Ravens Cap

[vmax]

A lot of this we know yet it's time to get clearer on where the Ravens stand as far as the Cap. Eric has done a great job at being pro active.

Baltimore is projected to have around $30 million in cap space, which is more than what the Ravens have had in recent memory but still ranks in the bottom half of the league. The Ravens spent a sizable piece of their 2020 cap space on extensions for seven of their own players who were set to become free agents this offseason, including four Pro Bowl players: Yanda; cornerback Marcus Peters; place-kicker Justin Tucker; and fullback Patrick Ricard.

DeCosta, who made it clear he wanted the Ravens to become more aggressive in keeping their young talent from hitting free agency, did a chunk of this offseason’s work before the 2019 was over. Baltimore is returning every starter from the NFL’s highest-scoring offense and at least eight starters from the league’s No. 4 defense because the franchise doesn’t have to pay Jackson at an MVP-type level yet............https://www.espn.com/blog/baltimore-ravens/post/_/id/51696/why-mvp-lamar-jackson-is-at-his-most-valuable-for-ravens-in-2020

I love how he is cap responsible.

So far it has been easy, even lucky that some playere he went after did not come. However, 2 tackles, a quarterback, mvp, a tightend, one of the best in the league..... Yep, things are gonna get more difficult to control the cap

And that is where identifying the players to keep and trading the others comes in.   Keep the draft picks coming in to be young and cheep.  Play the game like NE.
