They had a heap of injuries to key guys. They still have a good roster and have a strong recent history of being a good-great football team. They have one of the best GM and HC combos in the league.

Nowhere close to an "lol" decision.

 

 

 

they are going to be trash next year too

I think like 6 of their best players were on IR last year. It was an anamoly. They have a really talented roster and a great HC.

Yes. Ozzie Newsome knows this and that is why he's going for it now. Signing 31 year old Weddle and 35 year old Ben Watson. Possibly even Mike Wallace as well.

So much for wanting to stay on the West Coast too. Oh well, guess if he wants to wait a few yrs for that ring, go for it, we'll roll with our guys. Raji retiring at 29, that is sort of shocking. Best of Luck to him.

 

He is a big man that has taken a lot of beating, realizing he was looking at close to vet minimum he made the smart move.

Weddle aside, the Ravens are not good. They are the definition of an 8-8 team when healthy, which is what I pegged them for last year. They just have a complete dearth of talent at the skill positions for players that aren't hurt, and their defense isn't good enough to compensate anymore. On the injury front, Smith's Achilles is no joke, and Flacco's late ACL/MCL tear isn't going to have him healthy going into camp, no matter what he says. Is Perriman ever going to play? Who else is there? Justin Forsett? Crockett Gillmore? Kamar Aiken? Meh. It's still early, but I'd be surprised if they were relevant next year.

 

Weddle wanted money. He got money. But let's not pretend the Ravens are remotely good.

Congrats Weddle on getting paid for your last contract.  Too bad it wasn't for a contender like you stated.  But $$$ talks and BS walks.  Not upset at all by this, would I have liked to see him in the Black and Blue sure but am I happy we didn't over pay for a 31 year old safety. absolutely.

      Lol Atlanta looks to have lost their young edge rusher, has no 1st round pick, a complete mess at QB, a new coaching staff… And we swept them this year. Says what they think of us.

      PFF Best Deep Ball Thrower Award

      I mean, you can only go so far with the propping up. When a guy's numbers are as bad overall as Bryce's you have to try to find specific niches to sell. It's just funny that they're honing in on where he's probably weakest to try to prop him up. Whether it's a pro-Bryce conspiracy or not, it echos my chief complaint about PFF's analysis for years. When your purely statistical analysis badly skews from the eye test of actually watching the games, it should be screaming at you that you need to modify your system not double down on it. PFF is awesome at compiling stats but their grade systems are highly flawed and they never seem to try to improve them.

      Then why is Byce also last in other PFF stats?  The deep ball thrower stat by PFF can simply be flawed vs some conspiracy trying to prop up a QB on a team that a former employee now works for.  Both of these guys were also hired AFTER the Panthers had already drafted Bryce.  Trying to prop him up with a made up stat while he struggled would be a detriment to their own team honestly.
