Great news, horrible thread title lol. Please change either to Dennis Pitta Signs Tender or Dennis Pitta Re-signs with Ravens. "Dennis Pitta Resigns" gave me a panic attack.

Ahaha.. I thought about that as soon as I hit post.. Sincerely sorry for the panics everyone.

 

Mods, can you change the title please.

[GrimCoconut]

It should read "Dennis Pitta extended"

That would have been much better. Still, this is good too

[Gordo52]

Lets start working to lock him up Oz

[EnVy_CaLiBeR]

Good stuff. Now let's get that long-term deal going. 

[edthehead]

way to go ,,pitta

[NaveSenrag]

Hope we can get him signed before the season starts. I'd hate to see the Ravens have to choose between making him the highest paid TE in the league or sending him down to the Dolphins.

My only guess is maybe the price is a little out there at the moment. They probably don't want to run into another Webb situation, either, where a player gets injured and they're left wondering what happened. Lol. 

 

We don't have a lot of big free agents next year, so we should be good. 

[rmw10]

I'll put up $5 in the Pitta Extension Fund.

[PolishRifle]

Take that Pats.

[Guest Mr. Nobody]

[dirtybird10]

Yeeeeaaa buddy! now lets get an extension for him and Arthur Jones and I'll be happy.

[Yatagarasu]

I think this was expected.

 

I hope we sign him long term because we can't leave without our American Express.

 

I have a feeling Pitta wants to be here with Joe, so he's not going to chase money in next year's free agency.

i think we can sign up Pitta long term with something around $6.5 million per year.

[ghost1986]

I like it. Pay the man. He and Torrey are our best receivers at the moment.

[Yatagarasu]

If we are saving money for Pitta and Smith, then Jones and Dickson might be the odd ones out. Unless they perform to another level that is worthy of a big contract.

[Geving]

Expected.  Now get to work on a long term deal.

[BallHawker]

 

LOL

 

Pita Bread will be the #3 TE this season, behind only Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham

[Yatagarasu]

American Express!

[CalvinSmoke]

I wanna see him pass up Jimmy Graham in terms of production. Rumor has it that the Saints want to run more. 

[BallHawker]

American Express!

 

 

Too many "white tight ends"

 

Suggz is quite the character, but I prefer my own nickname - Pita Bread.

 

My roommate and I also came up with Nugget (Ngata), IAmABanjo (Ayanbadejo), Double Trouble (Ray&Ray, 1:45 mark http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRitwEy5l2c), Kimchi (Osmele), Kunt-iff (Cundiff), IDontKnow (Ihedigbo)
