i wouldnt say his blocking is great but he's not useless...
@Edgar did a good review of some of his play in 2018 and it demonstrated some nice blocking/manipulation of defenders in the run game
Schefter: One NFL coach on Nick Boyle, who is re-signing with Baltimore instead of becoming a free agent next week: “Would have been the best TE to hit free agency in the last three years.”

Happy to extend him. He was the guy I wanted back anyway.
DAMN... 3 years 18. Whatever. Hope he just stays healthy and PED free... or doesn't get caught.

I wonder if this deal raises the value of Maxx on the open market. Takes one TE off the market and gives a baseline value for a good, not great, TE

Oh ffs . Let's just have a Nick Boyle goal line fade based offense. I'd rather have a press conference for any other re-signing than Nick Boyle. At least Buck Allen would be funny. We had to keep one of them I guess.

We must think TE's are critical in a Lamar Jackson offense because 6 million/year for Boyle seems pretty high when you have
Andrews and Hurst. Granted Boyle is an superb blocker. Boyle has also been suspended before for PED's as well.

For context, since everyone is saying Boyle was overpaid:
Jermaine Gresham 7 million
Cameron Brate 6.8 million
Vance McDonald 6.5 million
Jack Doyle 6.3 million
Vernon Davis 5 million
Rhett Ellison 4.5 million
I would definitely put him in this group of TEs.

i'd say brate is probably underpaid in that group and gresham is way overpaid

If we give Skura a big contract than that “fuck Eric Decosta thread” is going to turn into a “fire Eric Decosta” thread.

Interesting stat per Jamison Hensley
A key stat when looking at re-signing of Nick Boyle: Ravens lined up with two or more tight ends on 1,044 snaps the past two seasons. That's 199 more than any other team in the NFL.

Boyle is a great blocker. He "plays like a Raven". No question about that. He works as an inline blocker, a lead blocking fullback, a motion and pull/trap blocker, a wing to protect in pass pro. More than that; he is very often asked to take a teams best edge rusher one on one in pass protection...right off the line.
I am a little unclear why he asked is tasked with this so often. It isn't infrequent to see Orlando in combination " helping" Yanda without a look to the outside while Boyle is one on one with whoever is wide.
in any case, he is versatile and tough and has good hands and is at least serviceable leaking out.
