Looks like a lot of Ravens won't be playing, possibly including Flacco

"We're going to play the young guys," Harbaugh said. "It's going to be the guys that need to play in this game and we want to find about. Anybody that has health issue or anything like that is not going to even be thinking about playing."

That means 13 players for the Ravens, including Flacco, might not suit up Thursday: tight ends Dennis Pitta (finger), Crockett Gillmore (hamstring) and Maxx Williams (undisclosed); wide receivers Michael Campanaro (undisclosed), Chris Matthews (undisclosed) and Chris Moore (lower left leg); defensive end Bronson Kaufusi (broken ankle); and five players on the physically unable to perform list (Terrell Suggs, Steve Smith, Elvis Dumervil, Breshad Perriman and Lorenzo Taliaferro).

Left tackle Ronnie Stanley, the No. 6 overall pick, is considered a game-time decision after missing one day with a soft-tissue injury. "He wants to play," Harbaugh said.

 

 

Ravens are getting particularly thin at TE & WR

That could mean they might be looking closely at some of the guys we might end up cutting or waiving to try and stash on the PS..., especially at TE?

RUNNING BACKS

Can Brandon Wegher Repeat?

Wegher was a fun story last summer when he totaled three preseason touchdowns. While he earned a roster spot, the Panthers never had plans to incorporate him into the offense. But they remain high on Wegher’s potential, and if he shines like he did last preseason, Cameron Artis-Payne’s job may be in jeopardy.

      It’s time to discuss DANimal Morgan as our GM

      He’s responsible for two drafts classes. The first was one of the worst drafts I’ve ever seem. The second one is showing a ton of promise. I’m somewhere between skeptical and hopeful on Morgan.

      I'm a big fan of Dan. His ability to find productive players deep in the draft will pay off.  I'm going to give him 1.5 draft classes right now, because I do think it's a little unfair to evaluate his first year when he got the job in January, especially when we went into that draft not having a first round pick.  XL and Brooks are still big time TBD players. Both still have incredibly high ceilings, but both have also given us legitimate reasons to have a lot of pause. Trevin Wallace, Chau Smith Wade and Jatavion Sanders have IMO outplayed their draft position early in their careers. That's a great thing. He also got Coker and Demani Richardson as UDFAs that year. Given the situation we were in, I really don't mind the gamble on the high ceiling guys. Still may work out, still may not, but if you made a checklist of ideal situation for an NFL GM to walk into, ours was near the bottom of that list.  Every single 2025 pick is contributing in some way. That typically doesn't happen. I am absolutely blown away by this draft class 6 games in. Even the best GM's miss on occasion, and we can't expect Dan to be 100% on drafts moving forward. Ryan Fitzgerald was an excellent find as well.  Comparing our last two drafts to the previous few is pretty shocking. Can you imagine this season without our Rookies? It would not be good. Additionally, this roster only has 6 players with more than 6 years of experience, and two of those are specialist.  The next step is equally important, and still very much TBD. We have to avoid Cap Chaos.
