  1. I'm not sure where Hensley gets his pick numbers for us. First of all, I don't think the Pats get a round one pick (?) If that is right, our second pick should be #37 overall and the third one would be #69. Not sure if that is right, but was just wondering.
  2. Just as an FYI......just because a player restructures a contract, doesn't necessarily mean he "sacrifices" any money. In fact, it usually means just the opposite.
  3. Allen was the "stating" RB in week 15? Must be a new position.
  4. That is not an extension.
  5. So, you are saying they signed him to an extension, then(?) You have details on this extension?
  6. Yes, typos do happen, but when someone does this (or writing sports articles, for that matter) you don't expect to see them. It is, after all, what they do for a living.
  7. Eric Galko......pertaining to Shaq Lawson......first he says Lawson is 6'3", 270. Then he goes on to say he's 6'6", 280. So, I looked it up and found a site claiming he is 6'4", 260. LOL is all I have to say. I guess we will have to wait for the Combine to find out.
  8. The Ravens signed Monroe to an extension? I wasn't aware of or recall that. (Dane Brugler)
  9. "after spending his entire life up to that point on that the West Coast"? Translation, please?
  10. Even if he gets cut, there's still a lot of dead money to deal with. Sure, some of that could be offset w/a new, lower salary, but why would he do that? Sorry, that makes no sense. Nice try, though.
  11. Not much chance of that, I imagine. Personally, I am not a fan of his. He seems to turn it off and on when he feels like playing hard. Also, as much as I like the RB's we have, I do agree that it'd be nice to have a big bruiser for when we need him, which we don't have. I believe in the old adage that "the run game sets up the pass and the pass sets up the run". If teams don't fear your passing game, it's tough to get your run game going. The play calling (?)comes into play, also. When we become too predictable, it's tough to get going. I also think (sorry Flacco worshippers) that Joe needs to do a much better job of not staring down his receivers, which he does all the time. Oz and crew will do their best this off season. We need help in quite a few areas. It'll be fun reading all the "Crock" Drafts for the next few months.
  12. Turnovers, or the lack thereof. Pretty much wraps up the season.
  13. The NFL offseason "is increasingly become a season of it's own". Yet another article written by a fifth grader. One of many.
  14. Nice to know the draft is the "mostly likely place" to find those players, Garrett. Or that a pass rusher might not be "worth worthy" of the #6 pick. Got it.
  15. I agree that Frazier was a good addition. Solid guy w/lots of experience.
  16. You may want to read up on the difference between a cap number and a salary, since you (and a few others)seem to not know the difference between the two. Joe will not make a $28 million salary this year. You may want to read up on what dead money is, too, while you're at it.
  17. Rex was given another year to make the playoffs, but he has a nice, long contract. He'll probably not make it again next year, then get fired and go fishing for three years while getting paid.
  18. Must be. This should confirm it.
  19. They could. Then, if history is a guide, they might go on to become stars w/their new respective teams. Just sayin'.......
  20. I wish him lots of luck...against the Bengals and Steelers.
  21. Not bad. I had to insert missing words in only a few places to comprehend what I was reading. Quite an improvement!!
  22. I agree. In addition, it might be time to start taking a serious look at ejecting players from games (way more often). I know the league doesn't want to do that, as it could remove game-deciding players from games and fans want to see the stars playing. Plus, it leaves a lot of judgement up to game officials when to actually eject someone. For now, all that ever happens is suspensions/fines. Something else needs to be done, as some fans feel the zebras let games get out of hand w/the fights, etc. I have a feeling it will be a topic of discussion at the Owners Meeting.
  23. Let us all know if and when you find out, Walter.
  24. John......the Ravens haven't "sighed deeply about the fact Burfict got away from them". He got away from them? The team didn't WANT him. I doubt much "sighing" was done.
  25. I wish you the best, Matt, but you may want to have a backup plan.....perhaps coaching.
