I like it. Never thought that he FELT like a 29. I hope he keeps this number moving forward. I might actually get this jersey, I’m a fan.

Really? IDK, I thought it suited him.

Ones I really like are Hayden & Mark's numbers. Hayden taking Anquan's number is perfect, Elite Hands lineage there. And then Andrews as the more explosive option, taking Steve Smith's number? I love it. 

Two of our greatest WR imports being honored by two players that figure to be the core of our offense going forward, that also happen to share similar aspects of play? You can't beat that.

Meanwhile, everyone pour one out for Hayden. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-7054051/Baltimore-Ravens-Hayden-Hurst-looking-one-got-away-Twitter.html

Though don't feel too bad. He'll parlay the buzz from this into a real body count. 

Saddest part is that shordy probably don't even know who Hayden Hurst is. So she'll never respond to his plea for dinner.

COLD WORLD

Say what you want about the steelers, but their fans were never even 1/10th as annoying as browns fans are this offseason...even when the steelers were at their peak around 2008-2011ish. browns have won like 8 games in 3 years and they've already become the most annoying base on this forum 😂

Cleveland fans are basically Boston fans without the success. Constantly demanding everyone congratulate and pay attention to them for rooting for a crappy team, and now just completely losing their minds over being the offseason hypbeasts. It's funny because the rest of the NFL fan world seems to find them lovable and adorable but basically anyone who has ever actually had to deal with them knows better.

Even if McCoy is signing, it'd be weird for Bisciotti to be the guy to announce that. I guess the announcements will be Ozzie + Ngata to the Ring of Honor maybe? Or maybe something happening with our uniforms? 

Gotta be Ring Of Honor announcement, i'd think

NFL site's All-Under 25 Team-  http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001032132/article/patrick-mahomes-joey-bosa-headline-nfl-allunder25-team

Orlando makes the list, but Marlon doesn't........

 

Offensive tackles: Braden Smith, Indianapolis Colts (23 as of Sept. 5) and Orlando Brown Jr., Baltimore Ravens (23 as of Sept. 5). After dominating at Auburn as a road-grading guard, the versatile Smith finished his rookie season as PFF's 18th-ranked tackle. Colts general manager Chris Ballard told reporters Smith would be given this offseason to stay and grow at right tackle -- that's good enough for me. Across from Smith, we've got Baltimore's Orlando Brown Jr., who needs polish as a run-blocker but gives our squad a wild-bodied 6-foot-8, 345-pound protector up front. Age prohibited us from nabbing Ryan Ramczyk (25), Laremy Tunsil, Mike McGlinchey, Jack Conklin, Taylor Moton (all turning 25 in August), Ronnie Stanley (25), George Fant (26) or Taylor Decker (25).

 

Cornerback: Jalen Ramsey, Jacksonville Jaguars (24 as of Sept. 5). Ramsey struggled at times inside a Jacksonville defense held hostage by a confused and wandering offense. None of that stops me from siding with a player who reimagined the position in 2017. One memory sticks: Watching Ramsey, as a rookie, comprehensively maul people during otherwise invisible All-22 special teams snaps. Ramsey brings innate nastiness to the role to go with next-level precision and dedication to the game.

Cornerback: Marshon Lattimore, New Orleans Saints (23 as of Sept. 5). The New Orleans corner fell off a tad from his wondrous Defensive Rookie of the Year campaign in 2017, but Lattimore's dance card featured bouts with Odell Beckham, Mike Evans, Antonio Brown, Alshon Jeffery and Calvin Ridley inside a Saints secondary that took time to figure itself out. Tre'Davious White (24)Denzel Ward (22) and Desmond King II (24) hover beside Lattimore as some of the game's brightest young corners.

 

 

22 year old Marlon not making even the honorable mentions, is as Raven-ey as it gets. Fine by me too. We've always been the monster beneath the surface, and that makes it all the more rewarding when we emerge to take our throne in the end. This team is primed.
