A surprising answer after Ravens fans were in full-blown meltdown due to the losses of free agency"The free agency doors opened and the 2019 league year began with multiple losses. The Ravens lost their star middle linebacker C.J. Mosley in a bidding war with the New York Jets. Pass rusher Za’Darius Smith joined the Green Bay Packers in the NFC North. Terrell Suggs shocked the NFL by leaving his long-time franchise and opted to end his career in Arizona with the Cardinals. All of this left Ravens fans in panic mode as the only move made was signing TE Nick Boyle to a three-year contract. The blogs were set on fire and Facebook groups were left in turmoil. Twitter raged and we even meme’d it.Then Hayden Hurst Jersey White , the next day, Eric DeCosta signed veteran RB Mark Ingram and followed up with the bombshell news of adding FS Earl Thomas.After the free agency glow wore off, SB Nation decided to poll Ravens fans on whether or not the franchise got better or worse in free agency.Ravens fans, sign up for FanPulse HERE!Did the Ravens get better in free agency?I’ll be honest, I voted in this poll and I responded yes. The team added quality players and cleared a bunch of cap space for 2020 and beyond. While great players left and signed mega-deals elsewhere, they added a compensatory pick or two for DeCosta to work with. The team still looks rather strong and I’m confident the Ravens will be defending their AFC North crown.The team isn’t perfect, but I think it’s fair to say the Ravens got better. They added a superstar free safety https://www.theravenslockerroom.com/authentic-hayden-hurst-jersey , the most complimentary tailback for Lamar Jackson, traded away Joe Flacco for a fourth-round pick and still have room to work with in the 2019 NFL Draft. The defense is still the best in the NFL until proven otherwise and the draft will (hopefully) bring about offensive talent for Jackson. At the annual owners meetings last week, Harbaugh expressed his thoughts on when the draft should be."With the NFL draft less than a month away, arugably the most exciting, anticipated time of the offseason is upon us. Between mock drafts, pro days, and prospect interviews Womens Lamar Jackson Jersey , there’s a lot to look forward to over the next several weeks. However, if it was up to our very own John Harbaugh, we wouldn’t have to wait so long to see which players are selected on draft day. Out of all the coaches who spoke to the media at last week’s NFL owners meetings in Arizona, Harbaugh was the only one who touched on the actual date of the draft and brought up some interesting points. “I think the draft should be earlier,” said Harbaugh. “We don’t need to be so involved where we need three months to watch the players ourselves. Let’s draft these guys, let’s get them to us”. Harbaugh definitely isn’t alone in this sentiment, as many have been voicing for the draft to be moved earlier in the offseason for quite some time. It’s hard to see where Harbaugh is coming from and he certainly makes some valid points. Moving the draft to say Lamar Jackson Jersey White , early April, or even late March, seems like a logical idea. This would benefit all parties involved - the players, the fans, and each NFL organization. Given how long the NFL offseason is already, having the draft over three months out from the end of the regular season only makes it drag on longer. Obviously, for the few teams that advance into the divisional https://www.theravenslockerroom.com/authentic-lamar-jackson-jersey , conference, and super bowl rounds of the postseason, the time gap between the end of the season and the draft is not quite as long, but these teams still have more than enough time to go through their preparation. Acquiring rookies earlier in the offseason would give organizations more time to work with them and get them adjusted to training schedules, routines, and further their development. It works both ways, too Womens Mark Andrews Jersey , as the incoming players would be given extra time to acclimate themselves to the demands of the NFL and get started with their new teams. Harbaugh also touched on this, as well. “And let’s be honest 鈥?nobody’s taking their last semester of school. You want to get in the real world? Let’s understand how that works,” said Harbaugh. “Let’s get them working on football so they can contribute their first couple of years”. It’s definitely an interesting topic to discuss, and Harbaugh’s words may serve to spark a potential ongoing debate about moving the draft up in the near-future. Whether or not it actually gains traction and amounts to anything remains to be seen, however. What do you think? Is Harbaugh correct - should the NFL move the draft up sooner in the offseason?
