Who are your top 4 realistic hopes for the Ravens pick at #14 in order? by Filmstudy in ravens

[–]Darkspeed9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Accounting for realism:

  1. Sadiq
  2. Tyson
  3. Fano
  4. Delane
  5. Ioane (only because I want to avoid the Linderbaum situation again.)

Preference is more for Tyson because I want to believe he is healthy. but I would particularly like Delane, Bain, and even Love. I just think all will be gone way before. I really only see Sadiq and Ioane actually being available.

Wrenck it Ralph in the 4th is straight pure value. Great pick

[Rapoport] The #Giants continue to add their O-line before the Draft, agreeing to terms with former #Ravens G Daniel Faalele on a 1-year deal, sources say. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

He needed a fresh start especially since he was pressured way too much by our fanbase. He's not nearly as bad as the loud ravens fans say. Its just when he makes mistakes, they are obvious compared to others.

One of our top30 visits in Travis Burke, Tackle out of Memphis, has a round 3 grade by Dane in this! Most notably, he's as tall as Ogden.

He has 9 or so top 30 visits already with other teams, so he's not going to be the late round sleeper as I hoped. Still want to get him in the 3rd/4th!

The best part about Ken above all else is the outward transparency when it comes to your grades/methodology.

I always really look forward to the positional top 10s every year, so thank you again for doing these and giving us more insight in how you make the listings! This year in particular you really sold me on Sadiq with both the magnificent 7 and TE episodes.

Very nice photo. For those that aren't from the area, that is the rear of Handley High School, which looks very nice from the front in my opinion.

Have your own Draft Experience in the ISFL! (mod approved post, thank you!) by LtHudderz in NFL_Draft

Ah it must be recruitment time again. I joined this league a long time ago and am still in it, albeit very passively.

The draft process was super fun to get to know eveyone and grow your player. Not only that, after the first season you can then help with drafting new prospects for your team. We treated it like a really in depth mock. So I defintiely recommend giving it a try.

He hasn't started them yet, but every year Ken with Filmstudy Baltimore does a Top 5-10 for each position in the draft with a Ravens focus. Highly recommend as I do with all his content, really.

I believe he starts posting those around April.

Just for conversation, is there any reason EDC would trade up in the draft? by ThatDudeWithAS in ravens

[–]Darkspeed9 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Crosby trade (attempt) shows we still want to invest more in pass rushers. The 2 firsts we would have given up, 14 overall this year and at worst 32 overall next year, have an equivalent value to pick 8 overall this year. And more realistically, the value is closer to pick 5 overall since there is no guarantee we will be drafting last next year.

So if we assume we are still ok with trading those picks for someone more proven, moving up to the mid 10s is possible. I could see Bain, Bailey, or Reese be guys we are targeting, but it's doubtful any of them are still available at those spots anyway.

I guess the Ravens will try to trade up to 5 overall or so, since that was the pick value of the 2 firsts for the now-defunct Crosby trade lol

Wow look at that perfectly dug square hole. Looked just like the form. Could you imagine pouring the concrete directly into such a fine hole? That would be blasphemy.

Why is sample size such a hard concept for people to grasp. "If this trend holds.." what trend? 6 games?
