Damn straight. I might even start a “trade Lamar and Flacco, woodrum is the future” thread.

At that size he might actually be a gamewrecker

man i really really hope so

edit: interestingly enough his contract expires in the same offseason that brandon williams becomes cuttable...

hopefully henry plays so well that we have to pay him a significant amount of money

I don't think William's contract has anything to do with Henry and unless we're super strapped for cash. They have two very different roles. It's not like we're going to ever cut Williams and put Henry at NT.

We aren’t going to pay top dollar for 2 dlineman at the same time. There is definitely a correlation.

i was talking about the money rather than henry and williams playing the same position
 
any chance you could quote the relevant text on here - the baltimoresun has apparently fallen foul of new cookie rules in Europe
"Current Ravens defensive coordinator Don Martindale lobbied Pees to match Humphrey up with Brown in that game, but Pees declined. It won’t be such a difficult decision in 2018."

“With Jimmy hurt, starting is not my main goal right now,” Humphrey said. “I’ve never been on a team where the No. 3 got as much playing time as I did last year and I am thankful for that. I think if I am a veteran player and the Ravens draft a guy that player has to prove that he deserves to start. I respect those veterans in front of me. It’s their job to lose.”

"At 6-foot and 195 pounds Humphrey has the size and certainly the speed to match up with top receivers. He has no fear and learned defense from one of college football’s top coaches in Alabama’s Nick Saban. In his second year, Humphrey appears to be more comfortable and it is clearly noticeable on the field."

And then there were some more Humphrey quotes about his second year and the defense under Wink.

Wow that's cool knowledge to read. I'm wondering though, where does Preston get that info?
 
where'd you read it? i'd be interested
Probably from that same baltimoresun article. Here’s the quote from Brandon Williams about Humphrey-

“After watching him through the off season workouts and getting through the first couple of days of OTAs, that dude is going to be a player,” Williams said. “I always see his name at the top of the defense as far as points in practice.”

Oh yeah, I saw that as well
 
Here's a question, have you guys ever seen our defensive players throw a former DC under the bus the way they are with Pees? I don't think I've ever heard a player saying they were shackled by a DC before. At least not from the Ravens.

I’m still pissed we weren’t able to grab DJ Moore. Can’t help but think that he will be a beast of a playmaker and another home grown that got away.

I don't think we gave half a fuck abou drafting a wr. Strongly evidenced by our choices in FA and taking 2 TEs
