SOME PERSONAL NEWS 🫡

@Letsch80 Fano is still on the board here though

@GordonNFL That's worst case scenario if Vega and Fano are off the board

Back for another one this week. Vega off the board in the top-10, who are you taking at 14 for the Ravens if this is the board?

Sadly was apart of PFF layoffs today. Very thankful they took a shot on me and gave me my first design position. Extremely proud of the work I did & my growth as a designer over the past four years. Will miss working in football. Gonna take a few weeks off to refresh and reload, but if anyone has any freelance opportunities for the time being, my DMs are wide open.

Following the PFF layoffs, I’m officially a free agent. Grateful for the connections & what I got to build there, even if the exit wasn’t how I would’ve drawn it up. Looking for roles in social, content, and video. DMs open. Let’s work.

Little life update

Unfortunately, I was a part of the PFF layoffs today. Really enjoyed my time there, where I met and worked with so many kind, hard-working and incredibly talented people. Excited to see what's next. Appreciate y'all.

@TFG_Football This is a genuinely incredible idea. Imagine doing this with the 2023 draft. I feel like there's no way I'd believe the Texans picked at both 2 and 3

If you could guarantee me this out performed my Draft Stream, I would absolutely do this 😂

@Yuri_Ravens @ColeJacksonFB Because he was a rookie and wasn’t he coming off an injury himself? Fano didn’t play much LT in college so I think they’d go Rosengarten to LT and Fano RT if they didn’t want to start Vinson. Kinda bullish on Vinson though

@ColeJacksonFB Well why didn’t he start last year when Stanley missed a game haha

They draft Vega and Stanley gets hurt, season is over They draft fano and Stanley gets hurt, season is not over.

Trey Hendrickson wants one thing: a Super Bowl 🏆 Can he get his first with the Ravens?! Trey Hendrickson interview is now LIVE on YouTube! Click the link for more from the Ravens new star pass rusher 🔗💪 youtu.be/BclNVX58O8U?si…

Another Fano>Baltimore pairing, though this time Vega Ioane is off the board. Does feel like that is taking over from Ioane as the chalk pick for the Ravens in mocks.

@Dhr_andersen By value I mean the difference between the contract at 14 and what you pay a top WR

@PFF_Gordon I can't recall a super bowl were the star wide receiver was the deciding factor in the game. Closest one is the deep shot to Tyreek Hill a couple of years back, but that was one play

Lot of replies to this so here are my thoughts: Hard to ignore the positional value of Lemon or Tyson But The drop off from Ioane to who they could get at 45 (assuming Pregnon doesn't fall to there) is bigger than the gap at WR imo It's tough!

@Therego_Deee It's not a mock, it's the list of players available when the Ravens came on the clock at pick 14 in a simulation

@PFF_Gordon This wasn’t your mock? Oh ok

Why are MFs obsessed with drafting a TE that plays like a WR…. “PFF Gordon just draft a WR there then?!…” Lol. The draft is too deep at TE to take a TE @ 14.

@GarrettSprints That plus his potential to be a tackle too I guess (I'd take Vega)

@PFF_Gordon I assume you only take Fano over Vega because you need a center?

Fano and T.J. Parker for the Ravens would be a good pair of selections. Fano over Ioane would prompt a lot of healthy debate.

@thesportssnob Personally would go Vega, but the two reasons you can argue Fano are: 1. Can potentially start at C day one 2. Might be a potential T of the future

@PFF_Gordon Why would the Ravens take Spencer Fano over Olaivavega Ioane? If they're going to move Fano to guard anyway, wouldn't it make more sense to just take the best pure guard (Ioane) in the draft?

@Shauncore I think the ideal scenario is that you can go WR/EDGE in R1 then get Pregnon in R2, one of the Cs in R3. But because they haven't solidified iOL like you said, it's a risk because I don't know that Pregnon makes it to their R2 pick

@PFF_Gordon Wish they would have really solidified IOL in FA because I'd go Lemon here, as Vega is glaring. But can pass on him if you land Lew or Slaughter

This is the board when the Ravens come on the clock at pick 14. Who are you taking?
