Signings, Cuts, Trades

I didn't even know Hill tore his achilles. Damn. Tough break when he would have gotten a real chance.

 

[RavensMania]

if we don't sign another RB we may be moving Stephens back to RB. lol

 

[Simba]

True, but I don't see them going back into the well for a LG. They've drafted three players for that spot in the mid rounds the last three years. I can't see them going back to the well on that one, unless they just add more competition via mid-round players.
Finding depth at Tackle and potentially a starting Center are the two things I'd be watching for.

I don't disagree. Only way I see them hitting G again is if there's a stud, no doubter 1st round type sitting out there. Gotta trust what you have in house otherwise. Another mid round swing isn't likely to change anything there.

Not as a full time thing, but I do wonder if you could see Duvernay getting some backfield looks. Not necessarily as a runner but as a gadget type of option as a pass catcher.

Your boy Walter gave the Mark signing a C- lmao

 

[purplepittabread88]

Mark singing is big honestly didn’t see that coming this soon. He gets a good chance to stack up against Kelce and Waller right away too.

speaking of- how the fuck are we going to cover those guys?

 

[Davesta]

We're getting our guys signed while one of the Steelers' top players won't practice. Sucks to suck Hope he's still sitting out for our game.

brb.. let me tag watt in some of mark andrews extension post. Make him see how our organization is compares to his. Hopefully it makes him hold out.

Deshon Elliott, chuck clark, jimmy smith.

Deshon Elliott, chuck clark, jimmy smith.

If they actually line up as receivers in the slot, which they both do quite a bit, likely see Tavon or Marlon in coverage there also.

probably less likely to be chuck in man - they've been using elliott a ton in those spots this offseason and jimmy's like specifically designed for that job at this point in his career

Elliott was manned up in the box frequently this preseason, I don’t think it takes a slot alignment for that to happen, jimmy is probably a different story.

fair point about chuck

I’m thinking we’ll be able to contain Waller. Bowser/Jimmy can contain him. I’m not saying stop him but at least hold him in check

I don't expect Jimmy to play in this game either, FYI.

Injury?

 

[rmcjacket23]

Injury?

Yes. Hasn't practiced in like a month. Was widely discussed as a possible IR candidate at final cuts.
Even if he manages to return to practice today, which I don't think anybody is expecting, I'd still be surprised if he played Monday.

He and Derek Wolfe look like the two non-IR guys who will likely miss Monday's game with injuries. Sounds like Boyle may be questionable also, but he's been practicing as of late, so he may suit up.

 

[ravenslord]

So have we signed a running back?

 

[JoeyFlex5]

Even if we struggle with Waller I don’t see much else that can hurt us unless ruggs made a massive leap
