Camp won't be picnic

Sounds great!!!!

can't wait to see the improuvement of this team!!!!

My only concern right now is the lack of depht at the TE position... Hope we find someone solid with the first wave of cut...

we're loaded at the other positions, and hope we can build around somethin' special...

really like the new O-Line, sure they are going to open some eyes quickly! and some holes too!

smith or flacco, i'm ok with that and i'm sure cameron is ok too!

and if the big D stay healthy, maybe we can develop into a good football team!

Go ravens GO!!!!

Change is good !!

Don't worry about tight end , I'm going to send them Scott Mitchell to back up Heap and Flacco , I won super bowl you know.

You know.....you may think you're funny, but all you're doing is dishonoring the memory of the good things Coach Billick DID do. Making a mockery of him doesn't make you look funny or cool.....it just seems kind of sad, for a coach that may not have been the most popular, but still worked his ass off for this team, and brought it a lot of success throughout the years, to go with the disapointments.

But as for this articles predictions:

Flacco will not win the starting job. I still maintain that unless severe injuries occur (which let's pray they don't), he won't even play this season at all.

If Gaither can pull it together, it is likely that our offensive line WILL impress early. As stated, Grubbs, Brown, and Yanda are young guys who could anchor this offense for years. Gaither COULD be the next J.O., in some ways at least, if he gets serious and starts giving this team his all. As for the right side...who knows? Maybe Oneil Cousins will be a starter by the time the season starts?

And yes, I would wager "Camp Harbaugh" will be a hit, and even a success. Let's just hope that the players make it through without injuries to speak of.

Yea you were the coach that won the ravens a super bowl, but really though it was Marvin Lewis who deserves the credit because he mastered one of the best defenses in the NFL that year. But don't feel left out, you won't be the only coach in Baltimore that already has a super bowl ring. Im pretty sure Harbaugh will be the second to earn a ring.

I don't think I've ever seen a Sun reporter so optimistic before in his predictions. I really hope you're right, Mr. Hensley.

Its about time.

I've been going to Eagles and Colts/Ravens camps for over 30 yrs and the past ten they have been VERY different.

Virtually NO long periods of intense hitting or simulated game-like situations longer then 20 minutes - then 10 minute break - ALL day. This was the Ravens under Billick. No Oklahomas or other hard-core hitting drills either.

Eagles camps up in Lehigh on other hand tends to be brutal, often with 3 day LONG sessions 4-5 wks into camp. And amazingly, they suffer few injuries in camps as well.

I am just glad to see the Ravens get an Andy Reid disciple in Harbaugh who will WORK these guys hard, regardless of celebrity or veteran status. A new dawn is approaching and it is welcome.

Hensley has never been right about anything....From His Boller Hype To his weekly monotone wrong predictions...what would possibly make you think he's right about anything.

Maybe now the Ravens won't look like their several weeks behind other teams at the beginning of the season.

By the way, where's Mike? Did the Sun fire Mike Preston?

I hope they fired Preston he missed the boat a lot like wvterp and that group bird.

If Michigan J. Frog was a quarterback, his name would be Kyle Boller. Every time he leads the Ravens into the red zone, they fold. His days with the team are numbered unless he can solve this problem. As is, the Ravens will likely start Troy Smith, with Joe Flacco backing him up. Let the preseason camp begin!

I love the changes.

Go Ravens!

FARVE for 1 year to put up points this year. Best chance to get in playoffs this year and future years so Flaccolearns from best.

I can't wait until the season begins.

I think we finaly have a real QB. No offense Kyle.

Willie Lewis - Favre is NOT coming here bubba!

There are several other close opps that he'd likely land on rather then Baltimore. He also will likely opt to stay in NFC as he knows the conference better, having played 90% of his games vs it.

Here Favre would NOT have a west coast offense that he's accustomed to as well as not even avg WRs. Add to this a rebuilt line and Baltimore (no matter how good its Defense) would not be great fit for the guy.

Let's just give Smith a shot while grooming Flacco. Boller will come in if Smith tanks but Flacco should see little time this yr as he understands the complexities of O-scheme as well as Def alignments...this is a BIG jump from 1-AA.

Good luck, guys!

Here's to improvement.
