We are one of the best teams in mid to late round picks in the league

Yeah and look how far that got us
decosta runs the draft and has done for a couple of years but ozzie as he always has done has been in charge of everything in personnel terms and as such has final say over every pick/strategy/trade deal etc.

In terms of making the picks, I think that's Ozzie's call which was my point. I do believe that Decosta is heavily involved in terms of running it and the rankings but I don't think he makes the picks or how the proccess goes down in the end.
i mean to be fair on draft day there's not a huge amount for those guys to do necessarily except work out trade values etc. and adjust the board post-picks - for the mostpart they take the BPA on the board
this most recent draft was probably the one that had the most work for any of them to do with all the trades lol

That was John’s doing. Put a target on him already

Took me a second. It's just that the name "Will Montgomery" straight up sounds like an NFL player.

Haha, I noticed that as I was writing.
Then remembered OC from Redskins.
Right, but the mantra is generally BPA at a position of need (although, I'm starting to doubt the BPA strategy with some of these picks...), so that would seem to mean Ozzie defaults to the research and work that DeCosta did.

Either they just have no idea how to scout in the mid rounds or they don’t go bpa at all lol
its absolutely crazy looking at it like this but 4 of our top 7 OL are currently hurt in some manner or other

Earlier on this thread there was a discussion that we can't beat playoff teams.
LaCanfora published an article yesterday. We all know him well and some of his reports are questionable, but this paragraph sums it up perfectly: "Since 2013 the Ravens are 7-25 against teams that went on to the reach the playoffs that season. They are currently 1-4 against teams that would be in the 2018 postseason were it to start today"

That’s great and also sucks. Glad to see Marlon back but Stanley? Please let him be OK. We can’t be without that guy

This will be the game in which Lamar and Buck fool the Pittsburgh D with a fake hand-off, pull DB in on the run and then our sideline statue catches a TD pass.
You heard it here first.

Wouldn’t be surprised, but wirh our luck, he will only have 1 foot in bounds
