Wow, what a stunner, must be injury related

Fans, on message boards around this team, are desperate for a draft of hall of fame players. They look at Ray and JO, two future all time greats... Then, We go Suggs, Ngata, Yanda, (all 3 should be in) And they ask, what happened? Sure, Lamar, is likely in if he continues for a few more years, but blah, blah, blah They point to their own "drafts" now that they can "do their own research" and see how "their players" are doing so well on other teams. It's this generation buddy, they know more than the ones trained, experienced, with inside knowledge, know about players. Yes, we can all point to how "correct" we are about players. It's easy to make decisions when you have nothing to lose, not even losing face, since rarely do these people use their real names (mine is real). They just change screen names.

Yes, a slightly better deal. Clearly he was more interested in the annual salary, not in total monies nor in winning, let alone winning a super bowl. So get your money for 3 years, then bounce and try to win a ring somewhere else. No waiting on the tag number, no signing early, this was greed

From the home site According to The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec, the Ravens offered Linderbaum a four-year, $88 million deal ($22 million per year). Linderbaum got 3 years for $81 million.

Ravens offered Likely the same contract last year, he declined. The offered Lindy a similar deal, he took essentially the same deal from the Raiders. You can offer anything 3 years out, some players turn it down. Guess what? We rarely hear about the offers that were made The fact of the matter is; the Ravens are a pretty tight lipped org, they rarely give out contract offer news. We don't hear/read everything

Right! Three plays one game, hurt for 5 games, sure, quickness, speed, good eyes, but that's it, he cant stay healthy. Hill is just as good and better at blitz pick up than he was, good bye

Kolar is a zone tight end, no real speed, not much at run after the catch unless there is open territory. Stout was solid, but as I said, he was very inconsistent, not worth the money he signed for with the Giants. Good luck punting in that wind of NY.....

Gilman to the Cheifs, $24 mil, $15 mil guaranteed over 4 years. Another player the Ravens traded for last season....

Oh no, the melt down continues, they let Keaton Mitchell walk, the greatest runninfback, all purpose back in the history of the league!

Even if it was done last month, who else would the team have signed? Most of the guys were overpaid, Lindy could have stayed, but chose a few mil more to go to a bad org with no qb. Dean? Hasn't been able to stay healthy. Quay Walker? Over paid, makes as many mistakes as he does plays. Evans? Old, gets hurt alot now and takes a long time to heal. Tell me papa, who has not been signed because of the cap? They got Crosby and Simpson, a proven edge and a solid guard

I think this year they will target certain players, not the "best available" as in the past. Trade up or down to secure said players. Sure, they could draft 10 players, but I think it will be more like 6, maybe 7

Oweh to the Comandos for 4 years, $100 mil, $68 mil guarenteed

Lots of trades this year, wow..

Ravens get 4 comp picks, now have 10 draft picks The picks are compensation for the departure of cornerback Brandon Stephens (fifth round), offensive lineman Patrick Mekari (fifth round), cornerback Tre’Davious White (seventh round) and offensive lineman Josh Jones (seventh round). From Espn

Plenty of tight ends in the draft who will do fine here, more athletic than Kolar, better runners after the catch

So Likely signs for the same contract he was offered last year by the Ravens. Lindy, for essentially the same contract the Ravens offered. Good luck to both of them but they are replaceable. Lindy was always a finesse player, Ravens appear to want to get back to power football.

Stout was too inconsistent, not too peeved about him going. Lindy hurts a little, but for what he signed for and with a crap org like the Raiders, bye bye

Ravens bring back John Simpson 3 years, $30 mil

You're special papa, I don't think anyone else in the world saw every player along the offensive line regress, but you.

True Grub, thanks for bringing the sunshine

Dolphins take $ 99 mil cap hit by cutting Tua, post June 1 designation, $67 mil this year, $32 mik next year. wowza

The fact that they made the trade and inked, to a small deal, Huntley, pretty much says that they are confident a deal will get done. It's not as if they are going after more high priced free agents,

Rumors on the you tube, believe or not, from former players, claim the deal with Lamar is just about done and will be announced this week. I will believe it when the team announces it..

Mads posted a work out video, still not definitive proof he will be back or how effective he will be, but it is a good sign. Crosby will help the pass rush, mostly a 10 sack per year, 2 years above that, maybe with better schemes, he will get above that into the 15 range. With a full season of experience now for the young players in the secondary plus some much better coaching & a better pass rush, this defense should be better. So better offensive line due to better coaching, alone =a better offense than last year. Same for the defense.

Between the new coaches and the depth of offensive linemen in the draft, i am sure they will either teach them properly & or draft better quality. Jones should take over at one guard, the other and depth may come from the draft. The biggest question now is center
