Now if they just knew how to create an offense!:lolBIG:
The Ravens have a history of doing well on draft day. Linebacker Ray Lewis, tight end Todd Heap and safety Ed Reed all were picked in the bottom half of the first round.
The NFL draft is just 8 days away, it will be interesting to see who they pull out of the draft with their late 1st round choice.
Huge needs for Baltimore, a team that was picked by many to win the Super Bowl late last season....big question marks-
Is Jonathan Ogden retiring? Which would leave a massive hole at LT....I think Ogden will be back...I don't think he would put the team in that position, retiring without notice.
The offensive line is still their biggest problem IMO...and finsing another cornerback.
They lost their all-world defensive mutli purpose weapon Adalius Thomas, who was a salary cap casualty of the worst kind!
Still the heart of the team is the linebackers, Lewis, Suggs and Scott , how much longer they can rely on Lewis is another question.
I think they made a nice upgrade at RB, the organization was looking for a multipurpose back who could not only pick up a blitz well, but also be a true asset in the passing game, elusive in the open field. Jamal Lewis no longer possessed those skills...
One thing is for sure the window is almost shut on the Ogden-Lewis-Reed era..... do they have one Super bowl run left in them, time will tell. They sure could use another late first round gem by Ozzie Newsome and Co. we'll find out in 8 days.
