tsylvester Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 Per Espn, Ravens trade with Panfhers for the speedy wide out. They swap picks, a 5th for a 6th. The Ravens, as others have reported, are sending a 2025 fifth-round pick to the Carolina Panthers for WR Diontae Johnason and a 2025 sixth-round pick. Per sources, the Panthers are also paying down some of his salary. So Ravens will owe him about $625K rest of year Even so cheap, how much better is he than the rookie or even Wallace? Not sure about this move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldno82 Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 It’s an alright move that costs us very little. Hell, the Panthers are eating most of his salary. we do need defensive help too though. I hope Eric isn’t done yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsylvester Posted October 30 Author Share Posted October 30 Remains to be seen. I would love to know what is going on with Walker, size, speed, yet he can't even be active on game day? Is he that bad at routes? No hands? So you bring in a wide out who is moody, shuts down when the ball doesn't get thrown to him. Sure, he is just "depth", for now. Know what pass he specializes in? The back shoulder throw, outside the numbers. Know what pass Lamar can't throw? Back shoulder, outside the numbers. Saw an article written on Espn, the reporter clearly doesn't know the Ravens. He claimed that Johnson would help this offense by making catches outside the numbers, where the Ravens are near the bottom on catches. He made it seem as if the receivers are dropping passes outside the numbers, when it fact it is Lamar who can't make those throws. Sure, Johnson is good against man, when he is the first read, but.. The Ravens run comeback, crossing, plants, occasionally a go route. They clear out the middle for some seam routes against man. I really don't see this as being anything more than depth in case of injury to Flowers or Bateman. So Walker must be really bad, sadly. Hope I'm wrong and at least it doesn't cost anything save a roster spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
