Heard a clip on the radio this morning of Smitty holding a interview with either Schefter or Raapaport... guy asked him about being retired and his answer was:

" I don't know if I'm going to stay retired ... I've never been retired before".

I would give my left nu... kidney if 89 put the black n blue back on. Not so sure that Getty is up for this.

Wouldn't take that too seriously. Sounds like just an off the cuff comment.

Regardless, I believe he was still under contract with the Ravens, so they'd retain his rights.


This, unfortunately.

He could come back in 2018 I believe

I can see Smith coming back to play... I read somewhere he is like 45 receptions away from going like 17th in history to top ten.  Plus, to many times players "retire" to then get the back and come back. Of course plenty don't.  I would even think he maybe joins a team towards the end of camp when one needs a WR or even sometime during the season when a contender is looking to maybe add a wr... escp if he could be him.

He is still technically a Raven until March but I assume he'd be an FA if he came back after the start of the 2017 league year since his contract ended this year.

Agreed though that he isn't coming back.

      I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
