Yeah me too but the Ravens are always value versatility above all else. Yannick is a straight up pass rusher and an average one at that, if that is all he brings to the table it's not surprising his snaps were limited.

In the end though he played fine for us and actually brought up his efficency numbers when he came to us from the Vikings. So he was actually a lot more effective in our fluid scheme/rotation than he was in the more static situation he was in with the Vikes and even the Jags those last couple years. Beyond that I don't see how he can convince himself he should've been playing over Pernell McPhee when we had to stop someone like Derrick Henry- especially on early/run downs. I mean there was no reason to alter our overall defensive strategy for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is highly overrated as a rusher in my opinion, obviously the Ravens agree. Losing Judon was a much bigger loss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Reed Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Watching the Bears preseason game, and granted, it’s the kids first game ever, but saw Justin Fields bail on a clean pocket and roll out to his right trying to extend a play with his legs. Im curious, if at any point in his career he shows to be inaccurate at times or a run-first guy at times, will the “runningback!” criticisms be lobbied at him as well? For some reason I doubt it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like YN the player, but I will be thrilled about the Ravens chances of winning the game opening night if he's out there consistently for run downs.

JJAW finally did something good in an NFL game (even if it is only pre-season) Thought he’d make a career out of those types of plays based on his time at Stanford. Though I also learned a valuable lesson with him busting in the pros with regard to analyzing draft prospects. The two most important traits for WRs succeeding at the next level are IMO 1) consistently reliable hands and 2) ability to create last minute separation. I was in love with JJAW’s ability to attack the football in the air, but he was like a taller James Proche, delivering highlight plays but with little separation. With better route physicality, he’d make things a whole lot easier on himself. That said, nice to see him making plays with the Mighty Joe Flacco.

M.10.E Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Welp Dobbins most likely out for the year. Hopefully this is our only serious injury for the year on offense. RB is one of the more replacable position in football thankfully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sp6488 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 One of our own was on the Filmstudy podcast with Ken McKusick I’m pretty sure. Don’t want to tag him if he doesn’t want the recognition :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
