I don't know about you all, but I'm excited about this defense! The potential is through the roof :obama:Travis Jones is a menace and should've been taken early in the 2nd. Ojabo should be available around week 10 and they'll ease him in, but 2023 with him and Oweh:wow:

Hamilton bout to be a chess piece that I'm hoping McDonald can disguise. If he can put fear into opposing QBs playing close to the LOS, they'll do anything they can to get away from him leading to mistakes because they're too focused on him potentially blitzing :blessed:

Let's face it. This isn't going to be the Ravens year, but they are rebuilding with dominant, top tier talent.

They got excellent pieces for rebuilding the defense and offensive line so far.

This 4th round bout to let us know how soon the Ravens right the ship. They have almost filled every hole on defense. I think they still need a corner. I was gonna say MLB, but I think McDonald will turn Harrison into what the Ravens envisioned him to be (MLB 1) and he'll get Queen right in the film room...just hope it translates to the field.

They need to get a WR, CB and OT early and they need to get an insurance policy at RB. Allgeier from BYU, Pierce from Florida or the RB from Georgia...can't think of his name. I'd also get another DE/OLB since Ojabo wont be ready and Bowser is out, TE because the offense hasnt been the same since Hurst left and it runs better with 2 playmaking TEs and an OT just in case the first OT isn't ready or turns into a damn project.

I'm seeing the Ravens signing either Julio Jones or Jarvis Landry.

I'd love to see AB, but its never going to happen.

Those are the only remaining impactful WRs I can see that are FAs. Even though Julio isn't as impactful, the optimist in me thinks he might bring something to the offense. Jarvis would be dynamic in this offense and his presence as a run blocker will be felt immediately.

I'm holding out hope for Landry. He would fit here

They really are.

They've got the best and highest graded center EVER since pff started.

Hamilton is the best safety.

Ojabo has more pass rush moves than Hutchinson, Thibodeaux and just about every other DE/OLB taken before him. Will he put up better numbers throughout his career? That remains to be seen and he'll face better OTs in the AFC than Thibodeaux will face in the NFC, but we'll see what happens throughout their hopefully 10+ year careers.

Jones is a Top 5 DT that should give the Ravens the best of both worlds as a run stopper and pass rusher. Interior pass rush is needed just as badly, maybe even more than outside pass rush. Madabuike and Jones are going to be so scary for guards and centers to block :obama:

hell no man

I'd rather just run with what we got and see if anybody emerges

Im done with signing these WR who are past their primes

if we're gonna go after a WR then swing for the fences and trade for DK Metcalf

I'm with you on the signing of the old vets. It pisses me off too.

What are the Hawks asking for in exchange for DK?

Only comparable pick to Hollywood in this draft is Calvin Austin from Memphis. He's not as fast, but he's a small deep threat and Memphis used him on the outside and inside. If they get him, I'd be good with the them using the young boys this year.
