The Ravens can’t be this dumb? They’re a smart organization right?

That doesn't mean they want talk to him to find out if that is set in stone. 

They'd still have to offer a contract that he would agree to.

You can say that maybe they'd offer him a lesser contract than what's been advertised, but if they did why wouldn't the Ravens just match it?

I don't really see this going anywhere.

The cost. The falcons have a lot of holes on their roster and they might believe QB isn’t one of them. 

Their roster is barren. Stacking it with overpriced free agents coming to town for a payday, and not to win, won't matter without a quarterback.

They'll have to learn the hard way.

Never said they would offer a contract.  I just think they will reach out to see what he's really looking for.  Tepper wants a franchise qb and one just became available.  They are ready to do whatever it takes to get one. I would not dismiss the possibility they consider see what his asking price at least.

It set a precedent of guaranteed salary in literal terms, but it did not necessarily set an expectation of a guaranteed salary if you get what I'm saying.

Also, remember that was four years ago, and even with all the hoopla, his cap hit for 2018 was 12.6% (and 2019, 15.1% and 2020 10.6%). 

So yeah it was kinda the same, but still very different. The NFL is afraid that an LJ contract will actually set a trend, particularly with several high-level QBs coming up, not to mention Mahomes' re-upping.

I think people don't like Kirk Cousins so they don't want to mention that he actually started it.

I was reading something yesterday that said the Falcons have high hopes for Ridder.  It may be true or not (don't remember the source), but if there is any truth to it, they will continue to build the rest of the team and give him a chance for a year or two.

      Our Next QB: The Qualifiers

      By CRA · Posted

      I mean, sure, he has made a mess of the football situation with his hires.   I'm just saying, he is often overused to take the blame of others who ALSO are bad at their jobs.    We see that often.  Not just with Tepper.  I mean, how many people did we scapegoat and try to give all the blame to before we admitted Matt Rhule was bad at his job.  Same for Fitterer.  Tepper's other pro team has gone to the postseason in back to back years now.  Think they set a MLS record this year too.  And they have barely existed.   Tepper is not crafting the roster and shaping the team.  Others do that for him.   The QB room is the way it is because of the big picture hires of David Tepper.  But on a practical football level discussion about why we suck at the QB spot and going forward, we got to talk about Dan Morgan.  He is the dude doing the bad job there.  I'm not trying to deflect any blame from Tepper.  I just can't stand how Dan Morgan gets the pass he gets from some and the narrative......Tepper is calling the QB room, and this weird Morgan mantra that he somehow is silently against everything he part of building (not saying that is you but it exists here)  I think with a good staff and QB,  no one would care about David Tepper.  I think Tepper has now limited his ability to get the good staff in the front office and sidelines.   In hindsight, the Matt Rhule hire.....might go down as the biggest error in Panther history.  Because it's all a snowball from that bad hire.
