Rhule would have done it, trade from 9 to 1 just to have the fifth-year contract option. Brilliant strategery. Trust the process. /s

Don’t feed trolls. They’ll drag you down into the mud, beat you with experience, and they seem to like it.

Really? In the real world, virtually every employer chooses a candidate that they assess will be the best fit for their system, job description, culture, compensation scale. Any candidate that is a lesser fit, by definition, is not a better candidate.

I agree with adding OL depth or edge. We need both for sure but, I keeping waking up in the middle of the night with the cold sweats thinking of the Tampa game, fourth quarter. My inner child was traumatized.

LOL. I think we see this mock very differently. Cheers!

If the draft went like this, I would be very satisfied...

Please, Lord, let it happen. This would be Pay per View worthy…

… and

Why, yes, they are. Could they get him ready to start by year 2? Maybe. Year 3 more likely but, what do I know. Young and Stroud look much more ready to start this season. I think if you look at the FA moves, I think we are be set up to ‘win now’ or ‘win sooner, not later’; not in 3 years.

You’ll need a bigger wardrobe…

I was leaning Richardson when we were at 9 but, not at 1. I think on a longer time horizon and with the right coaching staff, he can be a really special player.

+100 for ‘agency’. Don’t see that used as often as it should be…

Tell me you don't want another Robbie Anderson without telling me you don't want another Robbie Anderson...

It's an unthankful job but, damn it, somebody has to do it...

Right on cue...

Will respectfully disagree. ‘Reading’ a defense correctly in real time is pattern recognition, which is tightly linked to mathematical aptitude and overall intelligence. I have no idea if Luke ever took the Wonderlic or his score if he did but, I would bet you dinner at a high end steak house that Luke would measure and test in the upper decile for pattern recognition, math aptitude and general intelligence. In any event, this doesn’t contradict your comments on football ‘instincts’, which some might alternately call ‘situational awareness’. Great players have great ‘instincts’, no matter how that is defined. Cheers.

Tepper did...

Of all the positions on the field, QB is the most cerebral. The ability to read (see and recognize) and process information quickly, in real time, is what every team is looking for. How is an intelligence test, imperfect though it may be, not useful for evaluating a QB? At the very least, it is an additional data point for consideration.

This is cringe worthy. Please, have some self respect.

Please do it. This is over the top.

“Oh, then I *really* can’t afford you.”

Unobtainium...

I hear you. They don't have to extend the original offer. That would be the role of the agent to mediate the relationship and help Lamar get something respectable from the Ravens. The Ravens FO would be wise to throw Lamar something to show a modest amount of good will IF they even want him back at this point, which I am not sure that they do. Lamar may have burned the bridge beyond repair with his tweet today.
