Complete Offseason V.5.0

This took me a long time so please take it seriously, thanks

UFAS
Ray Lewis to a 3 year deal with mostly bonuses
Why? He is our leader and the heart and soul of this team, if we lose rex and ray in the same year we will go down hill quickly, He is always there making plays and his value is more than just in the field, off the field he is a general as well, we cant afford to lose him

Jason Brown to a 6 year deal
Why? The leader of our young o-line, he excels in run blocking and is a great pass blocker as well, he is a big man that we need in the middle of our line to play against those AFC North nose tackles, he is the leader of our lien and chemistry is crucial between our QB and our center, Joe Flacco and Brown have developed and we don

Pretty good, but the draft just went downhill, it was like you and your brother picked different teams in a Madden Franchise Game, traded with each other, and played on the same team.

[52Kia Kaha92]

what, i dont get it, what are you saying?

[Chi_Town_Raven]

No team, especially the Ravens would trade and pick up even close to that much.

[RoflDogs]

Suggs is not going anywhere
Willie Williams= EPIC FAILURE
Lito Sheppard just sucks this year
Tank johnson has major off-field problems
I don't think we have the money to sign both Ray, Jason Brown, AND Brian Orakpo

[RookieRaven]

Even tho Le Ron McClain plays halfback his title is FB and we don't need 3 FB so we (the ravens) will not draft Quinn Johnson if we resign Lorenzo Neal

obviously you didnt read the first line,
anyway suggs wasnt 10 mil + a year, woud you give him that
Wits in the 7th round, does it matter
Sheppard was good he just needs confidence back
what has johnsno done off field lately, nothing
Well i think we would because of the cuts, restruetcuters and SCott and sizzle are both gone

Its like you didnt even read it

I think Your Sheppard idea is great because he really is a great player just need to get his head back on right.
I dont think suggs will go anywhere at all.
and the Tank thing is a long shot but with no other teams really going after him because of his past problems we could really hit "Gold" if we get him cheap and he plays big so you never know.
the only problem i see with the draft is the money we wont be able to get a deal done with the Big guy from Texas and i already said i dont think suggs is going anywhere. and i think Nicks wont fall to us in the 2nd
but this sounds very good. nice job

[52Kia Kaha92]

i really see suggs leaving if he does wnat 10 mil + a year, we wont give him that but the Nicks in the 39th overall, i think he might,

[ZIBBY28]

suggs isn't going anywhere.

[bauer77]

i actually really like this mock offseason we would be gettin a lot and and upgrading many things the only thing i dont like is trading away suggs. he is too good to trade away at this point

[northsider]

Jarron Gilbert won't make it to the third round from what I've read. Too many teams are switching to a 3-4 and needs guys like that. Like what I've seen/read, but the Ravens might have to move up in the second to get him.

I can't think for a minute that Suggs would be traded for a draft pick, even the #9 overall. He's in his prime and arguably their most important defensive player (I'd take Ngata, but it's close) since he's the only every down pass rush threat. Even the #9 overall pick, Orakpo, Maybin or whoever, would probably take a season and a half to get to Suggs level (if ever) and there's no guarantee that a rookie would hold out any less than Suggs might.
