Store NewsThe Gurode has expressed interest in returning to Baltimore The Ravens need young, strong, athletic lineman. Not a bunch of middle aged men. The Ravens oline is a mess. Oher leads the league in penalties, McKinnie struggles on the blind side with speed rushers, Birk get overpowered, Heyward stays injured. Ravens Ray Lewis Jersey General Manager Ozzie Newsome made it clear at the end-of-season press conference that the team plans to add at least one new center to the roster next season. In crucial situation the Raven can't protect Flacco or punch it in on the goal line. Get young strong guys who a long term solution. Don't pay millions to replace an old man with another old man. This years draft in deep with interior linemen. Live with McKinnie for now but add a C/G type. Boren can step in a guard or center. Before we line up and play in 2012, there will be another center on this football team in some capacity free agency, draft or whatever, Newsome said. Much like the WR position, the Ravens Joe Flacco Jersey brass do not trust young guys on oline. Maybe this is part of the reason the Ravens offense has been mediocre for the past decade. This is a very important pick for the Ravens. But Caldwell may have some input about Saturday. If Birk returns it could make sense to go for Koppen. Ozzie will use his magic scale to weigh out the best fit. The status of last year's starter Matt Birk is up in the air as he is contemplating whether he wants to retire or return for his 15th NFL season. He is also an unrestricted free agent, so if he decides to come back he and the Ravens will have to work out a new contract. Mason was a rock. And that play was more about possession than speed. Joe zoomed that ball in there. Lee was consumed by his fate. Mason would have sealed his fate as a champion. If I was to choose between these guys, I would want Nick Hardwick. He has retirement concerns apparently yet he is only 30 years old. I think if he played with a real team he would want to continue playing. He would demand less money than most of the other free agents even though he is pro bowl caliber at the position. It is easy to think that we can just draft Konz but guess what all these teams will be in the same shoes as us. I think Matt birk and Gurode should be on this list. After Hardwick I choose Gurode. If both fail we try drafting someone. I would hope to keep Grubbs but if we lose him we may be able to afford Hardwick and Steve Hutchinson which could be a stop gap for us to draft a C/G this year and the other next year.
