Perhaps the best playmaker in this draft class, Brown will bring elite run after the catch ability to Baltimore. He has some size and durability concerns, yet his upside is immense. Eric DeCosta’s first pick as general manager fills the most pressing need on the roster with the top wideout in the class. - Vasilis LericosEric DeCosta chose to trade back with his old buddy Eagles GM Howie Roseman for the second consecutive year in the first round. At pick 25, Hollywood Brown gives the Ravens their one missing link in the receiver room. He can beat the press and take the top off the defense, and no other current receiver on the roster can do either of those consistently. Brown can be compared to a young Desean Jackson. Coming off an injury Youth Trace McSorley Jersey , hopefully he’s ready to go sooner rather than later. Brown is from the same area as Lamar Jackson, which should help them build great chemistry.- Spencer SchultzThe track team is coming together. Brown is a home run hitter with comparisons to Desean Jackson and should in fit well with Lamar Jackson. A trade back into this scenario was ideal,and I have to say I’m very impressed with Eric DeCosta’s initial first round as the Ravens GM. - Jake LouqueMarquise Brown wouldn’t have been my first choice at wideout, but he’ll definitely bring much needed speed and big play ability to the Ravens offense. Brown can consistently beat press coverage and separate from defenders, which can’t be said for almost all receivers on the roster currently. He’s also an underrated route-runner. Overall, solid value after trading back three spots to address a glaring need at wide receiver. - Frank J. PlatkoEric DeCosta looks to change the Ravens history of drafting poor receivers. With no true WR1 on the team White Brandon Williams Jersey , Marquise Brown has the opportunity to make a splash out the gate and help Lamar Jackson in his sophomore campaign. Grabbing arguably the draft’s best receiver at 25 is a huge value, given it is the latest the position has come off the board in NFL history.-Sage MoranderBrown is a high risk, high reward pick. With blazing 4.3 speed and an elite run-after-the-catch ability, “Hollywood” is a legit game-breaking threat who could take it to the house on any given play. The biggest concern for Brown is his size (166 pounds) and recent Lisfranc injury. DeCosta chose to supply his young quarterback Lamar Jackson with a potentially dangerous weapon, and Ravens fans should be happy about that. - Dustin CoxSelecting a wide receiver or offensive lineman in the first round was the ideal move. DeCosta also mentioned they traded down with the hopes of Brown still being on the board at 25. While they liked him enough at 22, the Ravens brilliantly acquired extra picks while still getting their guy in the process. As for Brown Marquise Brown Baltimore Ravens Jersey , I’m excited to see Hollywood break the curse of receivers not panning out in Baltimore. His speed, hands and playmaking ability should be exciting to watch for years to come. - Kyle Barber The Ravens are currently facing the very real possibility of losing one of their best players, linebacker C.J. Mosley, to another team as unrestricted free agency is unofficially open.

Mosley Cheap Marquise Brown Jersey , to another team as unrestricted free agency is unofficially open. According to reports, they may even already be looking to line up a replacement as they’re one of five teams showing interest in former Bronco backer Brandon Marshall:The 29-year old would certainly be a downgrade from Mosley, but that doesn’t mean this signing wouldn’t make a whole lot of sense. PFF sees him as about an average player overall with grades of 55.9 against the run and 67.1 against the pass (64.2 total).He doesn’t appear to be an impact player at this point but rather a solid veteran who could prove to be a good fit if the money is right, a-la Daryl Smith. He would also take over as the de-facto leader of what would be a relatively young inside linebacker room if Mosley departs; Patrick Onwuasor becomes the old head at a grizzled 26 years of age.Marshall recently appeared in NFL Network, and in a segment where he and Willie McGinest predicted top free agent destinations, Marshall mocked Le’Veon Bell to the Ravens. Ironically Marquise Brown Baltimore Ravens Jersey , he may end up in Baltimore himself, something McGinest actually joked to him during the spot.With four other teams in the mix, Marshall may be somewhat tough to land, especially considering the market for middle linebackers. At the right cost though, he may just be the classic Ravens-type move that this defense needs in a transitional period.
