You Grossly overestimate how much I pay attention to you. You obviously pay far more attention to me than I do you. It's almost like you have an obsession with me. In all my experiences when somebody knows somebody that well. It's cuz of 2 reasons. You have the hots for me. In which case is my fault. I shouldn't of ever posted shirtless pics. Reason No.2 u r jealous. Like when the fat chic knows everything about the slender pretty girls she despises and gossips about. And she has so much built up she finally wants to say to the pretty girls when she finds an opportunity to tell her off. And yet the skinny chics barely knows anything about the fat girls. There's 2 avenues for your first post about me. You do a lot of gossiping about me. You make it a point to watch read and remember everything I ever posted. Which I'm honored. It isn't the first time some little beta blames the roided up dudes for barely any girls recognizing him. If you don't have haters and people watching your every move lurking for something negative. Then it means your not doing things right. And your not good enough to have haters. But thank you for remembering so much about me. I'm sorry you are not as important to me. Cuz I barely know anything about you to roast you.

Ps you are to kickboxing what a fat chic is to daisy dukes and I only read about a quarter of your post. Keep entertaining your board mates. And the fat chics. And I do love attention. I wouldn't know who I was without it. It's the primary reason I got into lifting. So keep feeding me attention!! I crave it!! And I'm not ashamed to say it

not gonna lie - you have a really sad outlook on life sledge...
 
oooh kay ... back to our regularly scheduled program.

WR ... let's first look at who's on the roster ...

Maclin - I really think we have to declare this experiment to be failed and cut our losses. 2.5M in dead money is worth the 5M in cap savings. That money can go toward getting an actual WR in FA.

Moore - Do I really have to mention him second? He should be the 4th player listed ... but given I've said we need to cut loose with the only guy (marginally) above him - he is honestly our best WR until we make a move. Sad, sad, sad.

Perriman - I see him listed in "players who need to step up in 2018". Really? Please ... We're talking a guy who was a healthy scratch in games where we had little or no WR options. The team has given up on him. Shouldn't we?

White - Am I really naming a guy 4th who wasn't even on the roster? Hoping for him to be something feels like us hoping for Mellette or Brown to amount to something. It would be nice, but are we really counting on it?

Honestly, how are we going to field a WR corps? I've been fantasizing about getting Robinson, but really, he'll take all available dollars and we won't be able to field a complete roster. There aren't enough players in the draft to help us and trying to count on rookie WRs to be effective is fool hearty.

Can someone honestly tell me what the fuck we're supposed to do here?

It’s definitely not going to be easy. Definitely have to restructure contracts and backload deals to create space. Allen Ronsinson or Lee. Maybe another wr like Paul Richardson and then draft a wr and TE. It definitely will be interesting this offseason.
 
Haloti Ngata wants to return for a 13th season next year, he wants to go out on his own and not by a injury. Would anyone be opposed to a 1-2 year deal to bring him back home for a reunion?

I’d be interested only problem would be that would stunt growth of some of our younger players there already isn’t enough reps to go around with bwill and Pierce in there
 
We should try and get Sammy Watkins on a cheap one year “prove it” deal. He’d be a great fit for Flacco’s arm.

Would probably turn out another wasted signing.
We need to up our standard.

But he has so much potential, and imagine him next to Calvin Ridley if we decide to go all out on offense this offseason. That would be insane for Flacco

He's long overdue fulfilling his potential.
If there is one thing about this draft I am 100% certain of, it's Ridley will go top 10.
 
I hope Ozzie watches tape this time. Decker, Marshall and Maclin all turned out to be busts. They were cut for a reason.
In FA target Posluszny, Barwin, Matt Slauson, Gabriel and Lee. Cut McClellan, Za'darius, Webb and Maclin.
 
I think it might be a small blessing in disguise that Brent Urban got injured this year. I think he is a very underrated part of our defensive line and would love to surely see him sign a 3-4 year 8 mil dollar contract. I don't think anyone else will be interested in him and it seems he was going to go off this season. Chris Wormley and Bronson really fucking suck, no way to hide it. Saw nothing promising. The coachs didn't even want them on the active roster. Honestly are d end position was really shit this year and a major reason we allowed so many rushing yards. Now another thing I'm too lazy to find actual stats on, but this guy has to be one of the best kick blockers I have ever seen. I'd guess he has about 3. I know 2 off the top of my head, and they literally were game-winning blocks. The kick 6 against the Browns was all on him, and week 3 last year vs Jacksonville turned an almost sure loss into a win. We blocked so much stuff the last few years, and from what I can recall we blocked 0 this year. That really sucks. Make Baltimore home you big Candian!
 
I would much rather draft an ILB then sign any of these free agents. They will all require money that we need in other places. ILB is something we can use late picks on, although if Roquan Smith is there at 16 and we signed a nice WR, please take him. We need a guy who can give Mosley rest in the man coverages and doesn't get ran over.

Wormley did his limited action did very well according to the numbers. He definitely should have been out there more, but he definitely doesn’t suck and you are going to see that next year. Overall teams didn’t run on us up the middle, they had to run outside.

The only problem with Urban is that you can't rely on him to stay healthy. It would be nice to have him back, but I hope we're looking for more pass-rushing DEs in the draft.

Chris had a 47 grade from Pff, but idk how accurate they are for defensive end I think they are best at grading corner backs lol. Anyway, I think the biggest problem with our run game was a shitty Ilb, (Mosley was eh this year the other spot sucked) and a complete inability to block by many guys, especially safeties. TJ got trucked 100 times minamum lol. I agree a good Ilb could fix that. We have no excuse to get run on in in the middle with pierce and b wills.

As much as I want that, I don’t know how highly we can afford to draft one. A 3-4 pass rusher is very hard to find later on. Urban does struggle to stay healthy but if we had him in a decent rotation and he could focus on special teams, I’d be very happy

I wouldn't want to draft one that highly if it means passing up on a play-maker on offense or O-line help, but it's worth keeping an eye on.
