https://www.theringer.com/nfl/2019/...backs-salary-cap-kirk-cousins-patrick-mahomes Rising league revenues have pushed the salary cap from $123 million in 2013 to $177 million this season, giving teams more freedom. “There’s just a lot more flexibility,” Chiefs general manager Brett Veach told...

There are 32 starting QBs at any time. Only about 12 of them can be considered having a passing grade. So there are about 20 QBs who are average to below-average. That’s a brutal curve. That reality or grading scale of QBs is wildly disproportionate, especially when they are all getting...

Our defense is strong because we're able to afford them, not let them go, too. If you keep hacking away at your defensive roster so you can afford that $25m a year QB, which are rare to come by, then your D will suffer. Seems easier to invest on multiple defensive players and get by on offense...

Wave of the future. Teams are aligning their super bowl windows around rookie quarterback contracts..... Cousins getting $30m, Case Keenum, even backups like Mike Glennon. Derek Carr prohibiting the Raiders from re-signing Mack. Etc. There are many examples of NFL clubs forced into shelling...

The Ravens front office is well-known around the league as being one of the smartest. Unlike other teams who extend their HCs and star players BEFORE they do something of merit, the Ravens have generally always dangled the carrot in front of them -- prove you deserve it kind of thing. It's...

Smoke and fire?

Mike Florio of PFT keeps speculating Miami are interested in trading for John Harbaugh once our season ends.

Arians would be a great fit in Tampa. Winston, Evans, vertical passing offense that he'd bring.

It's cool about the GTFOH....i didnt take it at me....but even if it was, I'm cool with it....thick-skinned, it's all fine. Anyway, I know it was more as a general exclamation. But...as per small school history....the Raiders do have a history of drafting small school players. Especially in...

Here's something for you.... in 2009 The Saints finished 13-3. The three losses were to the Bucs, Cowboys, and Panthers. They beat the Colts in the Super Bowl. in 2018 The Saints finished 13-3. The three losses were to the Bucs, Cowboys, and Panthers. A Super Bowl against the Colts again? Hmmm.

Colts 45 Texans 42 -- kind of like the Chiefs-Rams game, both defenses are good but just the game gets opened up from the onset and continues that way, two heavyweights just throwing the gloves off to hell with it and going all out. Seahawks 20 Cowboys 17 -- Defensive battle looming, but I...

He's a good scout. But he has zero front office experience. Also he may just be more of an advisor to Gruden, who still has all the power carte blanche. My jury is out on this hire, tho Mayock is a highly respected scout.

Mike Mayock new Raiders GM....deal being finalized, announcement forthcoming.

I am sure the stats for Rivers last week would be similar too.

Is Eric DeCosta the next GM for sure?

wow.....how great would that be.....

This is very true. I actually think we'll win it (or go very close to) this season (fingers crossed vs Browns first of course). There's a sense of "destiny" with this current situation we're in, and the two times we won it there was a similar sense of "destiny" around us. Touch wood. But yeah...

So, we could have about $58m in space with flacco, suggs, brown released ? if I'm reading it right, and perhaps a little more with other moves of fringe players.

Here's a great site that details contracts/caps....can potentially work out what we do to free up space.... https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/baltimore-ravens/cap/2019/
