I think it has to do with Safari on my Macbook. I don't have a problem on my phone, but I don't remember my info to log onto any other server. I can't delete it before it happens. My laptop just doesn't like this site. I literally edit every post I make, just so you all know.

I have to edit my bids. You can go look at my last bid for what happens if I don't.

Denver Broncos: Anquan Boldin: 4.5 stars

You can't just delete or rescind an offer?

Denver Broncos: Anquan Boldin, 3.5 stars

Denver Denver Broncos: TE Dustin Keller, .5 stars

Denver Broncos: Golden Tate, 1.5 stars

Out of...?

Denver Broncos: Jermaine Gresham, 3.5 stars

Whoops. He bid on both, so he'll know

That says Finley...

Denver Broncos: James Jones, 2.5 stars

Denver Broncos: Jermichael Finley: 3 stars

Denver Broncos: Julian Edelman, 3.0 stars

That's a dumb idea since Rice is a veteran, wouldn't save money and would only cost us (so you'd suggest cutting two more players for a total of three just to mitigate the cap hit of one? Glad you aren't a GM), and would cost us a player who was generally really great.

We'd have $5.5 since you subtract dead money by cap hit, but it still means we'd be paying for a player not on our team.

Yeah, let's just cut Ngata since he's in the twilight of his career and we'll save.... $1 million. That's the point I'm making. It would be really nice if this cap hit was way lower now that he's not playing as well to mitigate the cap hit if we cut him. I think most GM's would love to front load and follow this idea, but it's hard when you're in a loop of back loading contracts and you have Ngata cap hits because front loading a Torrey Smith contract because it's near impossible

You would hope they could try to front load at least one and get in a good practice of it. I cannot understand for the life of me why you would backload a contract for an older player. If they are young and not yet in their primes, I understand. If they're about to be out, I don't understand.

I'll have you know my soon to be backup quarterback is in fact not a bum.

Apparently Harrison was the best run stuffing defensive tackle in the NFL, if you go by PFF. Not much as a pass rusher, but really stout again the run. He's also 25 as compared to Abraham being 36

We can call him a receiver if he wants to be a slot receiver and make $3, $4 million.

Just heard something interesting on ESPN. Pitta was flexed out into the slot on the majority of his snaps, not out wide. He wants to get paid like a receiver, so let's pay him as a slot receiver. The most highly paid slit receiver was Wes Welker, who made $6 million per year. Boldin is negotiating for $4-$5 million from San Fran. He's not nearly as productive as those two, so let's pay him the $3-$4 million he deserves as a slot receiver

I have always maintained 100% that it doesn't matter what receivers you have out there if you are flat on your back or running away one second into the play. A receiver will break free from coverage if you give him four or five seconds, but a quarterback will rarely make a good throw off his back foot with a linebacker in his chest after one.

The one thing we should be blaming this on is the salary cap not increasing consistently despite record viewership and all the new cable contracts. In all seriousness, I don't think the Ravens would ever seriously break the bank for Pitta. I think Joe would be much happier if that money was used to sign Monroe and a veteran center to keep him clean (or what ever other pieces we need). Tom Brady usually does fairly well despite a revolving door set of targets. Why? Because he always has tons of time to pass the ball

Pitta is 28 and will be 29 in June. He's coming off a hip injury that could have possibly ended his career. He's had one decent (not great) season as a receiver and offers nothing as a blocker. When does all of this add up to him getting a big pay day? It doesn't to me.I wonder if it's better for him to move on. Joe's struggles were in part due to the skill of the receivers, but I'd put most of the blame on the offensive line. With Pitta out, it required Joe to look at more options than just Pitta (who Joe seemed to really lock onto in a major way when Pitta came back). He was forced to try to get the ball to Marlon and Tandon, and I think that was really valuable for them. Tandon was actually doing fairly well before Pitta came back and I'm sure Marlon appreciates all the experience he got. I would still want the Ravens to address tight end with someone like ASJ or Ebron, but I don't think it's a make or break if Pitta doesn't come back, and I think it would do good things for the younger guys.
