Pre Injury Derrick Burroughs was very good. Robert James was no question a star.

I think Carter flashed in the beginning of the season prior to the wrist injury. McDermott does not fawn over young players. I would not assume anything from the press conference.

They may need Douglas depending on the draft. I am hard-pressed to believe McDermott starts a rookie CB unless it is an exceptional talent. Douglas was pretty good prior to last year and had knee and back injuries last year. Steph Gilmore might make sense too. He had good numbers for Minny last year.

Nohl Williams is intriguing. 14 careers takeaways, good in man coverage and very physical, nice open field tackler. Alfred Collins at DT is impressive the way he sheds blocks.

Remembering how Mahomes played catch as our corners played 8 yards off the ball in the playoffs likely points to a rookie draft pick unless a good man to man veteran comes available.

He is intriguing but they are already carrying Von's contract for the often injured role.

Ben Williams was a very good player. Paup was magic the one year he dominated. Bennett was dominant.

Free agent Safety is the most likely add. I don't see McDermott starting a rookie alongside Bishop next year.

Peterman, Jaimie Nails, Ed Spriggs, Maybin, Corey Moore.

I think Cook has proved he deserves a pay upgrade. He has great talent and seems to be getting better year to year. That said, he is not getting $15mm. I guess he is negotiating what his agent told him. Beane will figure it out. I do not see him being traded because of an offseason demand.

Remember the last time the Ravens were the number 1 seed, the Chiefs jumped out to an early lead and made the Ravens one dimensional. The Ravens are not the team to play from behind.

Throw in Knox, Hollins, Gilliam and of course #17, it is a physical group.

RIP John. May he rest in peace.

This is exactly what it is. They never send an extra rusher in the first quarter. Same ol, same ol.

The endzone pass and the third down pass on crossing patterns, the receiver had no separation. Cooper should help with just that. I think it is a great pickup. He will also benefit Knox and Kincaid by the attention he will draw.
