He has a good o line in front of him and good TEs, but I am far from sold on him.

I wonder if the Ravens believe it will take at least 2 years for Jackson to truly be good and lead a NFL team, so they are letting the older/expensive players go to get younger and sort of rebuild now to have the pieces ready for that run in 2020.

Perhaps.

Perhaps they think the defensive draft class this year is just that strong.

I heard one of the talking heads on NFLN say (or felay a scout said) the class was so deep and strong, that if the first 31 draft picks went defense, the Patriots would still be happy with the defensive player they took at 32.

If true, that's an amazing statement.  At least 32 defenders with a 1st round grade?!??!?
