You might have to bear with me during this article whilst I delve into the dangerous realms of searching too hard for reasons to be optimistic, but I wanted to share with you something I came across this weekend that got me thinking.
Whilst searching for something to pass the time before the draft finally arrives on Thursday, I came across a Bleacher Report article from the end of March 2012 which summarized the Ravens’ offseason moves to that point. It sparked my curiosity enough for me to read it, and I couldn’t help but start spotting glaring comparisons to this year’s offseason moves.
