warrenblue Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Great news. I was kind of pissed that we could have lost a 4th rounder because of a ST player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamKid Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Happy for Maxx. If not for his injuries he might have become a name player at the position. Even now he's solid. Great blocker, solid hands, tough after the catch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamKid Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 I hope Juston is at least a tryout player. It would suck to lose an intriguing UDFA 2 years in a row. I was high on Alex Thompson last year too. He dropped out for whatever reason, and later popped back up on our AAF affiliate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coordinator0 Posted May 4, 2019 Author Share Posted May 4, 2019 I think this is a really nice UDFA class. Willis is obviously the best get, but Wesley, Worthington, Markus Jones, and Alaka are nice additions too. Jaylen Smith might have a decent chance at making the practice squad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sp6488 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 With Brown being signed by the Eagles, it looks like remaining options for the ILB position are Jon Bostic or roll with one the UDFA guys (or go light at the position). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coordinator0 Posted May 5, 2019 Author Share Posted May 5, 2019 I think the team is fine. They obviously like Board with his action last year and then there's Onwuasor, Young, and likely Levine rotating in for the main snaps. Steelers fans were oddly upset at losing Matthew Thomas from their practice squad to a future's contract from the Ravens too. They seemed high on him in their descriptions, so maybe he's someone worth taking a closer look at. Either way I'm not concerned about the position in the slightest. The skill-sets of Patrick and Kenny is what you want from linebackers seeing the field for the vast majority of snaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BareYourTeeth Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 There's also Josh Bynes but I agree with coordinator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamKid Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 We're only in our base look like what, 20% of the time? The rest of the time one of Young/Peanut are going to sub out for Levine, Clark, or another DB. It's a devalued position. We're golden at the spot imo. I'm sure Harbaugh is on his knees begging EDC to sign a DE/OLB though, hoping to avoid leaning on Tyus, Tim, and Jaylon's combined 0 starts. Unfortunately for him, this time he's out of luck. The Ravens' youth movement is happening and nothing is going to stop it. Makes me excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danand Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 We could potentially go with more beef up front and then add more speed with lighter linebackers behind. If Wink wants a more aggressive defense with linebackers shooting gaps more, having lighter linebackers and dimebackers will help. Also getting Clark more involved would be a positive. Having Young and Onwuasor being the primary linebackers and then add Clark, Jefferson and Levine on lighter packages. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure why you’re referring to “this time,” as if there’s some other time he persuaded FO to sign a vet DE/OLB to the detriment of the team. I think Ansah could be an awesome fit. I think we’d be fine heading into the season with our current group, but adding yet another proven pass rusher could take the group to a lethal level (and allow for rotation to keep everyone fresh). If anything, Ansah would benefit from joining a deeper group as it would allow him to ease in with a lighter workload early in the season coming off injury.
