Re: Ravens Free Agent Possible Add / Drops
There's no way Suggs gets cut. Ozzie likes his hybrid OLB's. He's had a fetish for them ever since drafting Bouleware. He's been looking for Bouleware's clone ever since, and the closest he's gotten is Suggs.
I'd be shocked if Dumervil ends up a Raven. Pleasantly shocked. I think Pees could find a way to get him, Upshaw, and Suggs plenty of snaps each. I'm sure he'd love to have that problem.
Max Starks would be a good signing. He's a dependable pass-blocking LT, and he's not bad at run blocking. He and that Pittsburgh O-line take a lot of heat for bad decisions made by Roethlisberger. Plus, we don't have to worry about him facing Suggs on game day. Suggs has had some good games against Stark. Stark's had some decent games against Suggs, too.

Re: Ravens to work out Tavon Austin in a few weeks
He has been ok the past two years. In fairness to Starks the rest of his O line outside of Pouncy was junk and that does not help matters any.
He could be a good one year stop gap if they draft a LT in the 2nd or 3rd rounds. Would far prefer Starks at LT and Oher at RT instead of Oher at LT and having to put KO at RT“A linebacker's job is to knock out running backs, to knock out receivers, to chase the football,”

Re: Ravens to work out Tavon Austin in a few weeks
I agree with that. Starks is preferable over McKinney too. He's younger without the drama. Plus he'd be a bargain next to a questionable Long.

Re: Ravens to work out Tavon Austin in a few weeks
Don't hate hte idea, but in terms of conditioning he's a lot like Mckinnie, he's a big boy and gets gassed throughout the game. He lowered his sacks allowed, but his QB hurries increased dramatically. Could playing beside an all pro interior line help? Probably which would be interesting. I dont know though. I'd take him over McKinnie. Jake Long isn't happening unless they do something nuts

Re: Ravens to work out Tavon Austin in a few weeks
I'd still rather have McKinnie, but make no mistake about it, Max Starks is a better option than going back to Oher at LT.

Don't know if you've all listened to this or not, but Greg Cossell has done a SC podcast about free agency so far, and there's a bit about the Ravens that is interesting:
