Haloti Ngata traded to Lions

[Purple_ICE 81]

Just heard the news live on NFL live anyone have specifics?

[757RavensFan]

Just received the text from the Ravens.

[CTFan]

I would love for this to be true.

[dhstandard]

Only a 4th and 5th...Ray Rice has screwed us so hard.

[PurpleCity5]

Not suprising. I saw this coming, not that Ngata was traded, but that it was Detroit. Made too much sense.

[Smothy]

Officially reported by the Ravens Twitter account, just waiting to hear the details.

[jimmypowder]

I didn't see this coming

[Moderator 3]

Yep, official.

@Ravens: The Ravens have traded DT Haloti Ngata to the Detroit Lions.

[757RavensFan]

Its true.  Just read on Ravens twitter account.

[MissK528]

Alrighty then...

[Ravensuperfan1]

I miss Ngata already.  Hope we got something good out of this

[bMore Heathen]

Atleast we have some room to work with now.

[Tank 92]

Wonder who we get?

[redrum52]

What the hell do we get.. a gang if trades just went down. Ngata to detroit, Jimmy graham to Seattle and Bradford for Foles.

[Ravensuperfan1]

so how deep is this draft class?

[TDubbs]

We sure do have a lot of ammo to move up in the draft ... 

[ravensfan160]

I hope Detroit got desperate after losing Suh and gave up something good but I doubt it. Probably a 4th at the most.

[Number23]

l think this was probably the best route for the Ravens to go, better than cutting him at least.

NFL Network just said "couple of mid-round picks" but nothing formal.

[PolishRifle]

WOW.  I can't tell if I'm happy or sad.

 

I wish he could've retired a Raven, but the organisation did give him all the chances he could get to stay in Balt, eventhough our roster is really deep at that position. Lets hope he tries to end his carreer like JJ once Ngata is ready to retire.

[Static]

I garuntee you that we made out like bandits.

I just saw a rumour of a 2nd and Eric Ebron

[Purple_ICE 81]

Wonder who we get?

More specifically what draft compensation we get. Maybe a 3rd or 4th rounder? Not sure

[The Mom Gene]

You can only bargain for so long.......  then you have to do what you have to do.

Wow! I hope we got a good pick for him... it sucks for us man! I think for losing Suh and acquiring Ngata, the Lions did really well! We didn't have a choice but to get something in return for him I suppose... At least we have some cap room now!

[Inqui]

$500 says this is one of those trades that fans constantly second guess because they wanted more from it. Haloti is the new Boldin.

[BmoreBird22]

so how deep is this draft class?

What position?

[The Mom Gene]

He still may retire a Raven...  Look at Jarrett Johnson.

[Tank 92]

NFLN reports "a couple of mid round picks".

[D_UP]

Ngata didn't want to take pay cut. So he had to go. I don't blame him for not taking cut.

[Cville-Raven]

Guess we were desperate to dump that cap space
