Worth noting that Mosley played over 500 snaps in coverage, the third most of any linebacker.
Did anyone get a chance to read truths article on Zach Orr prior to the season. He gave an in-depth review of him using all 22 film for everyone to see for them self.

The only people who read it are those who can handle the @Truth
But for real- Orr allowed over 600 yards in coverage and the second most by a linebacker in all of football, so I'd hardly call him a sure thing in coverage.
And our yards per carry was higher when he was in the game

I know we don't often pursue high profile FAs, but I think we need to pull out all the stops and get Landry. We have multiple needs but no needs more desperate than offensive weapons.
Even if you believe we can break the trend of drafting marginal to bust WRs it is unreasonable to think that we can draft anyone that can be a #1 WR in their rookie year.
While Collins is nice if we can get a big time play maker at that position that would be fine but we should still go after a WR in round 2.

Rather have Allen Robinson
Cutting Maclin saves us 5m. Really easy contract to get out of.

Not concerned with his injury? Do you say that because Landry plays usually out of the slot and we need a true outside WR?
Yes and I’m not overly concerned with his injury. Players Typically come back stronger after acl injuries. Of course they will get the medical records on Robinson if they are going to make him an offer.
Allen Robinson would be a complete perfect fit with this team and makes so much sense, so no chance it will happen. Real talk though, Robinson Chris Moore, and a high (not first found) draft pick would be a really positive core

I think we're looking at a post-June 1 designation for Carr which would save 6M. Humphreys played good enough and with Canady and Tavon coming back, I think that money is better spent elsewhere. Those two moves virtually double our cap space but even so, we're operating on a very limited budget.
wait dont we have an option on carr though - surely we wouldnt need the post-june 1 cut because we could just option out... or am i misunderstanding the way his contract is constructed
i also am not sure we are cutting carr - jimmy smith might not be back in time to start the year given how late in the season his injury occurred, tavon's coming off an injury, hill will be likely late to training camp if he is even back before the season begins
if we cut carr then we are left with canady and humphrey as guaranteed healthy corners and likely tavon as well - 3 healthy corners is not enough to start the season
His cap number in 18 is 7m. If we cut him we save 4m with 3m being dead money. No need for post 1. This was an easy contract to get out of with each yr having a team friendly option. Post June 1 we’d save 5.5m

Ravens signed QB Josh Woodrum, RB John Crockett, FB Ricky Ortiz and OT Steven Moore to reserve/future contracts.
Yes it’s much easier to get out of. No need for June 1
Agree, not sure we cut Carr.

I think Maclin and Carr get cut and we get Allen Robinson I also think we resign Mike Wallace I know some people aren’t high on that but I think he really wants to come back after listening to his interview today he may come at a discount after he said he isn’t worried about the money and I think he’s become pretty good this season he made a ton of plays for us this year and I think he’d be a solid #2 behind someone like Robinson and chris and or camp in the slot
