I wanted moncrief here. Shame. Guess it’s all about the draft for the WRs
Which is completely fine with me. Honestly I didn’t want them to sign a vet WR unless it came via trade for a young stud receiver in his prime(which they won’t) Guys like Crabtree, Maclin, and Wallace have made the Ravens neglect the position early. I know it’s a broken record, but it’s finally time to draft that home grown stud to develop with our young franchise qb. Torrey Smith did wonders for Joe Flacco until SF overpaid for him. AJ Brown would be ideal.

I'm all in on Parris Campbell, I strongly believe he has to be our guy

I knew who you were talking about, but that raises the bigger question of what do we do with the RB position. We've got Dixon and Edwards under contract for super cheap relatively speaking, and Ingram who is obviously now our starter, so Buck in or out of the equation, so we also draft a RB? I personally love where our team is at, and I'm not nearly as scared of the Browns as ever NFLN analyst.
Depending on how the draft board plays out, there could be a quality back in the 3rd-4th that’s too good to pass up. If that’s the case, I’m not sure who would be the odd-man out. Edwards was productive, but is similar to Ingram. Dixon shows flashes of being a stud, but puts the ball on the turf too frequently. If I had to guess, Dixon would be odd-man out.

I would be very happy with Campbell. The only receivers I’m very worried about are Hakeem Butler, and shockingly D.K. Metcalf. They have Perriman-like measurables in ways and also Perriman-like hands. Hollywood Brown, AJ Brown, or Campbell would all be great picks... N’keal Harry is solid as well, but he reminds me too much of Jaelen Strong.

First thought of the Harry comparison to Strong is lazy (cuz of school), but I actually share similar concerns. I also think all of the concerns with DK and lack of flexibility are extremely valid. I just think Campbell is going to be an absolute stud.

I don't have Campbell as a round1 target. I wish he could win more as a receiver rather than a YAC specialist. Not saying I don't like him but I'm weary of those OSU speedster after seeing Curtis Samuel.
 
To fuck a steeler you need more than whiskey man! You need to be seriously drugged up!

Idk bout you guys but I just need one pill for this one. I promise I won't close my eyes

Fair enough - I’ve got a 2nd round grade on him - he’s the kind of target that I feel would be in range for us in a trade back scenario

Honestly I kind of want us to double dip at receiver within our first 5 picks anyway

I think there’s only 2 wrs id take at 22 atm and that’s marquise brown and Deebo samuel

We def need to pick 2 WR with our first 5 picks. Then again you can't predict how the draft is going to unfold so easily. But that is my hope.

I would take Butler, possibly Harmon and Brown at 22. Brown is so small though... How is he not going to spend his career on IR?

I'm with you on Brown's size / constitution. Granted, he's not the easiest guy to catch but I feel he'd disintegrate first time someone puts a proper hit on him.

He’s already going into the draft hurt. Could be another John Ross
