Brandon William's Contract - Something Brewing?

[The Excellector]

How did Jordy's visit with Oakland go? Is he still there?

They know more than all of us sideline GM's. We always seem to tell the team what they should and shouldn't do. Here's the thing they are in the war room and we aren't they have guys that they pay to do what we are questioning. I may not like some of what they do but they do know inside info we don't. That's like us regular folks trying to tell a General how we can win a war. However I do believe something is brewing but I think it actually might be for Crabtree

Not disagreeing, but that’s part of the fun of message boards, isn’t it? Regular folks get to pontificate about what we’d do or what should or shouldn’t be done.

Regardless, I’d be over the moon with Crabtree, but have to also admit, I am still holding out hope for Jensen to return.

from what i read, we need to clear a few million just to be able to sign our draft class. were at about 3m under and need to be 6m. Havent seen Kens latest numbers.

I highly doubt Mosleys contract makes his cap hit go up this year.

[AmishlandRavenFan]

To put that 14M albatross in perspective, our 2 down run stuffer is going to have a cap hit in the same ballpark as DeAndre Hopkins and Julio Jones.

Ravens football.

After reading that, I decided to start drinking.

Thanks for the hangover ahead of time.

Looks like they just restructured again. This guy is going to have $14.5 million cap number next year and it gets worse after that

lol what!? What are we doing... who plays a blocking sled 14.5 million to play 2 days in the first half of games

How did Jordy's visit with Oakland go? Is he still there?

NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reports the Raiders are working towards signing ex-Packers receiver Jordy Nelson.

Nelson had a positive visit with the Raiders on Wednesday night, and sides are attempting to hammer out a deal.

Oakland became the top landing spot for Nelson after his release because of new wide receivers coach Edgar Bennett's presence on the Raiders' staff. Bennett was Nelson's offensive coordinator for the past three seasons and before that his receivers coach for four years. Familiarity breeds connection in the NFL.

Crabtree coming to Baltimore

Who? Apparently Ozzie does

[AmishlandRavenFan]

Yes, and no. The deals were all structured to allow nearly pain-free releases of all 3 guys in year 2 of their deals.

They were cut players and/or damaged goods.

In other words, Cheap, speculative picks w/ low probability of going boom.

Very well said. Those are the kinda deals that we really shouldn’t freak-out about, like Brent Urban’s this year. They are almost no risk propositions with some chance of getting more than you bargained for.

That's all well and good when they're winning 10+ games per year and going to the playoffs. I've said pretty much the same thing in the past. But when they're struggling to get to .500 and trending downward, and making desperation moves in FA, well......

Other players in addition to Hopkins and Jones who have around a 14-15M cap hit in 2019:

JJ Watt
TY Hilton
Alshon Jeffery
Josh Norman
Calais Campbell (14.5 sacks)
Trent Williams
Bobby Wagner
Cam Jordan (13 sacks)

Our guy is not like the others.
