Will you be ok if the Ravens dont draft 2 WRs in the first 4 rounds?

LOL....great response. My post was said in jest, but I am wondering how he fares this year......and if he even makes the final 53. Guess we'll see. It seems like w/all the potential talent we are signing and potentially drafting just where he fits in......and if he even does. There's only so many spots.....

Who at the position is going to be putting up numbers like 5/60/2, 6/100/1, 7/120/0 in just two years from now?
Who on the roster has the reliability, athletics and past performance that even suggests as much?

Leaving a Moore, Miller or <enter your Day 1/Day 2 favorite here> on the Board is not smart at all IMO of course.

Pass rush is a bigger need right now and depth at OL...

Didn’t we draft 5 of them over the last few years lol

I won’t be happy if they don’t take at least 1 wr and 1 Te/wr in the first 3 rounds.

Hard to see where there’s even room for two WRs in the first 4 rounds. They aren’t going to carry more than 6 on the 53. Crabtree, Snead (assuming), Brown, Moore are all sure to make it. Then you still have White, Abedoyejo, and Perriman. Have to think one of those 3 make the team. So there’s your five, along with hopefully a first/second day pick and your WR roster is set for the year. TE and RT are bigger needs at this point. And probably a 2 down ILB, although I’d prefer they pursue a cheaper veteran for that role (still hoping Navarro Bowman shows up)

they atilk dont havr any cheap-ish control over any youngish wrs outside of snead and chris Moore

i think they need at least 1 wr somewhere. hopefully 2. i agree we need a TE as well.

Yeah. Give them room to breathe. If they don't develop, next year's pass rush class will probably be deeper.

I agree. Fans wanting/expecting them to draft WR's have to (should) consider just how many roster spots there are and how many WR's make the 53. Just sayin'.

Bowser. Tim Williams. Chris Wormely. Correa. Kafusi. Willie Henry. Matthew Judon.

Thats just drafted assets from the last 2 drafts. We have to let some of those develop and eat up some meaningful snaps before we start saying that Pass Rush is a bigger need, so lets triple down on that. Naw, yo. NAW.

OL, I wouldn't mind a pick there, but from teh last 2 years:

Siragusa. Eluemore. Ronnie Stanley. Alex Lewis. Thats 4 picks in the last 2 years, but a nice UDFA type find in Skura. Its not bare bones in terms of guys to develop.

Meanwhile, WR over the last 2 years:

Chris Moore. Keenan Reynold (QB/WR no longer in the league). That's it.

At TE: NOTHING in the last 2 years.
