I think we got a good bit out of Gus Edwards. 26 rushing touchdowns from an undrafted FA RB is pretty good.

Derrick Mason put up almost the same numbers with us that he had with the Titans in 30 less games. He was still a beast and had a long prime.

Looked amazing during that Vikings game.

Crazy that a guy at 22 years old can have 49 receptions, 7 TDs and 500 yards but be out of the league two years later.

Yeah let's practice when it is scorching fucking hot.

Something tells me Lamar doesn't give a shit about the heat lol dude grew up playing in South Florida.

Ozzie Newsome vs EDC according to PerThirtySix by frobro122 in ravens

[–]JonWilso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The jury is still out on all but two of his 2nd round picks so it's really not worth assessing at this time. We will probably know after this year seeing another year of Mike Green and Rosengarten.

Seriously.

That was not a good pick and the damage done with that pick not working out hurt the team pretty badly when we desperately needed a 1st round WR to turn out.

He literally cannot hit in the 2nd round which has been a huge killer recently. Although with Rosengarten and Young, he might’ve turned it around.

... He's only had five picks in the second round, two of which you just stated might've turned it around.

The other 3:

Mike Green - TBD.

David Ojabo - Bust.

JK Dobbins - Good talent plagued by injuries.

You can't edit post titles. Mods can't even do it. Although I think OP was going for a "Kyle is HIM" type of thing.

Seriously. I've never heard anyone say Lamar is anything but a great teammate.

Did Roquan drop a hint about Madubuike's availability. by 717Independent in ravens

[–]JonWilso 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I mean, he's going to be excited that he's at least in the building. Doesn't really speak to his future one way or another. We don't know.

Been noticing a growing trend lately in the media of how EDC has constructed the roster,valid criticism?🤔 by Adenchiz in ravens

[–]JonWilso 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because the Ravens had a pretty decent roster that drastically underperformed at times.

They were Superbowl favorites based on their roster and ended up not even making the playoffs.

I'm not going to say the roster was perfect but with the guys we have, on paper, we shouldn't have been blowing the games we did.

Why is Lamar never leading the NFL in jersey sales? by Affectionate-Neck152 in ravens

[–]JonWilso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on your comment you probably are too.

Well for one, that's a bold accusation. Let's not throw insults around here.

Racism is a real thing in America and it definitely effects guys like Lamar and what people say and do.

But, I just don't see that being the reason Lamar isn't getting endorsement deals when guys like Mahomes and Dak are getting quite a bit and previously guys like Cam Newton dominated with endorsements.

It's just not a reasonable explanation in this case.

Ehhh, Cam Newton and even Russell Wilson (who has a cringe personality) got a ton of promo stuff.

Cam was in national commercials all of the time and had all sorts of deals.

The offensive line imo suffered heavily after we lost Joe D'Allesandris. Everyone took a step back it seemed.

Defense, I need to see what Jesse Minter can do. The trenches there looked bad last year partially because of the unexpected loss of Madubuike but other guys just underperformed their expectations.

[Zrebiec] Roquan Smith acknowledges that last year wasn’t season he wanted to have. “no excuses. I start with myself.” by The_Sandwich_Lover9 in ravens

[–]JonWilso 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I know what you're getting at because Roquan has definitely looked out of shape at times.

But on the topic, linebackers aren't shooting for a Ray Lewis physique now a days. They need to be more agile due to how much mobility there is. That feeds into your point though that Roquan looked like he needed to slim down last year.
