Its about time Webb had to go, now when are they going to cut Arrington?

Wasn't Arrington injured last year? Until he clear medical waivers they can't cut him without an injury settlement. I don't know that for a fact, but if he still is rehabbing, then there is not much the Ravens can do with him until he is cleared to play.

Kendrick Lewis ended last year on IR. He was cut.

Kendrick Lewis also passed a physical and recovered from his injury.

Arrington has not yet done that.

I mean let me know if I missed something because I've seen players get waived from IR with probably a injury designation. I honestly never heard anything about Lewis passing a physical. They cut Campanaro from IR.

When they need to.

It needs to be soon.

No it doesn't. If you don't need his cap space, then you gain literally nothing from cutting him.

You don't just cut a bunch of players and pray that you can sign somebody else without knowing that you can.

But you can cut a bunch of unproductive players and their is no rule that states you can't cut them until they pass a physical.

Sure, you CAN cut players. But the point is you don't just cut players with no plan of how to spend that money.

Why do you think we waited to cut Webb until we agreed to a deal with Jefferson? Do you think that was a coincidence?

Here's why you don't do what you say you should do... because you cut Arrington, go into FA, look around, and determine that there's nobody you can sign or want to sign as a veteran Corner (which we need). So you cut that player, and then realize you can't replace him. So why did you cut him when you didn't even spend the cap money on anybody else?

Again, there's no difference between him getting cut now and getting cut two months from now. It changes nothing.

Where was it reported that he passed a physical? Players are cut all of the time from IR with injury settlement but I haven't heard or read anything like that for Lewis.

Correct. And when you read that a player was cut, and he wasn't cut with an injury settlement, what do you think that means?

Multiple tweets from Zrebiec telling people why they haven't cut Arrington yet, and why its more difficult to cut people with injury designation.

For starters, its exactly what it sounds... you have to come to an agreement on compensation to cut an injured player. So you get less cap impact from cutting him when he's hurt vs when he's healthy.

So you could just try to wait another month or two, see if he gets healthy, and then cut him for full impact.

Why couldn't we just revert him back to corner?

[J.O.14]

Webby needs to come back to Baltimore on a reduced salary.

Why though? Where would he play? I doubt he wants to be a backup. Yeah sure, we could use him in some packages, but that would be a drastically reduced role because he shouldn't/won't be our nickel corner. He isn't a corner anymore, and nor should he be. We need upgrades and to get younger. We need a corner who can play on the outside and is a solid option so we can bump young inside. We could have a very good secondary if we can add another solid starter...

Nfl trade rumor.. Ravens agree to re sign Anthony Levine. Solid move. Super versatile Rover type player Lbr/Cb/S

Because we are trying to become a better football team...

What healthy corner do we have that is better than Webb at cornerback?

One of my favorite Ravens.

One of mine to Cobra!  I will really miss Webby, especially since I still think he had something left in the tank. Webby made some really good plays last season. He has been an outstanding Raven both on and off the field and I wish him all the best going forward. Wouldn't mind seeing him back either.

That makes sense to me, thanks for explaining.
