Re: 2008 Ravens
I can't believe I'm almost in agreement with you, two days in a row.
The tweak though would be that this offseason we would be facing a rebuild, but it should be very limited in the number of positions. I would think that, assuming Boller plays adequately, they would go BPA, but limited to BPA among several positions. Certainly the the CB and DE positions, maybe reach into WRs and lower round QBs. If Boller stinks, a 1st round QB (unless there were another Drew Brees situation and the FO -- this time -- chose the better FA).
I don't think so. Troy Smith was a throwaway pick last season. A longshot gamble that they could cash in on a #5 round. Even if he makes the team next season, I don't think the FO views him as a serious candidate to take over at the helm.
I would not be surprised to see the Ravens choose two QBs next season, one via the draft (high to low round depending on Boller's performance), and a vet FA or a walk-on undrafted FA to compete with Smith.In a 2003 BBC poll that asked Brits to name the "Greatest American Ever", Mr. T came in fourth, behind ML King (3rd), Abe Lincoln (2nd) and Homer Simpson (1st).

Re: 2008 Ravens
It all depends on Kyle.
If Kyle doesn't show he is the guy, then we will have a top 5-10 pick, and we would have a shot at Brohm, Ryan or Woodson...and you'd almost have to take one of them.
If he shows he is the guy, we should have a mid first round pick, and BPA...There isn't a position on our team besides maybe safety and RB that I don't think could use some first round help.

Re: 2008 Ravens
With Rolle having a sickness that must be god awful (Not trying to make fun of it) and C-Mac soon to be past his prime I think it logical to go after a CB. The guys behind these two are either old (Ivy) or terrible (Pittman and Martin)

Re: 2008 Ravens
I guess my thinking is that at 14, Woodson, Brohm, and Ryan should be gone simply based on the needs of teams likely to be worse than 14...Bears, Dolphins, Vikings, Falcons....hell, maybe even the Panthers in there if they get scared about Delhomme.
I'm not sure there is anyone else worth taking around that slot in the draft at the moment...maybe bowl season and the combine might change my mind.
My point about QBs is that they're ALWAYS going to be overvalued or a reach because a QB can make a bad or mediocre team decent to great.
Lots of time, we'll see what happens. For all I know, Boller could suddenly play like Tom Brady and the Ravens win the Super Bowl from the wildcard slot out of nowhere.
