Add one more team to the mix from today: Ravens were actively going after Jets’ safety Jamal Adams, per source. But Ravens and Jets could not reach an agreement.

I'd like to see 'em !@#$ing draft one.

But guys like that just aren't easy to spot. It's so difficult to understand how baseline athleticism will translate to coverage ability at the next level. Why? Hell if I know; seems like it should be pretty easy.

But for whatever reason, someone like Ragland can put up virtually identical testing numbers to someone like Schobert and Schobert's just better in space.

I mean look at these figures:

40 times: 4.76 vs. 4.72 (edge Ragland)
10 yard split: 1.62 vs. 1.65 (edge Schobert)
20 yard shuttle: 4.3 vs. 4.28 (Edge Ragland)
Broad Jump (big for SPARQ scores; considered a strong proxy for explosion): 111 vs 116 (edge Ragland)

Both 6'1'', Ragland 247 vs. 244 for Schobert.

And giving anyone an edge anywhere is academic; there's no discernible difference anywhere; hundreths of a second here and there. Both came out of the 2016 draft class. There virtually indistinguishable as prospects.

Someone explain to me why Schobert is so much better in space? I sure as hell can't figure it out and you can't exactly glean 'savvy' at the college level.

Being all in and being stupid aren't the same thing.

I’ve been critical when it’s deserving.

Speaks, Hitchens, Clark (after the first few weeks) etc.

But you’ve been nothing but a whiny bitch lately that won’t give credit where it is deserved and Veach clearly can’t win.

Damn, Ravens.

Well yeah, but I'm saying shit I would have even offered Matt Ryan.

That team needs to be rebuilt from the ground up.
[Reply]

Well might as well top off with more stupid then because so far all the big money signings don't look like good moves.

Name a member of the team or front office, and you can find a thread on here bitching about them (with Mahomes being the one possible exception). This thread is just one of hundreds.

Face it - we're a bunch of entitled whiners.

All the contenders made moves right?
[Reply]

I don't think they could realistically do that.

Julio got paid so no, Calvin Ridley makes nothing...you're literally at guys like Trufant, Beasely, Mack, Freeman....no one wants those guys.

Then you question if you should trade Jake Mathews but I doubt you get a 1.

The only positive of today is that none of our direct competition got any better either.
[Reply]

Clearly all of their GMs suck and should be fired.
[Reply]

Well I'm going to get real with you, I'm 39 years old, every team in the league has played in a bowl in my lifetime except......KC, NYJ, Cleveland and Houston, 2 of those teams didn't have one for awhile.

Forgive me if I have 0 patience.

Ravens traded for Peters
Pats got Sanu
Texans traded for everyone

Lot of the AFC teams made deals.

I guess it doesn't count cause it wasn't today.
