Danand Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I am happy we didn't commit that to him. True Raven, but with the current market he could be payed more elsewhere than he is worth on the field imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drd23 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 They can have him for that price. After seeing what Kwon Alexander got I feel like this wan inevitable Time for Peanut and Kenny Young to really stand up and put a whole season of good play together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rein Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Thats QB money! Wow! I’m glad we’re not throwing that amount of cash after Mosley. He is a great player and with all the intangibles you want, but he is not a “17m difference maker” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berlin calling Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 lol. the good ol' tradition of Raven standouts heavily overpriced in FA continues, ZSmith is next in line i guess. keep those comp picks rolling. i mean, they should be able to keep Smith now with Mosley not on their cap, so i guess we'll see at how much they put his price tag. new look Ravens all within one offseason. interesting times!

RavensfanRD Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Glad CJ got paid and I hope he does well with the Jets. A cousin of mine is a huge Jets fan, so if he's doing well or not so well, I'll see huge updates for sure. I hope this means we can take a look at ZaDarius since Mosley is off the books.

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 He'll be released in a few years and probably come back is what I'm predicting. Good for him on that deal though. That's insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SalvadorsDeli Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 I'm more worried about the brain drain that has sort of taken place between Weddle/Suggs/Mosley all leaving in the same offseason, but from a playing ability perspective there's just no way Mosley was worth that much when he's not even a plus player in pass coverage. Intangibles are worth something but they're not worth 17 mill a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO he is more of a football savant who is a genius from the time the ball is snapped until the whistle blows, but pretty dumb in all other situations. His greatest influence was probably helping younger OLBs work on their sack dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DontTazeMeBro Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 The salary cap isn’t 110 anymore. You have to overpay some people. Our defense is going to crash and burn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone (NFL fans AND analysts) need to get this in our heads. The money isn't the same. Now I don't think our defense will crash and burn, but I don't think it will be top 7ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have no idea what the cap is going to be in 4 years And when our defense is getting turned out because we lost all our smart players and we can’t get back into games because we can’t throw I don’t think anyone is going to be saying “At least we have that extra $4million a year we didn’t overpay Mosley” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely think the brain drain is real right now but savvy veterans on the downsides of their careers are gonna be exactly the kinds of signings we'll be able to make in this market for cheaper and I'd rather do that than throw it all at Mosley because of 'muh leadership.'

DontTazeMeBro Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Haha. And I just remembered our compensatory pick fetish. We’re getting no one except cut players who mostly suck because everyone has cap space now and no one is cutting good players anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
