Not as long as there's still guys from Alabama A&M left on the board!

With Rolando's future in doubt I would be pretty pleased to get a player like Reddick in the 7th

Well, the way he picks up blitzes, that's fine with me.

Aaron Melette WR

**Dan Featherman** · 04-27-2013, 06:51 PM

Well, there's a wide receiver, lol

**Shas** · 04-27-2013, 06:51 PM

Mellette.... YES!!

j/k

**Ravenous1** · 04-27-2013, 06:51 PM

No longer mad.

Pitta was about 200 yards shy of Boldin's numbers last year, had more TD receptions, and had I think 1 less reception. There's your "Boldin".

Clearly Jim Caldwell is better at utilizing the skills that are currently on the roster. The Ravens have had several opportunities to take a receiver. They haven't. What does that tell you?

That they don't know what the fuck they're doing? Or, perhaps, they feel their current group of receivers will be productive and contribute to a - hopefully - successful season?

Again, completely subjective.

Folks did the same thing last year regarding inside linebacker and we were all clamoring for Mychal Kendricks, Bobby Wagner, etc and the season ended up alright I'd say.
