In good news, the RB rumors are heating up today and apparently multiple teams are interested in Najee Harris, Travis Etienne, and/or Javonte Williams in round 1. Having 1 or 2 of those guys go before us (which seems like a real possibility) would really help in hopefully pushing something else down the board.

I'm not sure the year 5 option makes that big of a difference for a non-QB. Sounds great in theory, but if the player is that good, there's a good chance you're working on an extension well before that anyways. It's a nice to have, but for a team that will likely have a QB occupying a huge part of the cap, you're probably going to want the extension over the option, because you can adjust the cap hit that way.

for sure - the control is useful - but with the new CBA it got more expensive too - if your guy plays well enough, he becomes as expensive as a transition tag now - so the 5th year option is really just the ability to franchise tag without causing an escalator but you have to designate it a year before they play under it...

the dream for me is if 5 QBs, 4 LBs, 3 RBs, a DL and Greg Rousseau all go ahead of us

that would leave us with potentially the 13th best non-QB on the board (at least on my board lol)
 
Being from the west coast, I usually view all the football games via stream links. Probably do the same for draft day.

tag / DM me draft day and I’ll give you a link.

just won’t know if the stream will be the NFL network or ESPNs

hey man, if I can’t find a stream, I usually can, I might hit you up for this too!

Barmore was just too good to pass up at 31. Also, the damn Bills grabbed Nico Collins in the third round literally one pick before me.

We've double dipped at positions in rounds 1 and 3 the last 3 drafts.
2018 TE (Hurst and Andrews), 2019 WR (Brown and Boykin), 2020 ILB (Queen Harrison).
I like it.

Random thought, the Ravens have drafted guys that I was pounding the table for them to get in the first round the past few years (Lamar,Hollywood,Queen), seems like we are beyond due for a first round that pisses us off lol

WHT SHOULD I DO BUCKY BROOKS???

I did one where Kyle pitts fell to 27.

I had to pause for a second and thought:

“do I really want to waste 3 minutes of my life drafting him and continuing this unrealistic mock? Yes..yes I do.”

With the 27th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Baltimore Ravens selects... Kyle Pitts!

I literally make the pick, just to appease myself, then pick at 31, for fun, then restart lmao.

Then I never pick ardarius Washington at the end of the third, because I firmly believe he’s not gonna be there.
