Nice report from Mortensen on our FA's

Morty impressed me. I can't say I disagree with his analysis on anything.

Wouldn't it be great to get Joe with a 2013 cap number of around $10 mil ?

Mort's good. He has solid sources and inside information.

 

The Ravens have to keep Boldin and Ellerbe. I want Ed back real bad, but not at insane money.

 

I don't see how they get a $10MIL cap figure for Joe. His deal needs to be done by the 4th to save players. If they tag him, then that makes it all the harder to get a deal done by the 12th.

well, if they give Joe a Drew Brees type contract, the first 2 years are VERY cap friendly, after the third year, the numbers get close to 20 mil.

Can't do that. It's mortgaging.

Can't do that. It's mortgaging.

Depends on how much the cap goes up with the new TV revenue.

Restructure, none of the ELITE QB's actually play out their final years of the contract
