I thought this thread was going to be about some real and important threat to the team.

 

But...I thought I'd be a good friend and participate....

No not really. How often do you see UFA CB's or QB's be Pro Bowlers?

Wha..? There's no way you can deny that Justin Forsett was the right player in the right system. His numbers bear that out. Pierce's downhill style couldn't find the holes in defenses with kubiak/Castillo's unique zone blocking scheme, Taliafero brutish downhill style found limited success with Kubiak/Castillo's unique zone blocking scheme and what's his name fell flat on his face with Kubiak/Castillo's unique ZBS. Like it or not, Forsett, as it was with Ray Rice, was a huge huge part of this offense. Kubiak knows it, Forsett knows it, the whole league knows it, and any knowledgeble Ravens fan knows it. Justin Forsett will be gravely missed.

The zone blocking scheme requires vision and quick feet. Any other attributes are just icing on the cake. If you put JF in Tali's body or with just a bit more speed and you have a 2,000 yard back.

Forsett was good. I don't know that he will not have nearly the success next yr. He is 30 and RB's are normally breaking down by then. The Ravens can't put all their eggs in his basket. The Ravens can find his replacement very easily.

 

 

Crav, How do you know Forsett isn't going anywhere. Just a hunch or you know something ? Got a link or something ?

Because he knows these things as fact until they turn out untrue.

Again, Forsett will follow Kubiak to Denver for a raise in salary and a system that is ideal for his running style. This will be a major major loss for the Ravens' running attack and thus the entire offense. This is a guess but highly likely given Kubiak 's win now philosophy and the need of a running game for Payton Manning.

Could be. It depends on the cap. The two top receiving threats are FA's this yr. They may not be able to afford him.

They can find a way to slide him in. Forsett's been playing for peanuts, a raise won't kill Denver. Besides, Kubiak's system can extend Forsett's NFL career another 2 years at a minimum. That's a sweet deal for Forsett after all, he was walking the street before we signed him.

Just a gut feeling.

Pay pay has the donkeys in cap hell,I don't Kubes realizes the mess he's about to endure

Taliaferro will be the #1 RB even if Forsett returns and by deisgn.

 

If Ravens are saying SR is too old to carry the load, then Forsett is too.

 

Tally could save him a lot of wear and tear and come in on

fresh legs. He wouldn't even might someone sharing the hits.

Priest HOlmes said that much when they drafted Jamal.

 

They'll probably draft somone too regardless of who leaves or doesn't leave.

 

Just saying ya know?

Here it is in a nutshell. Forsett ain't staying here, he's going to Denver with Kubiak to establish the running game for the Broncos and Peyton Manning. Losing 1566 yds with a 5.4 average of production cannot be made up for either in Free Agency or the Draft. Our offense will be diminshed next season and that's not a good thing especially with our upcoming schedule.
