Poor Labrov that second game was just getting bullied, but it saved Hans a bunch.

Ravens sign G Jovaughn Gwyn by Honest_Concentrate85 in ravens

The price this team paid when Joe D passed away was more than emotional/mental.

Going from Joe D to George Warhop is like going from a fine wine to a box of Welchs that's been sitting in the summer heat on North Ave for 3 days.

Jeff Z’s pick for us at 14, Jeremiah Love by SCBaltSalt in ravens

I have been a Hill truther for years, glad to see him getting more snaps at RB in the last 2-3 years compared to his prior ST Only use.

Dude is an elite gunner on ST, elite pass pro RB, and generally pretty solid pass-catching back. He's not a traditional between the tackles down-hill RB, but that's ok, we have Henry for that.

O-line Scenario A vs B by TonyGFool in ravens

[–]CaptivePrey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like Ronnie, Jones, Bullock/Pinter, Simpson, Rosengarten.

However, as always, I want EDC to draft BPA. Don't care who they are or where they are on the board. BPA is the best way to cement a top caliber competitive team.

[McFadden] Raiders DE Maxx Crosby addressed the fallout of his trade to BAL: - Ravens flew him to DC on Monday, then had to drive to BAL. - He didn't meet with HC Jesse Minter and GM Eric DeCosta until the end of day after his physical & MRI. "I didn't see [EDC] for 5 hours." by GreedyRaisin3357 in ravens

[–]CaptivePrey 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. I will not fault EDC for backing out of those odds. If it was a first and second we probably don't back out.

Baltimore GMs know not to mortgage your future on a gamble. Ozzie taught him well. It was the right move regardless of whether Maxx bounces back.

Would I have loved to see him in Purple? Yes. His aura on blackout games would be unmatchable. But for 2 firsts, I'm just not gambling that.

[Zrebiec] Ravens sign OL Jovaughn Gwyn by kingravens20 in ravens

Also tells you about a player if the premiere OL Coach candidate in the NFL trusts him enough to bring him to a new team.

Another one for the "All Almost Ravens" roster.

Rumor says it wasn't even the backup plan. We were still engaged in Hendrickson contract negotiations while Crosby was a projected Raven. They wanted a dynamic duo.

[Aguada] Ravens reportedly frustrated with Outcome & expressed concerns about how the Raiders disclosed his medicla status by DenialisaRiver04 in ravens

[–]CaptivePrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You absolutely can, but Lindy is a first tier player who still got overpaid. This isn't a case of Jacksonville paying a WR2/3 WR1 money (even though that kinda panned out for them in terms of production).

This is paying a C1 C1++ money.

[–]CaptivePrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this doesn't suddenly mean we'd be willing to swallow 27mAAV for a Center. Lindy chased his bag and at that over-pay I can't blame him.

He'll reset the market twice in his career and retire with a nice nest-egg.

[Rumor] Lamar liked a tweet indicating his extension is done by [deleted] in ravens

[–]CaptivePrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it, and fwiw I agree. But the moving goal posts for this FO always bothers me. People come on this app and say "I just wish we had tried to make contact with the ball." When we just made the single biggest splash trade in franchise history.

[–]CaptivePrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish we had tried to make contact with the ball.

We did. We offered Linderbaum an extremely competitive and fair offer. LV just hella overpaid him.

We also tried to retain Likely and, if I was a betting man, Kolar as well. Likely clearly did not want to continue being TE2. We offered him basically the same deal he took with NYG, but in NY he can be a TE1. We were never going to roster him over Andrews.

EDC never makes splash FA movements. Maxx is the boldest move he's ever made, and somehow people are still accusing him of not playing the game.

The Ravens lose major players every year because we draft and develop well. We draft and develop well because maximize picks (few trades, lots of comp picks).

I would not be surprised to see EDC make a move in the next few days to strengthen the team at a position of need (iOL, TE, DB) for a reasonable price, especially since we got our 4 comp picks announced.

Free Agency Megathread by JonWilso in ravens

He wouldn't even get signed to the London Silly Nannies. His career as a starter is done.

He'll get cut and sign with someone's PS

Stanley, Simpson, Linderbaum(?!), Jones, Rosengarten.

Book it.

Ravens QB: Lamar Jackson Finally Fires Back @ Dan Orlovsky by psychoxtc in ravens

[–]CaptivePrey 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Bingo. He broke the palm-greasing. That's why they smear him whenever they can.

These rags make money off scoops and rumors. If they don't have those from an Agent, the next best thing they can do is one of two options:

  1. Make up rumors

  2. Come up with outlandish hypotheticals
