papasmurfbell Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I think Ray would go to a bad team for the cash. I can see him saying I can fix this. But in the end it would be for the highest bidder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thundercleetz Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 If Ray leaves, I am sure that we will bring Scott back. FWI, information on the Ray situation: http://wnst.net/wordpress/drewforrester/20...-zone-with-ray/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cravnravn Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 I've been going back and forth on this...right now I think Ozzie will let Ray test the market to find his value Unfortunately, if Ray gets out of Baltimore in two weeks, Dallas will scarf him up.

papasmurfbell Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Don't count out Zona. There has been no rumors there but he could really help that D. They were so close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWI, information on the Ray situation: http://wnst.net/wordpress/drewforrester/20...-zone-with-ray/ Didn't Drew re-sign Ray himself like 2 months ago? Beside, that is what they threw at him before the season started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cravnravn Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 he will be gone by the time we pick and we can't afford to trade up We have plenty of money 28 mil under now..Throw out a 4 year 30 mil, 20 mil up front at Ray Ray, thats Cap friendly,,We only need 4 mil to sign our entire draft picks.

I don't think that would happen. The Boys can't throw that much money at Ray. I think they are trying to work out a deal and Ray will either take it or not. See if he will play with another team for less money. Even if the Boys cut TO which would cost them more then it would save, and I think that is who you have to point at for what goes on inside the Boys.

RavensFanNC Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Just a thought... For all these cats with 52 in their user name, will you still roll with that if Ray goes? Hopefully nobody has to make that decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCEagles Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I hear C-Mac saves us 8 million. And our cap was $19 million. So, if I know anything about the cap, we've got 27 million? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMoreHon Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I am willing to give up my name if it means keeping Ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavensFanNC Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I am willing to give up my name if it means keeping Ray. That's the spirit! Now if we can only get Ray to read this thread, that should convince him to stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83eh01 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 If Ray leaves, I am sure that we will bring Scott back. Scott could very well be signed by another team before Ray signs with a team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geo Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Releasing C-mac, damned. Leaving us with Stover and Ray from 2000 who btw is FAs. Both of them are gone too? Matt, well a one year deal perhaps, he has been declining for the last two seasons. Ray, I would love a one year deal, not happening. 2-4 years not really and not for 15 +15 mil or more. Time to move forward without Ray. In a way it make sense, if we let them go. New coach, new people and new era. Releasing C-Mac now means we are going to make someone rich one of the next days, hopefully three of them. And if it will be Scott and Suggs and then tag JB I like it. Thanks Chris!

cravnravn Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 So, if I know anything about the cap, we've got 27 million? Correct, and more to come when Rolle is released Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varaven45 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 So, if I know anything about the cap, we've got 27 million? Correct, and more to come when Rolle is released So, Crav, with the $ 30 M + pending, we can do the following: Sign our LB trio, Jason Brown and Jim Leonard Snag FAs CB Asimago, DE/LB Peppers and WR TJ Houzmenzada Sign all our draft picks Yep, that should do it ! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varaven45 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Yes, Yes and Yes Deangelo Hall anyone?? Shoot, yeah. Hal and Asimago gives us the Raider CB tandem. Why not ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yagersports Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I don't see the point of breaking the bank on anyone in FA. Oz made a brilliant move last year trading a third rounder for Washington. I would prefer another move like that this year. Maybe try trading down this year from our first round position since we have a solid team already. This would give us extra 2nd and 3rd round picks to use as trade bait for anothe similar deal. I'm just not big on spending big bucks to acquire another teams cast away. Once in awhile it works, I just don't see anyone this year that is worth spending the money on.
