Dareus - 1st Round Pick -
Are you from ESPN?I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

On the first day of free agency, the Ravens filled one of their longest-standing needs.
The Ravens and two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Derrick Mason agreed in principle to a multi-year deal Wednesday, giving Baltimore the big-play wideout it has lacked for years.
Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome announced the deal at a Wednesday afternoon press conference.
Although Mason has eight years of NFL experience under his belt, he is a relatively young 31 years old.
Mason was primarily a kick returner for the first three years of his career, but since joining the Titans’ starting lineup in 2000, his production increased in each of the last five seasons.
He caught 63 passes in 2000, 73 in 2001, 79 in 2002, 95 in 2003 and 96 last year. More importantly, Mason has averaged 13.5 yards per catch throughout his career and has 37 touchdown receptions.
Furthermore, the Ravens believe Mason’s presence in the locker room is important as his production on the field. The team has a group of talented but relatively inexperienced receivers, and Baltimore thinks Mason can help them develop.Comment

Couldn't agree more. Mason is a very underrated WR. He is a consistant WR despite McNair moving in and out of the lineup. This is 1 of the few weaknesses the Ravens have and defintely the biggest hole. Depending on the price I think it was a good move.Originally posted by STAMPYDareus - 1st Round PickComment

Welcome!
Word of advise: Don't talk to Mr. Miyagi. He is known to try to lure you to his car with promises of candy and funny stories.
You think you're hot **** in a champagne glass, but you're really cold diarrhea in a Dixie cup!Comment
