Ryan Clark in Purple?
I'm not thrilled with this idea if it's true.
Aaron Wilson @RavensInsider 7m
Ravens have interest in Ryan Clark, according to a source. Fluid situation at safety. Redskins, Jets also involved with Clark

Re: Ryan Clark in Purple?
Although 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: Ryan Clark in Purple?
There has to be a clip of him saying he would never be a Raven. I swear I saw that on NFL network one time. I hope it happens.
Edit: and by happens I meant find the video. I can only see Clark here to facilitate a 1st rd pick.Last edited by Stealthbirds80; 03-17-2014 at 03:38 PM.

Re: Ryan Clark in Purple?
if he can cover well, I'd be for it. Ideally, our FS starter is going to be a stopgap until our drafted FS is ready to start (either this year or next).
I would be against it because I don't think he's a good cover FS. Maybe I'm wrong though.

“When I think of a Baltimore Raven - we go in there, we take your lunch box, we take your sandwich, we take your juice box, we take your applesauce, and we take your spork and we break it. And we leave you with an empty lunch. That’s the Baltimore Raven way.” - Steve Smith Sr.
Call me a Special Teams coach again. I dare you! I double dare you, MFer!

Re: Ryan Clark in Purple?
I actually remember reading an article back in 2009ish where he said if he were to play anywhere else, he'd like to be a Raven due to the physical similarities between us and the Steelers
Edit...
Clark acknowledged that respect. Take what he's about to say the right way, Pittsburgh.
"Hatred is a strong word,'' Clark said. "I don't particularly hate them. In fact, the ultimate respect I can give them is if I couldn't play for Pittsburgh, I'd want to play for Baltimore.''

He can't play in altitude due to sickle cell trait, so there better not be a PO game in Denver next year.

Re: Ryan Clark in Purple?
Please no.
At this point I'd pencil in Omar and wait for either someone with more talent than what's on the market to get cut, or see how the draft shakes out and let that player compete. I'm assuming Ozzie has his sights set on someone he expects to be cut. Similar to how we didn't bring in a single WR until Steve Smith was released.

Re: Ryan Clark in Purple?
hes not a coverage guy, at least not at this stage in his career. Thats not taking it literal thats taking it for what was meant by it. We dont want two SS back there again. We want a quick rangey S that can cover well... or in other words a more athletic safety.
