ill straight up cry if we take matt ryan...im praying to god that atlanta or KC wants him. i like scotts new mock where we trade down with NO and take mcklevin. that sounds good to me.
another guy i really want in a ravens uni is tommy zbikowski. i was wathcing some film of him the other day, and he just plays like a raven. Hed be a great backup/special teams player, and i think he could push dawan landry as a starter. id like to see us grab him at the end of the 3rd round. I guess my ideal ravens PREDRAFT mock would look like this...
1)Leodis Mcklevin
2)Chad Henne
3)Tommy Zbikowski
4)Steve Slaton
6)Tommy Blake
something like that anyways, id like to see all those players in a ravens uni before the day is over...well, not really henne, but everyone seems so set on us taking a QB, id rather have him in the 2nd then ryan in the 1st

Zbikowski is a clod back there in the secondary, but that said I hate our history with ND players and he would be a depth pick. I don't like his coverage skills at safety and our safeties do have one on one coverages assignments frequently and I don't see him being able to win most of those match ups.
As for Slaton, we don't need another addition to the injury report.

I would love it if Scott's mock draft actually happened.
1. McKelvin
2. Flacco
3. Choice

Well ESPN says Rams will take Chris long so that means that the Falcons will take Glenn Dorsey so maybe Ryan will fall to us.....?

Apparently Michael Smith is reporting for ESPN that the Rams will take Chris Long, and NFL Network is saying that it is confirmed that the Falcons will select Matt Ryan....dont know if there is any truth to these but there is a ticker on ESPN that says Rams have chosen Long.

BLASPHEMY!!!!!
HOW DARE YOU SAY HIS NAME!
We will not dare speak his name and continue this horrid curse that plagues him. We are only allowed to refer to him as that certain linebacker from Oklahoma.
BREAK THE CURSE!

yea I heard we may give up Suggs, there will be a riot in the inner harbor if that happens! I wont lose faith in Ozzie but he is putting his nuts on the line w/ that idea.

I'm singing the praises of Ozzie if he makes that deal. Terrell Suggs while a good pass rusher, disappears at times during the season. He's asking for Freeney type money which is way too much IMO. I do think that we would have to be getting another pick back from St. Louis. Maybe their 3rd round pick.

I said it in another thread, if Ozzie does this I'm the first to go on record for calling for his head!
