  1. To reach an extension in the next week or so, we shall see, I hope so. Also of note, the Bengals have released one of their guard, Cappa, and expect to not resign their other one Ford, so there will be plenty of guards to help this team find one for depth.
  2. Me neither, it's not broken bones nor ligaments but hamstring, soft tissue issues.
  3. Ouch, that is a cheap price. But the 9ers are eating a ton of dead money. 1 year left on his deal at 17.5 mil for a player who has missed parts of or all of a lot games the past few years. if healthy, he will be a nice addition and surely extended to lower that cap #. If healthy, he would have flourished in the Ravens system, but that is a big IF
  4. Cap officially set at $279.2 million
  5. Abdul Carter, self proclaimed best player in the draft, now might need foot surgery for a stress fracture, ontop of a shoulder injury he is currently trying to recover from. They are deciding between surgery, a screw, or letting it heal on its own; either way, 8 weeks down time. He might work out at his pro day. Another PSU pass rusher hurt before the draft, perfect for Eric to draft in the 1st round
  6. The team has been to playoffs, been the #1 seed, won the division, had the best defense and offense in the league, yet lost in the playoffs because, largely, of turnovers. Not sure turnovers are on Harbs, not sure how that much success is on the coach holding them back.
  7. Well, if they can prove, in writing; emails & such, that he was banned, then maybe. But as of now it is still just he said she said.. Remember, one of the shops was shut down, we still do not know why. But this could be a case of trying to get back into business. For now his wife is standing by him, had she divorced him, that would be one thing, but as of now she is not. I realize this supposedly all happened before they were married, but...
  8. Tucker speaks out "Throughout the last four weeks, I have spent countless hours replaying every interaction I have had with bodywork professionals over the last thirteen years," Tucker told OutKick. "I can assure whoever is reading this that I have never intended to disrespect anyone, cross any boundary, or make anyone feel uncomfortable in any way whatsoever." "It devastates me to know that anyone I have worked with would not have felt respected and valued as a professional, but more importantly as a person, and to anyone who has felt otherwise, I am sorry," Tucker said in his statement, the full text of which can be found below. "I want you to know I am committed to ensuring that everyone I interact with continues to feel that I respect them and care about them as a human being." https://www.outkick.com/sports/justin-tucker-wife-speak-out-amid-allegations
  9. Dead season, I would not be surprised if "the radio guys" were reading a bit too much into what the players supposedly said. As little faith as you have in trusting the team, having listened to and to a small extent, been a part of radio, I can tell you my trust in them telling the honest, unabridged truth does not exist.
  10. Especially becuase of Ray, and to some extent Watson, yes, they would have made this public rather than try to cover it up.
  11. True to a point. It is not as if they have 24 hour, 7 day eye in the sky coverage of the internet on all things Ravens related, that is impossible. Even key word usage on the net like the alphabet groups use requires a ton of man power. Wait, can I use that term or should I use pronounpower?
  12. I'm not convinced that they knew about back then. Perhaps last year when his yips started, then once the reporter from that news website likely called. Quite dishonest of the news website to sit on this story until the playoffs started hoping the Ravens would make the Super Bowl.
  13. Williams is an interesting guy, can he stay healthy? Can his game continue to grow even when you don't have the best players on defense? Simmons not sure about. That line was a big problem for the last couple of years. Yes, they came together to make a playoff run & win, but I would stay away from that line
  14. Very, very speculative at this point. He can still sling it, can still dance a bit in the pocket, but he is older, and truly needs a clean, clear pocket. He would be an upgrade over Wilson no doubt. But that Steelers line is not much better, if not worse than the what the Rams have. The awkwardness between the Rams and quarterback Matthew Stafford has resulted in the Rams giving Stafford permission to speak to other teams. And other teams are apparently speaking to Stafford. Via Albert Breer of SI.com, the Giants, Steelers, Browns, and Raiders have shown interest in Stafford. Along with unnamed “others.” Each of those four will need a starting quarterback for 2025. And each could do a lot worse than Stafford. The challenge becomes working out companion deals with the Rams for a trade and with Stafford for a new contract. Along the way, Stafford might learn what a team would pay if that team didn’t have to give up draft picks and/or players to get him. Which could make Stafford more interested in being released than being traded. A release with a post-June 1 designation would help the Rams. It would cut in half the $45.3 million cap charge they’d take by trading him, splitting the number over two years. Of course, they’d still have to carry his 2025 cap charge of $49.6 million until June 1.

The trick will be to strike a balance that works for the Rams and for Stafford. Still, Stafford has some leverage. He could tell the Rams, “I’m under contract, and I’m staying put.” If the Rams have decided it’s time to move on — and the decision to let him talk to other teams tends to suggest that’s the case — they’d be stuck with Stafford and his $49.6 million cap charge. Of course, Stafford would also be stuck with $27 million in compensation for 2025, which is much less than he’ll make if he’s traded to a team that gives him a new deal. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/giants-steelers-browns-raiders-show-interest-in-matthew-stafford
  15. You beat me to it, yep, this should be interesting. While what he reportedly did does not reach Watson levels, and happened or should I say stopped happening almost 10 years ago, it is a nightmare for all involved. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/justin-tucker-allegations-nfl-conducting-interviews-with-women-who-accused-ravens-kicker-of-misconduct/
  16. True, but teams have to or are supposed to use all of the cap. There is a cap at the bottom too. Still boggles my mind why it is not enforced, teams like the Pats, Browns etc that have 40, 50 mil in cap space. The Ravens, while not perfect with the cap, do spend up to the limit.
  17. Cap to be https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-says-2025-salary-cap-will-be-between-277-5-281-5-million
  18. Yeah that seems to be the norm for them, have they ever drafted a kicker? I know that they have punters, but Tucker was an undrafted "gem", Stover came over with the Browns, Hushkah was a free agent...
  19. Glad to help, haven't really done cap & cba stuff in a while.
  20. Yes, it just makes it easier now, gives you more cap flexibility now. It is akin to loading up a contract in future years with large sums of money that the player will never see. Today, with the "guaranteed money" being a big part of the contracts, that way of doing business was replaced with fake years.
  21. Meh, trading up is no different than trading back or standing pat. It's a crap shoot and also requires the right coaching and scheme fit. Draft a player who is used to playing in a 3/4 and put him in a 4/3, he may never work out. Take the way the Ravens secondary works, players playing multiple positions on any given play. You can draft a solid corner, but if he can't figure out how to play in your scheme, is a much. Dejean is one the Ravens wanted, another Hamilton like player, jack of all trades but the Iggles beat them to him. Sure he is good, let us not crown him, shoot the ball was thrown right to him, though he made a nice return and has been a very punt rerurner for them. As for void years, they are fake years where no money is actually on a contract. Player has 2 years remaining on his deal, instead of redoing his deal they just add 3 years onto it and take any remaining salary, convert it to a signing bonus and spread it out over the extra 3 years. Even though he is technically only under contract for 2 years. After the 2 years he is a free agent, if he retires or signed to another team only then will the cap be hit with his current 2 year salary.
  22. Looks like Ben Cleveland will be looking for a new team
