    The only thing I'll add her is that he only has a handful of game sof starting experience. In that context, I thought he was actually realyl solid. He definitely has things to work on and he had a rough game against Buffalo, but I'm not going to use his worst game of the year to make a conclusion on him.

    If you look at their sparq, you'll see that every Ravens OL, even the good ones - Stanley and Brown - have below average sparq. Stanley is the top one, close to average. Might want to address that. Brown has very low sparq, yet is good, which tells me that size outliers - giants - can be good without high sparq, but average size, low sparq guys are not in the same position.
    Lol, Brown and Stanley are better than "above average". Both are top 5 at their respective positions and the duo is top 3 in the NFL. Armstead/Ramcyck are better and Wills/Conklin are making a case. I think they're better than Schwartz/Fisher

    I'm not a big sparq guy, nor is that where I put my evaluation. I'm focused on the film. You can say Brown is good because he's a giant, but that ignores what he does so well and that's expert technical usage of his length and stride pacing in the pass game. HE's an absolute technician at it.

    So in other words, get ready for another historic regular season running game, only to watch them get stifled in the playoffs again because they can't pass the ball.

    How will the run game help then come back from a double digit deficit 😂

    Re: Run Game Changes from Press Conference

    So, Does everyone think that if we go offensive line in the draft, it will be at center only and not guard? Are there any guards on peoples radar’s that is worth taking a look at? I noticed a lot of the deaths this year is an offensive tackle and center.

    Watch that reach block on the 2iT

    That is not an easy block in outside zone. He gets there and he just seals.
    Holy shit! The first two plays! Both of them zone runs, and he just teleports to the seal position, with perfect footwork. My man.



    Getting him in the second is pure fantasy. This motherfucker is NOT repeat not falling out of the first round. Check out where these Centers went in recent drafts:

    Player Year Round Pick
    Cesar Ruiz 2020 1 24
    Garrett Bradbury 2019 1 18
    Frank Ragnow 2018 1 20
    Billy Price 2018 1 21
    Ryan Kelly 2016 1 18
    Cameron Erving 2015 1 19

    I want him. He would tie this whole OL together. Like those Cowboys lines with a young Travis Frederick (another 1st-rd Center). DeMarco Murray going for 1800 yards; Zeke Elliott getting 1600. A guy who makes the players around him better.

    I named categories. Average, Below Average, Above Average.

    And those are neutral, unbiased category names. Above Average is the name of the top category.

    A lot of the Ravens offensive linemen fall into the Below Average category. A lot of starters in 2020 fall under that category. That's a problem that the Ravens are aiming to fix.

    Regarding Giant - sure, yeah. Giant + technical usage of giant size = works. Giant + Usage - Sparq = Works. I think what I was saying was that sparq was necessary unless size outlier - giant. Add technical - coaching - on top of sparq. Sparq measures ceiling unless giant. Generally, more or less.

    The Ravens have been getting to the playoffs for the last 3 years, and the Ravens need to win all the games in the playoffs to win the Super Bowl. The problem this year was the offensive line, and the Ravens are working to fix the offensive line. Just don't lose games in the playoffs.

    Woods is a god target, and I agree that we should be Loki g at the second tier. Marvin Jones as you mention, Corey Davis...

    The Ravens do need to improve their OL. They needed to do that after the 2019 season as well, but didn’t do it. However, there aren’t enough playmakers on the offense, and the passing game is lacking. They have a much tougher schedule next year. Right now, I agree with posters who think they will go 9-7 next year. At most they will add two OL, so they should be able to fix the OL and address other needs.
