Final Verdict: Go with a sure thing in Brandon Marshall

The Ravens would be good with either player. We’re talking about two similar players, which would change the Ravens offense for the better. In the end I think the Ravens need to make the biggest splash and Marshall would do that. Marshall is everything the Ravens need. If Marshall can give the Ravens a couple of great seasons, think about how big his impact can be.

Pryor is an option. If the Ravens go with Pryor it’s not a bad idea. In the long-term it may be the better move. The problem with that though, is that the Ravens may not be able to retain Pryor down the road. If the Ravens sign Pryor and he balls out, he is going to get a huge pay-day next time he is a free agent. The Ravens should worry about right now. Marshall is the surest thing and the biggest game changer available.
