Beanie Bishop had a pick this week, but I am not sure if he counts.

Heard on yesterday’s broadcast that Rashod is 3rd in the NFL in yards per reception, which I didn’t know. That’s impressive, and a good sign that he’s developing into an impactful receiver just before his rookie deal is set to expire. I hope than means a lucrative extension for him, either in Baltimore or elsewhere.

Thanks for the update, I obviously didn’t know he’d signed an extension. Looks like he may have done it too soon, given the great season he’s had, but hard to turn down economic security when you can get it.
