Re: Telling comment by Ozzie Newsome
Ravens love the nice guys in the draft. We're lucky Lamar, Marlon, & JK have very friendly/polite dispositions or we probably pass on them as well, fortunately for us they're dogs that know how to turn it off during interviews/pre-draft.
High character is great but it doesn't win football games. Feels like EDC is a lot more willing to forego the politeness check than Ozzie was. Not sure we trade for a guy like Marcus Peters with Ozzie at GM.
Still... Perriman, Boykin, Duvernay all guys with very quiet and polite dispositions.. it's so strange that we never draft the chirpy/big ego WR's early (who tend to be the better players)
Hollywood is overall a nice guy but he's a dog at the end of the day. He has an ego, he wants the ball, he gets pissed when he's not involved. Strangely enough he's probably the best WR they have ever drafted. I think he's already better than Torrey but just plays in a lower volume passing offense

What BHC said. It's the position. The thread is more symptom than cause. (Except for Captain Silver and some others here.)
People were anti-Boykin already, at the end of last season. Had concluded he sucks, based on his whopping 22-target sample.
(Boykin had tailed off badly after week 11 last year.)
But the Boykin hate took a significant tick up after weeks 4 & 5 this year. Week 4 was the Washington game when Lamar threw the INT on the left sideline, intended for Boykin. Week 5 was the Cincy game with the "miscommunication" down the right sideline.

All true, Lamar, Marlon, Stanley are all "nice guys" but they turn into killers when they are on the football field. Flacco was the same in his early years. I remember during the Perriman era, some of us here on RSR used to mock him his "Prayed up!" type posts on Twitter after watching him drop pass after pass. LMAO.
