papasmurfbell Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Weeks ago I thought they should just let him walk. Jones has never been a solid WR. Over the last few weeks I am begining to change my mind. He would be more expensive than the young WR's on the roster but he is turning into a production guy. I am sort of leary because it has only been a few weeks and I lean towards you being what you have been in the past. He could get a 3 yr deal or something and turn back into MR. Dropsy. I haven't made up my mind though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robjr83 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I thought maybe this post was about Jared Johnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 No. That boat has sailed. I don't think Johnson will ever play for Harbs again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I think the question is: can we afford him? He's been a valuable weapon and contributor last post-season and this season. He looks confident and executes well. I'd love to have him and Torrey around forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmax Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 What a hard question!He's one of the reasons the Ravens got to and won the Super Bowl. He'll be 30 and in his 8th year.Buyer Beware....and Jacoby is one of my favorite Ravens but if they let Boldin, Pollard and Reed go, then it doesn't look good for Jones. Boldin was so much fun to watch and Jones is just the same. He's a playmaker and a big threat every time he touches the ball. Teams must respect him..right now fear him.....but how much time does he have before he looses that step and burst and become an average Joe. Last night we saw the benefits of how he and Torry stretch a defense. You really don't want to lose that from your offense and Donte Thompson hasn't stepped up and shown that he can fill those shoes.

OutsideRzAcE Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 They will not be able to keep him so long as they have so much money invested in Rice. They really have to find a way to get rid of that contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cravnravn Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I dont see why not, hes only making 3 mil this year, I can see the FO offering him a 2-3 year deal in the same price range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 I can see him wanting 5-6 mil or more. They will not be able to keep him so long as they have so much money invested in Rice. They really have to find a way to get rid of that contract.There is no getting rid of it.

OutsideRzAcE Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I can see him wanting 5-6 mil or more. There is no getting rid of it. There is one way....we set him up like the Yanks did Arod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 That sounds like solid business. If players would distrust my method of running the FO I am sure they would love the Yanks style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
