He is just trolling. He forgets Troy Smith, Steve McNair, Josh Johnson, Cordell Stewart, Tony Banks, Randal Cunningham,Anthony Wright, to name a few...

This was about money, Pats just didn't want to pay his price. Not that it matters to them, they seem to be able to make any receiver work the best.
-
I don't get the signing either, but maybe Kaep didn't want to be a back up qb or wanted more money than $1 mil that RG got for one season. With that said, it does look suspicious when they are being put on the stand as to why the league has not signed Kaep, especially after their "pray for us" statement....

Boy, if he could stay healthy, a great possession receiver, who has good play making ability. http://m.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Report-Veteran-Wide-Receiver-Eric-Decker-Is-Visiting-Ravens/345049c8-4b09-42a4-ac3d-0d686e735d5a

And signed.... Oy.... Maybe a delayed April Fools joke? Other wise, more proof Ponzy Schemer needs to go.. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/23027547/baltimore-ravens-sign-former-first-round-pick-robert-griffin-iii

Pats get 1st round (23rd) and 6th round pick, Rams get Brandon Cooks and 4th round pick. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/23019268/new-england-patriots-trading-brandin-cooks-los-angeles-rams

Moore would be way over reaching at 16. He needs a lot of work on route running, struggles to get off the los with press coverage... Quenton Nelson looks to be a solid player, but the Ravens need a right tackle, you don't draft a right tackle at 16. I love Ridley, been talking him up since his frosh year, he has it all, quickness, tracks the ball, great hands and body control, excellent running routes.

Extra points after walk off touchdowns eliminated... Bout time, bookies wont be happy or will they?

Will be discussed after medical team, NFL, found players were 5 times more likely to be concussed.. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000923684/article/nfl-exploring-changes-to-possible-elimination-of-kickoff

Catch rule approved,keeping control while going to the ground never applies.
-
" to add fouls" good "catch" I read that wrong ..
-
Love the rule changes, though a catch will still be a catch to someone but not all... I think the review is only if the penalty is called papa.

I think this is a draft they would regret

Hurst will not be the starting right tackle... -

Yeah I like the first two picks, even the center isn't bad, but the rest won't even make the team... -
Eric DeCosta: It’s never too soon to take a quarterback
tsylvester replied to papasmurfbell's topic in Baltimore Ravens
I'm usually not a fan of USC & UCLA qb's, but Rosen I really like, I see the Giants don't if their recent trade is any indication... I am still a fan of trading back if one of three players aren't there, well 4 if we count Rosen. Mayfield, Rosen, Ridley, Sutton. I might even stretch that to Kirk, an over reach yes, but picking him there would be better than taking a defensive player as "the best player on their board". But trading back to 21-25 would get quality extra picks, and allow them to get Kirk & Gesicki. I don't want to hear they couldn't get a deal, take less if they have to to ensure they don't take defense in rd 1-3 and instead get the wide out, tight end, offensive linemen... -

tsylvester replied to papasmurfbell's topic in Baltimore Ravens
Chances are even Mayfield will be gone in the top 12, so there shouldn't be a qb there worthy of 16. I do agree though, if Mayfield or Rosen are there, take em... -
Never missed a game but even he admitted his ankle kept him from being at his best in the last few games; that is when the injury happened. For all we know he stretched his ligament really badly that it might require surgery in the near future if it doesn't go back to its normal size. Some do, some need surgery. After surgery most get back to normal in a year or two, some never do (they actually either stitch or cut the ligament)... It is a matter of opinion from doctors to decide which is best, rest or surgery. That was a lot of guarenteed money to gamble on IF his ankle is as I described, I am not saying it is.. Yes, they over paid, but he has a lot of talent, body control, strong hands, as I said, as they said, they hoped he would earn the big pay check. Now, since they have never developed a receiver, I think it very short sighted to pay someone like him who still needs to develop.. So maybe it was just an easy out via buyers remorse. I just don't see, as I said, since they clearly had the money, them ordering their doctor to lie.
-
Well, now you are getting into the conspiracy theory, scary lights in the sky type. Would I be shocked if a team, or this team, would tell a doctor to ruin his career by lying about a client just to make a few extra bucks working for a team? Nope, doctors lie every day... Still, I just don't buy that right now with this player. They thought he would live up to the contract, they could have afforded both him and Crabtree\ Nelson, then they got the results of his ankle. Again, I have two ankles that turn over pretty easily because I have sprained them so much over the past 50 years. I would not pay me that kind of money knowing I could turn the ankle just by stepping over an extension cord..
-
All contracts are only valid after the player passes the physical and are approved by the league. Bad form on the Ravens part yes, but all players know they have to pass the physical before a contract is validated. So if they lie about an injury it is on them if the contract is pulled. I am not saying he did, it is an ankle, just how much could be wrong with it, asks the man with 2 collapsible ankles because of so many sprains....
-
Well, the Colts only gave him a 1 year deal. Fast & loose? Na, second thoughts? Perhaps, how do you not ask about the ankle before the contract offer, right? But then, the great & powerful Oz did not know Boller had never played a game in the rain, ever... Keep in mind, they had the cap space to go after Jordy Nelson, while still "counting the contract of Grant".. So.. Buyers remorse, yep, they kept the receipt, returns are easy.

Hahahaha, suckers

True, and I have been remiss in not saying thank you for this board Dee and all of your efforts.
