JPPT1974 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Really hate that for him. But in a sense, it is time to move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I see the Bills giving him more money then we canQuite possible. We don't have enough cap space to sign him and 2 offensive lineman. Unless they really do like Urschel and Jensen we'll get out bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tornado700 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 The dead money is $4.4 million so we don't gain a whole lot. Anybody think we should go after Macklin? I don't know much about him.Yes, we should do everything in our power to get him. We NEED this guy. If all Maclin wants is the big bucks, we have little chance of getting him. If Maclin is more interested in being a Raven starter and getting 100 passes thrown to him by Flacco this season, the Ravens will be his team. Right now, I say it's about a 50-50 shot. Fingers crossed. He could be our next Steve Smith or Derek Mason. Harbs and Ozzie need to fly him here for a dinner/meeting with all the trimmings.

It is not like you come to bmore to get on a championship team to get that ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papasmurfbell Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 With less than 3.6 mil I don't see how they pull that off. They will need more space for injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsylvester Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 So $2.7 in dead money this year, $2.2 mil next year. Savings, of $2.5 this year, $3 next year.... Thanks for the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravinmaniac52 Posted June 7, 2017 Author Share Posted June 7, 2017 Wonder why Benjamin Watson is still on this team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Probably bc they have guys who are injury prone at the pos. Also they are hoping bc he has been productive that he can come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsylvester Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Wonder why Benjamin Watson is still on this team?Because then everyone would realize Ponzy Schemer has truly lost it when it comes to picking players. Right now, only a small handfull of us know it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I just don't see that the Ravens need another possession receiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsylvester Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I just don't see that the Ravens need another possession receiver.They need a slot guy who knows how to find openings, Decker does that very well. Oh and one who can catch & run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 The catching and running part is really on Joe. He doesn't lead his receivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmax Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 They need a slot guy who knows how to find openings, Decker does that very well. Oh and one who can catch & run. I'm with you on this.He's very reliable and a red zone monster.....a scoring machine.But....he has a hip thing going too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
