Amon-Ra st brown and tylan wallace still haven’t got drafted? Sheesh
I'm hoping we draft one of them tomorrow.

i get it though - not very traitsy - not super athletic - in tylan's case there's some injury concerns too
both of them may well turn into long-term successful pros but i understand why they're still available
I kinda like Austin Watkins tbh
What's really clear is that, in a year with lots of uncertainty, the ravens are picking guys with athletic ability and great testing and athletic profiles
when there's less film around and less confidence in other parts of the process, i would say that through 105 picks, it's fairly clear the ravens are leaning on the analytics department a bit more than they otherwise have done in the past - probably to fill some of the gap
I mean, its sort of reverse logic though. Like people liked the depth at WR in this class... why do you need to draft a WR in the first when they could snag one on day 2.Yeah I get that Sewell was the top player at OL but I never understood why the Bengals needed to pick him in round 1 when they could also snag a Tackle and OL help on Day 2. I'm not going to like it because the Bengals are filling two holes but damn man, it's like people forgot about the depth in this class. I think we can land a good OL tonight or tomorrow and be really excited about it. I'm just hoping Humphrey or Dickerson falls into the third round just like Tyler Biazdaz did last year.
Agreed completely. This could be optimistic, but there's actually a legitimate chance our top 3 picks are day 1 quality starters. That would be an insane draft if so. Even if we picked no one else.
They have a high pick invested in a quality OT already, they made a quality stopgap signing in reiff, and yeah they need more OL help, but the net gain from an elite WR is much more than you get from an elite OT, like the difference in end result between an elite OT and a very solid OT is negligible, but the difference between jamarr chase and tee Higgins could very well be massive.I mean, its sort of reverse logic though. Like people liked the depth at WR in this class... why do you need to draft a WR in the first when they could snag one on day 2.
The key differences for me are:
1. The Bengals already had some pretty good receivers. Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins would play well on a lot of teams. Granted, two WRs isn't enough, but I'm not sure that like "#1 WR" was what was missing from this offense.
2. If you can't protect Burrow, it doesn't matter how good the WRs are. Sewell rated as one of the better LT prospects in many years. Whether he lives up to that or not is a question, but same could be said about Chase.
3. I think you'll find most of the day 2 Olineman are interior players or RT's in the NFL. I don't expect many, if any, to become franchise LTs.
Just like I said last night, I don’t see any of these guys from middle of last night and today doing anything noteworthy. These guys being drafted now flat out suck, and that’s a big difference from other draft years
Hamilcar rashed
Brevin Jordan
Daviyon Nixon
Amon ra st brown
Trey smith
Stone forsythe(big emphasis here, I’d love this guy in round 4)
James Hudson
Quincy roche
Janarius robinson
Joshua kaindoh
Israel mukuamu
ARDARIUS WASHINGTON
Rodarius Williams
Tre brown
that’s off the top, there’s a lot of good looking prospects available
Of those safeties I’ve only watched nasirildeen and I want him so far away from Baltimore that he can’t even see an online ad for crabcakes, if we draft nasirildeen I’m throwing in the towel lol. He is POOOOOOPstone forsythe definitely a good option - great pass protector - a lot of work to do in the running game
i honestly dont care that we already took a DB in Brandon Stephens - i'd take another one and another one if they're BPA - the DB class seems to be the strongest group left in the draft
Ar'Darius Washington
Jamar Johnson
Kary Vincent Jr
Israel Mukuamu
Tre Brown
are the cream but i think there's a ton of other guys i'd be very interested in:
At Safety:
James Wiggins
Joshuah Bledsoe
Hamsah Nasirildeen
(JaCoby Stevens - I think he's more of a LB/dime but some project as S)
At Corner:
Tay Gowan
Marco Wilson
DJ Daniel
Robert Rochell
Trill Williams

but man I love the remaining corners, rodarius Williams is a name you might be interested in
