chrishcovga Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I don't think Cody has recovered from his ACL injury during his rookie year. He's not the same guy that was a dominating force at Oklahoma 4 years ago. There are a couple of guys out there that I do think would immediately help us out..1. Ricky Manning Jr. - He's not a lights out cornerback, but he's definitely an upgrade over David Jones. Deltha O'Neal should be our third corner. Jones has " BURNT - TOAST " written all over him. And we've seen it all preseason!2. Joe Horn. - Caldwell could end up on the Pup List. Simpson, Holt and Chatman only offer help as special teamers right away, and Henry won't play until the Cowboys game. - Horn would be a legitimate stop-gap until Henry's return.

Really? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spor_tees Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I also saw the Ricky Manning Jr. cut and thought immediately that he would be a good option. Problem is, wasn't he one of the guys that got arrested for assaulting a college student in a restaurant just off of the UCLA campus?

Really?YES!! - He'll only be signed for a year. And we could still cut him after week 4. If Caldwell gets pupped, then exactly how many wide receivers will we be able to suit up healthy the first 4 weeks??? Chad's iffy. T.J.'s iffy... Chatman is always IFFY !!!!! and Holt can't get open unless we're in 5-wide sets. So... to answer your question...YES !! - Two Times == Uh UH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, UPGRADE over Jones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COB Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 The Ravens defensive backfield is looking pretty weak right now. I'd guess the Bengals will find several opportunities to use the forward pass against the Ravens in week 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
