Just curious.

I want him. Steve Smith is exactly the kind of leader the Ravens desperately need. Last year was a directionless mess on the field

Smacking around your own teammates (he's done it more than once) is "great leadership"?

I think Steve Smith would come in and be our #2/3 WR on day one. Primarily our number two, but might move inside when we play 3 WR's.

Hahaha I was hoping there weren't any HIMYM aficionados on here that would call me out! I thought the last season was kinda sucky, but I digress

I wouldn't want him taking snaps from Torrey or Marlon, but them three with Pitta on the field at once sounds awesome.

My point is Torrey and Pitta could be those guys. I dont think you need a 35 y/o to be a mentor.

I'm ok with Marlon moving to a bit more of a goal line, 3rd down role, I think he would still get plenty of snaps to grow.

This season of HIMYM has been ok... but my favorite "moment" of the history of the show was learning just what Barney did for a living, and that came this year... "Please"...

at 34 he had as many catches and td's as torrey smith in 1 less game...

A million times NO!

Guy is old, temperamental, has lost his speed, etc..

Throw in Torrey and there isn't much space for anything more.

You've got a point there. What I'd like is to complement Torrey and Marlon with a vet WR and a high draft choice... Bc

Who would have thought that giving incomprehensible pre-game speeches would have worked but it did. It's hard to know what it takes to lead but there are clearly certain players that are able to do it and Steve Smith is one of them.
