diamondbull424 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 McSorely isn’t helping us judge some of our receivers. His arm is too limited to allow us to really target some of the intermediate routes. That said, Wesley and Scott haven’t shown that they can force him to throw their hands way like we saw with Boykin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn’t stood out to me yet, but I also haven’t been paying him enough attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diamondbull424 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Jaylon Ferguson is definitely not someone we want dropping back into coverage on any sort of regular basis. He did not look good in space. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think McSorely’s arm is too weak to allow Scott’s game to shine. For that reason I hope we see more of that 3rd QB next game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamKid Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 On 1st watch there was nothing that struck me as flat out bad. Pretty much everyone we wanted to see pop, did. Sieler was a little bit of a disappointment for me though. He had a couple pressures, one of which was a razor close to becoming a Sack, but he spent too much time on the ground or stifled by a single blocker. I wanted dominance, not Hot & Cold play. Willis III's play was a let down as well. Trash leverage saw him pushed around quite a bit. Quick Hits - Boykin and Hill look as advertised. - Kenny Young flashed, Chris Board didn't. Peanut looks ready to be the man at ILB. - Ervin didn't come off as the sleeper some have touted him to be. - We're going to be fine at OLB. Once again we saw Williams and Bowser perform to their station. - Our Safeties are good. The Elliot and Clark duo will be fun to watch all preseason. - Andrews and Hurst were out there too long imo. Welcome back Ravens football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondbull424 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 One thing I will say is that while Young popped. He also had some negative plays that also popped, whereas Board never had a play that I can recall that stood out negatively. So since Peanut can be our splash linebacker, it makes sense having his running mate be a guy that makes few mistakes out there and can play the Robin role to his Batman (so to speak). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamKid Posted August 9, 2019 Author Share Posted August 9, 2019 On an overall team note, I thought we looked way more physical than the Jags. The young guys on the team have adopted the Raven mentality in full. It's great to see. Swagger. Swarm. Smack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondbull424 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 And yeah, Boykin was on another level over the rest of our receivers. It was apparent. Can’t see him not starting along the outside. He just has too much he can do. He didn’t make the plays when he was forcefed, but it didn’t look like he couldn’t make those catches. But he can operate at the short, intermediate, and deep levels of the offense. Plus his blocking was pretty good. He doesn’t seem overwhelmed by big moments, how do you take this guy off the field for a Seth Roberts or even a Chris Moore? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
