I certainly think we could have signed Crabtree if we wanted to...I just think the team didn't want him at all and took another gamble on the young guys.

I don't recall however more than a very few wanting us to sign him on this board. When it comes to vet UFA WR's, the majority of posters here treat them like leprosy...insisting on unproven guys almost every year. It's weird.

LOL it is, people just have to move on and get over the fact that Crabtree and Johnson just weren't
meant to be for the Ravens.

Garçon makes Cousins look bad again.

People turned their noses up at the vet WRs that were available, again people were treating DeAndre Carter like he could be a true gem for the Ravens.

To be fair to Ozzie, if your in the salary cap pinch they are in, you have to skimp somewhere. When that gets exposed, people are gonna rant and rave regardless of where that weakness is.

If it was not the WR's and CB it would be somewhere else on the field, there is only so much money.

If Breshad Perriman and Steve Smith Sr were healthy and Perriman was producing at a high level to go along with what Smith Sr. was doing before he got hurt we wouldn't be 2-6 and venting about not signing Crabtree or Johnson.

Pats about to score again.

I agree.

Unfortunately its a lot of ifs that never came to pass. Like I said, if it were not the WR's it would be somewhere else. The cap situation we are in has consequences

Funny thing is, with all this talk now about Crabtree and Johnson, the offense is the least of our worries, and is definitely not the reason we're 2-6.
