozzie's style. He never counts on a draft pick having an impact from day 1. Even for someone he targets, like Upshaw last year or Flacco before that, he's still willing to risk losing by trading down to get as much value as possible. Ozzie will trade up a couple of spots but he's not making that big trade like the Falcons did.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
This Clady talk is insane. The Broncos didn't just spend a fortune on Manning to let him get beat up by letting his best o-lineman go. They'll either come to a deal or franchise him. There is no way that Clady hits the free agent market.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Boldin isn't really a receiver. He's actually a very short tight end.
I can't see us letting go of him. He's been too reliable and has always come through for us. And perhaps most importantly, he makes numerous crucial downfield blocks that no other receivers on our roster can do nearly as well.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Because Ozzie will say that you can't count on any draft pick to have an immediate impact. We see sure thing players bomb out all the time. Ozzie is a conservative drafter. After 17 years he's not going to suddenly change the way he does things in year 18. I'm not saying you're wrong but I can's see that happening as long as Ozzie is in charge.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Any ACC diehards watch Duke's Sean Renfree play?
He's had a solid senior year.
Only threw more than 1 INT once and that was vs. Stanford (2 INTs).
6'4...225lbs with a strong arm.
66% completion.
Smart...already working on his Master degree.
Here's CBS' favorable write up:
Renfree is a traditional drop back passer and looks the part with a tall, filled out frame. He has a strong arm to easily make all the throws and does a nice job working through his progressions to find the open target. Renfree shows excellent chemistry with his receivers and is a confident thrower, never appearing shy to take chances downfield. The career statistics aren't glamorous (32-30 TD-INT ratio), but he has all the tools NFL scouts look for at the next level. And it won't hurt that his collegiate head coach is the same offensive mind that mentored Peyton and Eli Manning.
Warning: He's a quiet leader ;)

From SI via rotoworld
SI's Tony Pauline is hearing that Stanford junior TEs Zach Ertz and Levine Toilolo are "leaning towards staying in school."
This is a mild surprise for Ertz since the tight end put together an excellent season. Toilolo is more of an inline type but was inconsistent from game to game. Still, both project as second day picks and would be paired with third tight end/fullback Ryan Hewitt next season to once again form an excellent trio. Source: Sports Illustrated
