NoFlyZone Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Bizarre move. He truly wasn’t that bad so far this season. I feel like there has to be a deeper reason here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See below 10 minutes ago, Matts4313 said: His 2022 salary is guaranteed against injury. It appears we shopped him and no one bought. I wont be shocked if he is resigned for cheap if no one else wants him. If he was injured we would be on the hook for his salary this year ($7m) and next year ($9m).

MWil23 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 It’s a preemptive strike based off of 2022. IMO this was a foregone conclusion when they double dipped at LB in the second round too. JMHO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuskieTitan Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Oh? didn't he earn a new contract after being drafted and working his way back onto the field? Or am I mistaken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diamondbull424 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Have to feel like the Ravens will have some interest. Our young LBs haven’t stepped up to the degree that we would like and we could use a veteran… assuming we could afford him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony7188 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Great move. Dude was a below average LB who talked like he was an All Pro player. Constantly blew assignments last year and while slightly better this year, he was never going back to his 2018 form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncofan Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I can't stress how bad Smith's instincts and read-react ability is. The raw tools are there, just he literally is out of position, or makes the wrong read, and gets washed out so easily. And that's before we talk about how he gets beat in coverage. He's literally the poster child for Combine / workout darling - and scrub-level results. Maybe someone can figure out how to leverage the tools, but it's not like he's this green raw, rookie or 2nd or 3rd year guy. I'm sure someone will take a shot - just go in with VERY low expectations. If it's for the vet minimum, I get the appeal, but beware the skills aren't anywhere close to the tools. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
