Our two toughest non-divisional games are at home which is nice (Broncos/Seahawks) but other than the 49ers, everyone on our schedule is (seemingly) competitive. Also hate the idea of our last divisional game being @ Falcons On the trade, I think it makes a lot of sense but I think the Browns have gotten an obscene haul for it. Doesn't make a lot of difference to your Ravens, @Srg - if Browns stayed I think they'd have taken a QB too anyway All the noise says they wouldn't have, but I tend to agree. Can't see how they'd resist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then let him go next year. Who has enough cap room now, given the frenzy has all gone? Presumably the likes of the Browns, Jags and Raiders still have enough. Depends if he wants to win-now... Patriots can get clever with no first round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they couldn't get a long-term deal signed, why not keep him tagged this season when their team is at its peak and he could be a difference-maker.

Patriots can get clever with no first round pick. I think that will be part of it. If Norman had of been available first week of FA, no way Panthers would have been able to match some of the money on offer. Theres obviously something off with it, maybe Norman wants out for some reason. On draft, even those picks projected as 'safe picks' have some risk attached to them. More and more reports on Jack having question marks. Still in my top 5 though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People will be feeding stories out about Jack hoping he falls to them, which is just as likely as there being any real issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanRam Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 BREAKING: Redskins & CB Josh Norman have agreed to a 5-yr, $75 million deal. Glad as we needed some help in secondary and he is a good player but that contract and 50m of it guaranteed? Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact he's been really average for virtually his whole career, and given his age, it would worry me if I was a Skins fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season best in his career as you say and as a diehard Skins fan, I really hope he can continue to perform at that level. With the Skins schedule he will definitely be tested this season.

SaintRam Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Panthers fans seem convinced he reached the ProBowl because of the front 7 they have, and were generally indifferent at his release (other than the weirdness of it). That is mental money that smacks a little of desperation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posh Ram Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I read quite an interesting piece by Peter King on that issue. Whilst Brady was definitely morally wrong, the league also carried out the investigation pretty unprofessionally. I'm surprised that before a court of law there was enough evidence to re-instate the suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
