Reed will sign for anything north of 4 Million. I doubt Ozzie offered much close to that. My ed reed jersey is my favorite and I will continue to wear it if he leaves, but I have no problem with that secondary getting younger and faster

i agree, they even said their priority was to re sign quinn and they could not afford 5M per year. No chance ed gets near that or else they would have signed quinn and the Ravens know that so I can see them keeping in touch with reed and possibly matching any offer if its 4M or bellow, reed will most likely give the ravens a chance to match its wheather or not the Ravens want him back....
Goodbye Ed, see you in a few years for the Ring of Honor induction.
You dissed Flacco publicly, only for him to see the pass to get you to the Super Bowl, dropped by an eight year veteran. Only to see Flacco have the most impressive QB Super Bowl run since Joe Montana, become the face of the franchise, and by the way, while the team doesn't even make you an offer to come back.
The Texans are going all out to get Reed.
John McClain was on WNST this morning and said the Texans have never recruited a free agent like they are doing for Ed.
I wish Ed luck because it is obvious that we are not very interested in Ed coming back.
Unless, the Texans really want a SB, and think that this could be their year. The Texans have been good for a past few seasons, but haven't been able to get over the hump. Ed Reed could provide that veteran leadership that carries them through tough playoff games in January. That veteran leadership provided by Ed Reed, Ray Lewis, Boldin, Pollard, Birk, etc. is what carried the Ravens to the SB title this year. The Ravens were not the most talented team on paper in the playoffs.
To be honest, as long as Ed Reed doesn't go to the Niners, I can deal. He can do a lot to help a young, decent Houston secondary get it together.
I love ed, one of my all time favorites, but i dont think theres any chance he doesnt sign with them today or tomorrow. SO knowing that I hope he gets 7m/year and guarantees us an even better Comp pick. Good move for the Texans regardless, hell get plenty of opportunities in that defense.
This makes no sense. Why would you want another AFC team to "get it together"?
Brian Dawkins played the last 3 years of his career in Denver. I could accept Reed going elsewhere if we are trying for a bit of a youth movement on defense. We still have Suggs and Ngata for continuity as the vets. It's rare in today's NFL for a Hall of Fame caliber legendary player to play his entire career for one team.
I live in Niner country, and my hate for them has grown to a point where it nearly reaches the level of Steelers hate. I don't want to have to hate Ed too.
As for Houston, it be a smart signing, can't fault them for that. And let Ed get his money. I've watched him play, they're getting leadership, but not the playmaker he was.
