Are you counting on a trade back? Maybe I can't math, but your timing puts us on Friday at about 4-5 pm?

this is what happens when you have a puppy lol. I meant to say 31 1/2 hours. Thanks God!

I just kind of accepted that at first glance but I'm also quarantining and days are a foreign concept now, so I'm giving him a pass lol. But yeah, we're looking at like 31 hours.

I have a puppy shih tzu and sometimes she sleeps through the night while other times I take her out in the middle of the night. Anyway, I'm a bit tired and meant to say 31 1/2. I had to put my 16 year old to sleep in early February. Now we have an 11 week old we brought home a few weeks ago. She's a Diva and that's her name also
 
Jet Black Shih Tzu and she's come close to peeing on the Ravens door mat. If she does that, I'll have to send her back, but right now she's cool.

Here she is teething on an old sneaker and posing for the picture, I might add.

She may be small, but she's got one big personality. I brought her home at 2.8 lbs and she is now 4.31 lbs.

@RavensMania do we get puppy pics?[/QUOTE]

From Rap Sheet:

Sources: The #Dolphins have called the teams in front of them for a possible trade up from No. 5 and are gauging the price to come up to No. 3 to potentially take an offensive tackle. We could see a run on tackles in the Top 10 like never before.

I see Miami trading up from 18 for Herbert/Tua/Love.

there's 4 in that top tier and more than 4 teams that need one

Giants, Miami, Panthers, Cardinals, Jags, Browns, Jets, Bucs all for sure need tackle help and maybe the broncos too

maybe only the bengals, redskins, lions, raiders and 49ers in the top 15 arent realistic options to take a tackle lol

there will have to be some trading up - probably also why im assuming one of those teams is looking to trade for trent williams
 
Players who just seem to me like they'd be great ravens and who i really hope we draft some of:

Jonathan Greenard, EDGE, Florida
Robert Hunt, OL, Louisiana-Lafeyette
Denzel Mims, WR, Baylor
Bryan Edwards, WR, South Carolina
Jabari Zuniga, EDGE, Florida
Amik Robertson, CB, Louisiana Tech
Marlon Davidson, DL, Auburn

there are guys i grade higher, there are guys i think will get drafted higher, there are other players i'd pound the table for but these 7 are players who i think make the greatest sense as ravens for various reasons - but mostly they strike me as either great fits, ravens-like characters or both
 
I'm hoping for a pass rusher or DL at 28th, but I also wouldn't be surprised if the Ravens went with a CB or S if thats's what they deem BPA.

I get that the strength of the defence is the secondary, 100%. But there's a reason that it's the strength, it's also a very expensive secondary. That is going to need to change in the next few years, when guys on the offence, Lamar, Stanley, Andrews need a bigger piece of the pie. A young, high end piece in the secondary that's gonna be cheap for a while could be appealing for EDC

Not that it's what I hope for, but I could see a scenario where EDC goes with a Mckinney or Gladney at 28th

id be surprised if its a corner just because they wont get on the field in year 1 and we're looking for impact players - safety makes more sense and if safety is BPA then sure - if corner's BPA i think we'd be trading out of that pick

A run on tackles would be great for us

It would make zero difference tbh. Thomas, wills, wirfs, and becton will all be gone long before 28, whether they all go top 10 or some fall to the teens only has an effect IF it causes guys like josh jones and niang and Cleveland and Austin Jackson to go early, which also isn’t much factor anyway since jones and Cleveland both had a real strong chance to go before 28 anyway.

if A run on tackles in the top 10 causes teams in the teens to reach on a josh jones, which in turn causes a team in the 20s to reach as well, then it helps, but the run on tackles is gonna push great prospects down the board and teams won’t pass on them to reach for a R2 tackle.

it would take real stupidity from multiple teams for a run on tackles to help us all the way down at 28, which I suppose shouldn’t be ruled out
