Carter and Hasty both were Shutdown corners.

Maybe, but there is no such thing anymore. Not with the NFL mandate that corners should play with their arms tied behind their backs.

Just think we could have Troy Vincent and Gary Baxter with Warfield as our nickelback.

Gary Baxter is AWFUL

William Bartee is BETTER than Baxter

Just my opinion

While I don't agree that Bartee is better, I will say that Baxter is not much of an upgrade. And that's saying something considering Maslowski has more career interceptions than Bartee.

Kawika freakin' Mitchell has more INT's than Bartee!

It's true that Bartee should have INTs by now. But if a CBs play were judged simply on INTs, Dexter McCleon would still be a good one. Bartee is bigger, faster and a better tackler than most CBs, and I think he's a decent and improving [not great] player. I expect a FA CB to be brought in this offseason to replace him as starter and relegate him to nickle. However, I don't think that player should be Baxter.

Gary Baxter is a poor CB on a great defense. If he played on our lousy defense he would be absolutely horrible, IMO. I was at the Balt-Tenn playoff game last January - my best friend is a big Ravens fan with season-tix etc. Baxter was woeful in that game. If it wasn't for Orlando Brown and his ridiculous personal fouls, Baxter would have been the biggest scapegoat in that game.

We need an upgrade at CB, but Baxter ain't it, IMO.

JMHO, of course.

I don't know. Baxter has had a lot of tax problems, to the point where the IRS confiscated his SUV off the Ravens' parking lot. They had a tape of it on Monday Night Football a while back.
