will be starting next week. I really thought this guy showed some potential last night once he got into the flow of the game.

Of course, I still expect the Panthers to go after another DT, but I'm at least encouraged that we have a better option than Nick Hayden.

Yeah, I posted that up the second it was revealed that Kemo was done for the year. I told everyone not to sleep on him, I'm a die hard LSU fan and I watched the guy play for 4 years, he definitely has game, and he definitely has potential. I guess since my name isn't Zod no one paid attention :D I've enclosed what I originally said just to prove I'm not full of poppycock.

#1. Great post, you really did your research.

#2 Out of all those options I would prefer Walker coming back, he isn't horrible and knows the system and may give us a discount.

Being a die hard LSU fan, I urge Panther fans not to sleep on Marlon Favorite, I watched him for the last few years in every LSU game and the guy can stop the run, now whether or not his talent will translate to the NFL as quickly as we would need it to remains to be seen...he does have talent, but at times with LSU he seemed to lack motivation, now he has all the motivation he needs to prove himself and earn a spot. He seems like the kind of player that could either be cut by the end of the preseason, or really show up and be a nice surprise for us. I hope it's the latter...

Although, surprisingly enough...I feel ok if we don't sign anyone, I think Meeks philosophy and his "swarm the ball" style are really gonna cater to our players and I'm sure out of all the defensive linemen we have, at least ONE of them has to possess the talent to step up and make some plays on a consistent basis.

I'd also like to declare that after last night, I'm no longer of the opinion that we'll be ok with what we have.

Favorite and Irvin looked pretty decent last night. I could honestly say I would only keep them and cut the rest of the DT's. I would keep Lewis but my patience is waring thin on him, he's ok but without a Kemo caliber DT next to him he's just going to get taken out of plays. If I were Hurney I do everything possible to get us a good DT with some potential. Get Corey Williams and pick up one of the Titans or Giants cuts and I think we could have something.

After seeing the Giants D-line, I would not mind taking their sloppy seconds at all.

      Maxx Cosby deal with Ravens off.

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.

      Hendrickson to Ravens

      Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
