papasmurfbell Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Not a chance I would ink that deal. Not on a RB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmax Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 The market is set.Those are the numbers the Ravens have to meet to sign Rice....$21 mil SB. Look aty it this way...he'll get 7.7 mil guaranteed this season with the tag. More than $7.7 next year if they tag him again....only they'll have a very unhappy player. That's around $18 mil over 2 years.Pay him a $21 mil SB and you have a happy RB. Cross your fingers and hope he's durable and productive for 4 years. If the Ravens Brass has any Super Bowl hopes then they have to sign Rice. The offense goes through him and he makes it go. Odds are he'll have a great year this season and then start that long backward production ride most RB's with his mileage take. They can be 'good'...'servicable'...but never great as before.

papasmurfbell Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 I think they need to make a Hershel Walker type trade if they want to win the SB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
