I would not be opposed to taking Boutte with the Ravens' pick. He had a terrible start to the year both on and off the field, but played well in the final 8 games or so. I don't know enough to comment on what was behind him announcing his return for Sr. year and then changing his mind to enter the draft. Red flag for sure, but I'm sure it will be investigated by almost every club. But from a pure football perspective, he is more than worthy of that pick

Sandborn can't fill a hole like Mike Oxlong and he totally destroys tight ends looking to hook up for a quick hitter.
Sandborn can only dream of reaching around Oxlongs talent.

He deserves the chance to least have to get beaten out for the job. Hope he does.

He earned a spot b this team next season and earned for the right to keep his starting job he had. Hopefully, it will be tested by new stiff competition for his spot.

I like Zay Flowers more, it’s because I don’t trust Boutte’s hands…

I'm less worried about Sanborn than I am about guys like Matt Adams, Nick Morrow, Joe Thomas, and Sterling Weatherford when it comes to speculating next year's depth chart. Has to be better depth when it comes to the latter four, so buy and draft a couple and cut those bums.

YES. Not sure how high his ceiling is tho. Solid player for sure. If we got 3 guys that can beat him out then we are sitting nice.

Yes and he'd be fine moving to Will if that's how the personnel fall.

Lol at people questioning GOATBorn
Seriously though, someone will have to beat him out. Hard to imagine he doesn’t start at 1 of the LB spots

Him and some others ran a train on someone employed by the university. Apparently was 100% consensual

Boutte's hands are questionable, I think his concentration drops can be corrected, my bigger concern is his drops in contested catch situations. He's big and strong enough that he has to do a better job there. Flowers also suffers from concentration drops, mostly because like Boutte, he's looking for YAC. The biggest concern I have with Flowers is his small stature. I think he's listed as 5'10" or 11" but people are saying he's probably closer to 5'9"

He better start or I won't be able to call him the "COCAINE BEAR" anymore. He attacks offenses like the bear in COCAINE BEAR attacks people. Long live the COCAINE BEAR.

Honestly, if it was 100% consensual, I don't see it as a problem for NFL teams. Not to make light of the situation, but I'm pretty sure he isn't the first football player involved in kinky-consensual sex acts. My understanding is that It also involved members of the coaching and recruiting staff. I'm just not sure that is the reason he changed his mind and entered the draft. Some have speculated that Kelly suspended him from their bowl game, and that is what caused Boutte's change of heart; but how can you suspend the player, but allow the coaches to coach? Boutte was looked at as a top-10 pick entering the year with good reason, I think he would be good value if you get him in the late middle of the second round

Wasn’t he close to leading the league in tackles during his time as a starter?

Yes, average of around 10 solo in each game he started after the trade.
