WR Diontae Johnson to Ravens

Regardless of how either team ends the season, it won't be a one pick trade up due to comp picks.

We really had no leverage in this and it sucks.

  • He isn't under contract next season
  • We weren't going to extend him
  • He was in a position to demand more money than he's worth due to our poor overall roster structure
  • He wasn't exactly lighting the world on fire aside from the Oakland game
  • He's on tape giving up on numerous routes and refusing to block
  • Letting him walk in FA would NOT have resulted in a comp pick due to us needing to fill out the roster by signing a FA in the offseason. It would offset the comp pick formula.
  • Team is overall dogshit so there was no point in keeping him when we have young guys on the roster to try to develop in Legette and Coker.

I wanted more like everyone else but I get why that's the best offer we got.

Hard to believe the best offer we could get was a 5th rounder for a 6th rounder and Johnson... At that point, might as well just release him and let him go to whatever team he wants because we literally gained zero value from this trade.

And it's trades like this that make it easy to understand why we are and have been the worst team in the NFL for several years

There is no way you could ever convince me this was the best option.  Especially considering kirk and diggs just went down

People getting upset about this trade expected wayyyy too much. We had no leverage. What did yall expect?

honestly this should have been expected. 

I don't know... A trade that resulted in us getting more than 1 pick that is six spots better than what our 6th rounder would have been...

We honestly just need to nuke this entire franchise. Cut all the players, fire all the staff (from coach to coordinators to position coaches to medical staff to anyone else), and just completely start anew. We need to get the shitstains that are our players and coaches off this team.

Unfortunately our cuck owner can't fire himself, but the next best thing is just getting rid of literally everyone else, forfeit every game the next few years, and see if we can draft some winners with someone that hasn't been a part of this dumpster fire the past half decade

    • I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option s a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The patter it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.  
    • We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.     
    • Dude, I'm saying the Cardinals have proven they know nothing. Not saying keeping Bryce is the best choice long term, just saying that we've made the right move for this moment in time.  But man, the Cardinals are never a blueprint for success. Haven't been since they were in Chicago.
