adam schfter is now saying the Ravens are in line for a 3rd compensatory pick if Johnson walks.  Which I guess makes sense and is the cherry on top for this poo trade

Yeah they can get a 6th or 7th but that’s irrelevant to us. We are adding a bunch of players in FA to help this sad roster so we weren’t getting a comp pick.

Where you see that? We need draft picks and a QB, assuming we roll with some journeyman at 15-20 next year we will have 20-25M in cap to spend. 

I could be reading it wrong but it looks like we are bottom half on cap space as of today.  Sure some things can be moved but I doubt we want to start giving out long term high end deals.  At least I hope so.  Just ride this out until 26 and then things completely open up

I'd say it's legit, point being that we weren't going to get any great offers.

Likely the whole league sees us as a poverty franchise, and they treat us accordingly.

Or they know Diontae is a headache and not worth giving up anything of real value

we had teams on the hook 3 weeks ago per j jones.  You think there was a worse offer on the table?  Dude this is totally being leaked by the panthers as evidenced of media members and players saying he wasnt a problem

 

this is classic CYA by the team.  If you think a swap of a 5th and a 6th is the best offer then I am not even sure what to tell you all things considered.  Hopkins is 3 years older and injury prone, D adams has been known to be a malcontent and yet..................

Word was out. Left behind on a road trip, after the previous week that everyone saw. And fwiw Diontae caused that by acting out. Talking his talk. 

Looked like if they had to they would have cut him outright. And if you are releasing a player you are saying he has no value to you. 

edit: it's on him, the low return. He put things out there. On the field, in the postgame comments. I bet that lil act cost him some money when he wants that next deal.

      Which would be 8-8-1. An improvement.

      Not sure who you are talking to. Everybody maybe? Anyhow the family cat woke me up so….  Saturday, I will be in the playoff frame of mind for that game don’t worry about that. Will be living and dying on each play. Pretty sure everyone will be. That is still a few days away though.  Right now it is yes we made the playoffs. Backed into it with some convoluted 3 way tie breaking magic. It took a heroic finish - not by us, but by Atlanta. I don’t hardly know how to feel about it. I don’t feel like we won it. It is just sort of, well okay here we are, somehow. Our number came up. We were lucky. And that is what we were. Not good, lucky.  As far as here, this discussion, I think people rightly feel like, look at the offense. And it is kind of, what offense? They shut our run down and we become totally stagnant. Some people have faith that the QB can beat people with his arm but we aren’t doing it. We went into our bye off a big high. In or tied for, first place. We control our destiny. 4 games to do it. And we freaking finished 1-3. That control our destiny thing? We didn’t control poo when it comes down to it. Lost in the mix is basically a huge collapse. No one really called it out, it got lost in the excitement of the chase. But, 1-3 with the playoffs on the line - every week. Not inspiring. I mean, you don’t call that trending up, and if we hadn’t lucked into the tournament that would be our finish headed into the offseason. Not what you want. And if we don’t win Saturday? 1-4 to finish the year.  Limping out.  Okay that said I do hate going into playoffs on a winning streak because you are almost due to end the streak and that loss ends your season, so dropping One before the elimination games start is almost a comfort. But 1-3 with a 54 yard passing total in one of them? Followed by 14 points in a must win. Hmmm.   I am supposed to be optimistic? Sorry I don’t think I can be. I can hope, that’s different. It has just been a rough 8 years, and the excitement of having a winning record is in the rear view this week. About the only way we can have one is make the NFCCG I think.    Anyhow, on offense, where are the signs that we can beat people who stymie our run game? I suppose it could happen out of the blue but we haven’t really been able to pull that off.  Beating Tampa Bay was good. That was it though. Our other last little bit of glory is two plays on 4th down where they didn’t really pay attention in the back end, somehow, and we got two really nice results.  Not once, but twice back to back. Honestly it was so out of character it felt a little fluky.  And here we are, depending on that to happen Saturday. At least I guess is what we are hoping for. Good luck to us.
