DROP IT NOW COWARD. I will gut you with a spoon

I’m bringing a spork to this melee.

 

[QtR Nevermore]

Hopefully a whole new coaching staff means no more of the bullshit coaching input on day 3. Too much room for personal bias and ego to get in the way when your positional coaches have a hand in pushing the GM to draft certain players, it has not yielded good results

You don't want us drafting Mrs Minter's favorite player in the 5th this year? Disrespectful!

 

[Simba]

They're getting ridiculously overpaid though. Some of them are fine players. Fine. They're being paid as good or great players

As is every other FA out there for the most part. That’s just how FA works

 

[RavensMania]

have any of the details on john simpson's deal come out yet?

I haven't seen it, but I did see that Huntleys is a 5 yr deal with the ability to get to 11m over 2 years.

Supply and demand. Eggs were $6 a dozen last year, people still bought them. lol

 

[Davesta]

Should’ve fired EDC the same time as Harbaugh.

No yeah that’s exactly what I want the GM of my football to do

 

[JoeyFlex5]

Feels like a lot of people think every player we draft needs to be a bonafide starter or star or it's a fail. Role players are good things to have. And sometimes you have to know who is a role player and let them walk when they're getting more than role player money. I'm not paying any of the guys we lost on multi-year deals to the money they got.

I’d have paid likely what he got all day.

 

[All_black_everything]

It's sounding like the offers he's gotten to this point have been sub-$30M and I have to imagine if they were willing to pay $22M for Linderbaum, they'd be open to a bit more for another pass rusher. I would guess someone is going to pay up and it's not going to be the Ravens, but doesn't mean they won't keep the option open.

Interesting. I can see Tennessee out bidding us but not sure if he’d want to go lose there.

This would be an intriguing move if it were to happen.

not saying they're amazing players but we've definitely been picking good prospects in day 3 anyway (where most of what's there sucks) - lots of good bets as we saw with the mass exodus of guys this year from the 2022 class

2023: 4 day 3 picks netted us - Tavius Robinson (solid rotational EDGE) and Andrew Vorhees (replacement level guard)
2024: 6 day 3 picks netted us - Tez Walker, TJ Tampa and Rasheen Ali - no starters there, but depth guys with traits and roles on their units
2025: 8 day 3 picks netted us already - Teddye Buchanan (starting LB) - as well as a bunch of other promising rookies or guys who had year 1 roles and have a chance to become hits: Carson Vinson (potential swing tackle), Bilhal Kone (good looking CB pre-injury), Tyler Loop (eek), LaJohntay Wester (promising punt returner), Aeneas Peebles (promising DT)

none of those classes compare to the 2022 day 3 that we've just watched leave:
Isaiah Likely
Charlie Kolar
Jordan Stout
Daniel Faalele (we hate him but he was a 2 year starter)

but also all those guys were 4th rounders

You wanted to give Jenkins $12M a year and $20M guaranteed?

 

[JO_75]

He was released from Green Bay with a failed physical designation. Good luck Cleveland if he stays healthy at that price tag.

Sometimes you gotta risk it to get the biscuit.

Or you’ll end up with John Simpsons.

 

[Davesta]

time to get the biscuit.

 

[All_black_everything]

Sounds like we were interested

 

[Tank]

For me, Charlie is low key one of the worst of the losses. He’s consistently on the upswing and plays like his hair is on fire. Definitely a Raven.

 

[Deebo813]

Could you imagine Hendrickson on one side and Crosby on the other !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who you gonna block ?

We would go from one of the worst pass rushes to the best.

We got crosby and green already

 

[Rusfan]

We got crosby and green already

I love Green’s potential but I don’t want to just rely on a potential breakout with no backup plan

 

[Tank]

We got crosby and green already

Can either of them hike, punt or kick FGs?

 

[SepticeyePoe]

Can either of them hike, punt or kick FGs?

I hear Crosby used to be a good kicker
