If John Brown is on this roster in 2019 it wouldn't shock me if the position isn't even touched.

imo we should sign Brown and keep both Snead and Crabtree. i like Moore also, but he needs more snaps ans will be in his fourth season in 2019 as well. it would be wise to draft another receiver next season and maybe take a page out of the Steelers playbook and use 2nd and 3rd rounds to draft WRs in most drafts.

When's the last time you've seen a Ravens WR/TE/RB make an impressive YAC play? If you're struggling to recall any such plays, there's a reason, Ravens rank 31st in YAC this season! We need more explosive skill position players to surround Lamar with.

It's a running back problem as well as WR, but it is an annual tradition in Baltimore to overhype WRs just to have them prove it's a mediocre group. Not surprising people here don't see it as a need

What do you mean? I’ve personally asked for more YAC with a guy like Parris Campbell and I know I read other people mentioning guys with YAC ability.

Ah I didn’t mean here as in this forum or anyone in particular, poor wording. Just meant in general there’s always tons of talk in Baltimore everyone convincing themselves our WRs are better than they are. Happens every year.

Washington hasn't look good, Coates is a bust, Bryant was a bust, Wheaton has done nothing this year. Out of this group, only one guy is a stud and still on the team. One guy was a stud (Sanders) and did really help them that season. Wallace was a decent #2.

In the most recent draft, instead of Washington, who hasn't contributed this year, they could have had Lorenzo Carter or Justin Ried, guys that would be a great asset to that subpar defense. A defense that will likely cost them a playoff win.

This strategy hasn't actually paid off as much as it may seem at first glance. Over the past six drafts, only two of these high pick guys have been worthwhile (Sanders and Juju). Their strategy would look awful without Brown.

With the loss of shaizer, it fucked up their whole defense..

I heard a lot of good things about him, problem is I couldn't scout a safety to save my life.

I’m pretty bad at scouting safeties too, I actually have backed off on Thompson a little bit because I see him getting very aggressive on short routes and play fakes when he’s supposed to be in single deep, idk if I should knock him for that or not lol

Maybe I better put this here but what sites are good to learn what prospects to watch for in the upcoming bowl games. A lot of smaller schools playing today. Also what do you guys think of Easton Stick. Thought he'd make a pretty good backup to Lamar
