damn. 

Can't let the inmates run the asylum so i get why JH/EDC drew a line and believed it crossed by ET after what has been reported since Friday.

I hope they find a trade partner as i believe a trade would free up the reported 10mil cap space?

That is correct. Since his salary is guaranteed the only way for the Ravens to get it off the books is if he's traded to another team. Releasing Thomas outright doesn't incur any cap penalties but it also doesn't open up any room. Basically their cap space stays the same, just less one player. $15 million in dead money.

So right now we have 4 healthy CB's who should all be starting, and exactly 1 starting-level S (Chuck Clark).

Seems now is the time to move Jimmy to FS or something. I don't have faith AT ALL in Deshon Elliott staying healthy.

Ill be surprised if they don’t bring Carr back for a depth piece at both S and CB

Chuck Clark is going to have to play FS. DeShon and Geno can rotate at SS. Brandon Carr should've already been brought back, now it's a no-brainer.

They need to use the money to sign Clowney or trade for Ngakoue.

We need more safeties, not D-line.
