Ravens Ring of Honor
Yes, I see that @JAAM is jamming Flacco down our throats! lolNo, but I’m also not the original one who came up with said idea lol

I guess in a hypothetical world that's fine. I'm just not doing it because I'm just assuming he'd be good instead of actually seeing him play well there.I also would put Stanley at RT because he’s head and shoulders a superior player, but he’s never taken a snap at RT at any level that we can see on film
Another thing I neglected in reading the hypothetical is game situation. Having a great run blocker means nothing, because you're down 4 with 2 minutes to go.Yeah we didn't think nothing of Skura being our Center because mostly he had Yanda next to him and our run game was amazing so it didn't really matter. Yanda retired and that really revealed we needed an upgrade under Center, but the whole interior honestly. Hopefully Bozeman is ready for that task.
Can't remember if he posted here but remember him from the old boards. Didn't realize so many people had pods.

Veterans typically hate training camp. Nobody is really adding players to their rosters at this stature, so what's the difference in the market if he signs today vs 6 weeks from now?Justin Houston is only 32. That means he's nearing the ends of his career sure, but he's not 36. I can understand not wanting to do a lot of the off-season stuff, but if you're joining a new team, wouldn't you want to be there for training camp? I can't imagine he's going to get a big or long term deal and I can't see how not going to training camp will help him in a pursuit of another contract.

If anything, his market gets a little bit better as training camp/preseason injuries occur, and as teams widdle down their rosters and remind themselves of their weakest position groups.
I'm not saying its impossible guys like him sign this week, but if I'm them, I'm just waiting longer. I'd be targeting probably mid-to-late August. Will give them a good couple weeks to prepare for the season and learn the playbook, without having to go through the rigor of multi-day practices and camp issues.
I thought we would give Ingram a chance :

Steelers sign Ingram.
Yea, big miss by the Ravens. Not so much because of Ingram's skills(good but we’ll past his prime)but more so just how lacking we are in the pass rush department. Going to be a long frustrating season for the fans and CBs. Think 2016 when we were in the bottom 5 in sacks per game.

exactly - if someone gives him a major deal in march he's not turning it down to just to miss training camp
but if someone's gonna offer him the same deal in august as they would in april then why not wait?
