According to PFF, Jefferson has allowed seven receptions on 11 targets his way for 169 yards and a touchdown. He’s also missed five tackles through four games, something that absolutely cannot happen for a strong safety.

Jefferson is being asked to do a lot in this defense but is having a terrible season. If he can step up and play like we’ve seen him play, quite a few of the issues we’ve seen this defense have will suddenly disappear.

Jets gave Mosley $85M over 5 years, and he got hurt in game one and there is no timetable for his return. Now imagine if we had done that and gave him that money and he got hurt. It would have been the same old story of players getting big contracts then getting hurt. This board would be flipping out.

I know, right? After our miserable defensive performance, there were lots of people bemoaning the fact that we let Mosley walk.

All of them seem to have forgotten the minor detail that he's missing a major chunk of this season.

Oh man, that is starting to rival the 2010 draft. Humph keeps this from being a complete disaster. Wormley may be a starter, but I'm not impressed. Bowser has been put on serious notice by Harbaugh's comments and Williams being released.

Other than Yetur Gross Matos are there any other dominant front 7 players we can get outtakes this draft class??? Has my top guy I want rn but looking for more edge rushers or off ball linebackers that would fit our system

Ravens worked out Josh Bynes, Mason Foster, Jeremiah Ledbetter, Dekoda Watson, Domata Peko and Vincent Rey
Wouldn't mind Rey or Bynes but I wanna see Ferguson get more reps.

With Judon, McPhee, Peirce, and Ferguson I feel we should see decent pass rush production from those guys.

Even though I think our run defense and busted coverages are bigger issues atm. Or at least the past 2 games have been

yep and who is to say that the same wouldn't happen to Ramsey, for those who want to trade two first round picks for him and then pay him what he is going to want, upwards of 20m.

Upwards of 20 seems high when the highest paid corner is at 16m (he will probably get 18 or 19), but he doesn't have an injury history whereas Mosley was always hurt.

We said the same thing about our pass rush production when we had Williams. we're not going to get better by losing a player.
