Dennis and Chris had a point on 99.9 The Fan. 

The trade is a reflection of what the NFL thinks his value is worth. Morgan can't control what other teams are offering. 

I mean the option is to keep him for him to walk anyways and then we MAYBE get a comp pick for 2026. All you do until then is take reps from Coker and Legette.

 

That's a solid point. 

But I also wonder, if the league is collectively low balling us and taking that stance given we are pretty well established bad deal makers.

It’s just wild that any name that people recognize in the NFL that end up on our team are traded. We have maybe 4 blue chip players on our team currently. With that being said, I don’t believe was good for the locker room based on our willingness to move him for as cheap as we did 

lol, 4 blue chip players???

Brown is really the only one with an argument and he only put up 1 year of being "blue chip" caliber before getting hurt for the season. who knows if he'll ever even get back to that level from last year, I doubt it honestly.

Horn is probably the next closest but he's as injury prone as it gets and despite his play being phenomenal in prior years when he was on the field, he's just been a bit above average this year and I don't view him as a blue chip player. 

I don't think any other player on this team is even remotely close to being a blue chip player.

Lot of conspiracy type of thinking going on in here. It's pretty simple.

He had been grousing with Young, that we know of. He progressed to acting out. Then he did the acting out by quitting on his routes and poo with Andy, commenting derogatory stuff about he can't do people's jobs for them or something.

Now we have Bryce playing, it wasn't going to get better.

Well yeah of course he doesn't have to worry about playing with Bryce Young anymore.

All that being said. He definitely checked out and validated what Steelers fans told us about him when we traded for him. There's a high probability he will eventually wear out his welcome in Baltimore. Good luck with all that.

If he can’t make it work with Lamar he won’t have any options left. It’s a contract year so he better make the most of it…

Well I was considering our two guards, horn, and maybe Brooks once he’s on the field but yeah……that’s my point. We suck ass and have no talent

Bryce sucks but if you're his teammate, you don't throw him under the bus like he did. You don't be an ass. You be a grown ass man about it.

Diontae is living up to the rep he gained in Pittsburgh. He's kind of good, but he's an ass. He's a short termer with any team he goes to. Ravens are desperate for a good receiver, but they know he's an ass so they weren't going to offer much for that punk bitch.

Ravens are great running team....with 2 good TEs, almost 2 WRs close to being on track for 1k yards. 

Johnson was basically a free luxury piece for a team that hopes to win it all this year. 

Must be nice to a Ravens fan.

Genuine question bc I may be out of the loop, what did he say to throw him under the bus?
I heard him sound supportive (or at least neutral) of Bryce even when there wasn't much reason to be.

Yeah but if he doesn't get his touches in a contract year he may get pissed.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
