It's funny that he went from a pro bowl caliber rb to a journeyman playing for 4 teams in 5 years after Pittsburgh.

He's on the Mount Rushmore of NFL players that sabotaged their own careers.
I could see him continuously trying to play the victim card for the next 20 years. He’s the type that would make bogus heresay claims just to keep his name relevant.

Just a side note here...

I think its pretty cool that both Ozzie Newsome & Kevin Colbert retired after drafting a potential franchise QB. Whether Pickett works out or not, it's a heck of a way to call it a career as GM.

Him n hollywood r best friends. Off the field
I thought it was very strange that the Ravens cut Boykin before the draft, then traded away Marquise Brown and didn't even draft a WR. I know they are dedicated to the run game, but damn. 11 picks and not a single WR?

1 - S Hamilton
1 - C Linderbaum
2 - OLB Ojabo
3 - DT Jones
4 - OT Faalele
4 - CB Armour-Davis
4 - TE Kolar
4 - P Stout
4 - TE Likely
4 - CB Houston
6 - RB Badie

Ravens' WRs: Rashod Bateman, James Proche, Devin Duvernay, Tylan Wallace, Jaylon Moore, Victor Binjimen

They have got to be a big player this month in FA... Jarvis Landry, OBJ, Julio, TY Hilton, Sanders, Fuller, etc.

I think it's cool the Steelers drafted Pickett. And Heyward's gotta be happy they drafted his little brother.

4th set of brothers on the team now... Watt (TJ & Derek), Edmunds (Terrell & Trey), Davis (Carlos & Khalil), and now Heyward.

Everyone in the FF world is saying Bateman's value is sky-high but I'm thinking the opposite... At least for now. He may be the only 'rosterable' receiver in BAL, but that is far from a good thing on a run-first offense.

He's good but if he's the only option... That drastically reduces his impact regardless

Really looking forward to the first time Pickens faces off against Marcus Peters... You just know that fists are gonna fly at some point

NFL needs that to be mic'd up too... Probably will be 95% censored but still...

If he can still play I'm all for it. Didn't want him to leave the first time.
He's still serviceable but last year he looked pretty bad compared to previous years. He looked cooked down the stretch. If he's pressed into limited snaps then I think he could still be very useful.
