The best part is these 4 are better than either of the two first round bust DE’s in pittsburgh (Hood and Heyward). Ngata is just the icing on the cake.

I keep reading about how good Marcus Spears was on stopping the run then why were we ranked number 22 in run defense? I never really kept up with the Ravens a lot but all of you lifting Oz up like he’s a god you may wnat to be careful. He’s no JJ but you’re going into next season with almost half a new team.

Canty and Spears are both good run stoppers. Ravens run defense was atrocious this year. We left the Bank aghast every week – 100 yard rusher just about every game. Brilliant of the Wiz to tighten up the d-line so he can focus on inside backer and safety in the draft. D-Line rotation: Ngata, Arthur Jones, Canty and Spears. D-Ends/olb: Suggs, Upshaw, McFee. Cb’s: Webb, Smith, Graham, Jackson. Filling out nicely Oz. Can’t wait to see what you do with the 12, yes 12, picks. Please draft Minter!

I’d worry about your so called awesome team. Your point is totally null and void based on your teams signings of spaeth and burress

These players leaving was for scene a year ago…it’s what happens when you draft as brilliantly as Ozzie does pretty much every year. The real “blame” for these guys leaving is that game they played on February 2, this year. A year ago nobody outside of Baltimore knew who Paul Kruger, Cary Williams, & Danel Elerbe where. Now ya’ll wanna act like the Ravens are gonna fall flat on their face for these guys leaving….stop it. The Ravens have done this to better players before & the result was often another 10 win season & a deep playoff run. To my less knowledgeable Raven fans….relax….it’s March. And to all the Steeler fans who are plastered all over this….stop getting drunk off your haterade & pray that Harrison isn’t knocking Ben’s head off in a Ravens uniform next season.

He is not even a starter. Drafted to play DE in a 3-4 that may have been a poor fit for him. He could end up helping the Ravens but I wouldn’t bet on it.

I questioned why we didn’t ever cut him loose when his rookie deal expired. He always got away with the “3-4 DEs aren’t supposed to make huge plays” BS that people bandy about. He is a nice guy though apparently.

The entire D has under performed for years. Mr. Jones is a master player evaluator and is making every move with precision like Anatoly Karpov behind a chessboard. He’s going all in. Going for a Super Bowl run which will be achieved next season.

And I know; flaccid’s cap hit is less than last year’s…

The “wizard of oz” has hitched himself to a mid-range quarterback for the next 6 years…

The “wizard” has resigneda couple of bottom feeding no-names and a couple more castoffs.

As the Nest Burns…

GO STEELERS!

See Ellerbie and Kruger… just to name a few…

I’m tired of my fellow Cowboys fans sticking up for mediocrity.

We all know how awesome Oz and company are, they just don’t want to admit it.

U can’t fill holes with the draft cus then u end up with a team like the browns! We have let guys go every year and our d Is fine with or without #20 back there he’s past his prime anyways, I would rather rebuild after a Super Bowl! Something none of ur teams can say! Still the champs till next year hate on fellas!

That seems backwards…

Kind of excited to see what sort of train wreck happens in September once we see. How badly the ravens ruined their team.

He will be an asset in Baltimore.
