Pretty sure the wrs are gone. Would love to bring back Jimmy at a team friendly deal. No idea where Peters' head is contract wise but would like him back as well. Ward would be good for depth and shouldn't be too expensive. Would like Levine back as well due to his role. Would like Judon back, but the truth is I think he's gone for a payday and he deserves it. Just dont think we should break the bank for him. Would try to bring back McPhee if he'd take a similar deal. Its funny the difference a year makes. Where last year it felt people were hesitant to come, I think Baltimore might be an attractive FA destination.

Pretty sure Pierce and Peanut are gone. Don't we still have Board on IR?

you mean alaka? Board never went to IR. He's just sucked.

Board is on active roster, plays a lot on special teams.

Its easy to miss but in his 3rd game Ward has added some much needed interior pass rush and is outsnapping Williams and Wormley.

I think the FO see pierce as the new better version of B-Will and will let go of b-will.

and they should if it's between those two. Besides B-will wont be here post 2021 anyway so might as well cut him next year and take the dead money.

We really keeping B-Will next year though? Can't we cut him? isnt his contract up at 2021 ?

B-Will can be cut but we would only save 4.3m and quite frankly we should keep him for that price. We can consider letting him go at the end of the 20-21 season, when his contract is up.

Pierce is the more dynamic player but we've seen what happens when BWill is out. Pierce might need another year next to him before hes ready to take over as our anchor.

Nah I think Pierce is gone. I don't think Pierce coming into ota's over weight help his chances for The Ravens to re-signing him as well. I kind of expect The Ravens to atleast ask Brandon Williams to take a pay cut in the future but he's really a guy The Ravens like to keep around especially to be a mentor to Daylon Mack and etc.

i mean LJ Fort is 29...

Yeah but Fort is much faster than Bynes and look upon as being more capable to handing himself in passing situations . In today's league teams aren't really in favor of having a guy like Josh Bynes as their starting inside linebacker due to it being a passing league.

bynes is playing a different position though - not saying we have to retain him but his impact as the mike has been huge and if we dont retain him then we need to go shopping or drafting for a MLB regardless of whether peanut stays or not
 
For what its worth bynes has been playing at an elite level ( PFF grades n all) since he got here.

It's obvious that ILB will be prioritized int he draft and it would not shock me one bit if that's where our number 1 pick will be at.

Sarah Ellison is really missed on br.com - I just find eisenberg really boring - like he never says anything insightful or new, Clifton Brown is interesting sometimes but he basically replaced Sarah... really glad she’s fairly regularly appearing on the filmstudy podcast

Anyone else ever notice every time he asks a question during Harbaugh presser John is always such a dick back to him like why are you asking dumb questions but he is never like that with anyone else lol
 
What is your thought about this? I think Lamar Jackson, as an athlete, has the elusiveness that we haven't seen since Barry Sanders retired.
 
Here is a bit of the contract details on the LJ Fort extension

@RapSheet
3m3 minutes ago

The #Ravens have signed LB LJ Fort to a 2-year, surprise extension through 2021 that pays him $5.5M, source said. He gets $3.25M fully guaranteed at signing -- all next year. He was cut 5 weeks ago by the #Eagles and still has $1.9M in guarantees this year. An early payday

ET, LJ and Hollywood are all listed as questionnable and are expected to play vs. the Bengals.

im a little worried about hollywood given that he was such a late addition to the injury report but looks like chris moore is the only person on the injury report who reasonably might have a problem being ready for sunday
