Hurst was a little different of a scenario. As on older rookie, he wanted out so he could be TE1 somewhere and get that contract before time ran out. Just happened to fall behind Andrews with the injury and Andrews never relented.

Wasn't that what was being surmised last year near the end of the season, that the Ravens were done with both the Wink and Roman but that for "continuity" they were probably going to stick with Roman so as not to shake things up too much and since he was not under contract after this year he would be out anyway without "having to do anything?" Someone mentioned this. I don't know if it was one of the posters here or a "report" from somewhere.

Why not have world-beaters everywhere? The more weapons the better!

None of the cats on the Ravens roster are at those guys' level in my book. And, I'm not sold on Bateman or Duvernay being the beast that I need them to be. Never have been.

Rashee rice is the wr I want in the draft. YAC stud, just real sharp and twitchy and explosive in his movements, vertically explosive too, size, length, attacks the ball well. He’s the exact guy who can take a short easy completion and make more out of it just to take some of the load off the qb. I like dontayvion wicks too
i feel like we watched different guys with how you describe rashee rice - i dont see explosion or twitch at all - feel like he feasted on some awful DBs
awesome in contested situations
do love the YAC stuff - super physical with the ball in his hands
but...
doesnt separate with any sort of frequency
really sticky hands but too many drops
so many of his plays where he's not contested were him walking into wide open windows - rarely tested with physical press or physical play by DBs anywhere outside of at the catch
non-existent route-tree and not much craftsmanship in his route running at all
he's got a great trait to hang his hat on and has that WR alpha mentality on the outside at the catch point but i dont see someone i can feel comfortable with taking as high as it's being suggested he should go right now
Wicks is real nice though - has a chance to massively improve his draft stock if he has a good senior bowl and tests well - jim nagy was saying he had some 2nd round grades before going back to school - the extra year in college has hurt him i think but i assume he'll steadily rise up boards as more people watch him beyond just the box score
idk man
if you want an offence that's not all about TEs this is probably not the guy you want lol

Two things have to happen for Lamar to be signed to a long-term deal. One, get rid of GRo, and two, trade for a legit #1 WR. Otherwise, please let him go to a team that pays him and helps him excel. You will do the league a favor by preserving Lamar's greatness for the world to see.

He is extremely under appreciated becuase his QBs have been garbage before Brady but he still buts up 9 straight 1k seasons

Rice was my 2 target after Odunze. Now that Odunze went back to school.. I’m all in the Rice train!

Go Bucs!

Oh yeah... forgot Minnesota would have the 23rd pick due to their 13-3 record. Either way it smells like a trade down scenario to get more picks depending on how the offseason plays out.

Agree. And that’s exactly what it feels like we’re becoming

I can name one notable thing that receiver did..... 2007, MNF against the Patriots. Hail Mary falls short of ruining the Patriots perfect season.
