I imagine that would allow a mix of Ojabo, Oweh, Houston(?), JPP (?) being on the field more.

Oweh is useless. And is Houston even on the roster anymore? Bowser is needed on the outside. Trading Queen makes zero sense. It was like trading Hollywood last season. You put a big hole that you have no one to fill.

Oweh was better once Bowser was able to man the SAM spot.

I am sure the Cardinals would love it but why would the Ravens do it?

Better? I mean he was missing in action for most games. Ojabo will take Oweh's place. Compare their college tape and Ojabo was dominant and Oweh looked just as bad in college. I still don't understand giving up second and Orlando Brown in order to draft him.

The team looked better with Bowser and Roquan playing as the defense had 10 good players on it. You need to Keep Queen and find a replacement for Peters . And hopefully someone steps up to take Campbell's snaps.

Oweh will be fine when he's playing rush LB. He played well at that spot in his rookie season and got better when Bowser returned last year. I still have high hopes for Oweh and think he's going to return to his rookie form.

Ojabo had a nice PFF grading in the Bengals game... Its what we have behind both of them that worries me. Leonard Floyd is still available.

People want to replace Queen with whom? Malik Harrison? Bynes? I don't really get the Queen hatred. He had a great season last year. And you want to put a JAG in his place?

PFF is useless but Ojabo is the real deal.

IIRC, waived-injured at final cuts last year, passed through waivers, reverted to IR.

4 years of a cheaper 2nd/3rd rounder vs overpaying for a situational linebacker. Its basic roster building why people want Queen moved, he's due for an expensive 5th year option that we'd be foolish to pick up right now.

We drafted a bunch of linebackers in the second round and most of them turned out to be bums. Should I list them?

Correa, Arthur Brown, Sergio Kindle, Courtney Upshaw, Dan Cody.

You think you can get a player half as good as Queen in the second round? LOL.
