Earlier in the week, we disclosed some teams that have injury and off-the-field concerns with prospects. Two other players who sources have mentioned in the past couple of days as also coming up with medical redflags are Louisville cornerback Jaire Alexander and Mississippi State offensive tackle Martinas Rankin. The problem they see with Alexander is relating to his knee. A knee injury caused him to miss multiple games last season. Sources did not describe the nature of Rankin's injury. If Alexander slides in the first round or Rankin slides on Friday night, any drop could be injury related.

Per Aaron Wilson, Ravens are keying in on McGlinchey or if he's gone then Kolton Miller.. very good news for our chances of getting Ridley as I've felt they're the main team ahead of us who would target him. Cowboys maybe but I see them going with Sutton (type of player Jones loves) or defense, probably Vander Esch.

That means Ridley to Bills or Patriots?

I would be so damn excited if somehow Ridley fell to us. So the media can stop with the excuses of Cam doesn't have any weapons. He would give our offense some much needed help.

No more talk about how weak our WR's are compared to other teams especially in our division.

Both are options to trade up for QB and have huge defensive needs. Plus Belichick's MO has never been drafting WRs high. He finds playmakers in the mid-late rounds and FA. Cooks was traded yes but they're also getting Edelman back and Mitchell will be healthy. I don't see them looking at any WR in round one.

      Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.

      I wake up this morning full of rage towards Ronald McDonald Rivera / Gettleman / Hurney

      I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us.

      From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
