    He's now a FA.
    The Ravens should pick him up. This guy is 22 years old, and plays a position of dire need for the Ravens.

    Not to say the PAC 12 is powder puff, but the SEC is tough sledding.

    Didn't Ngata play in the PAC 12? This guy has the potential to be a beast in this league if he can get his head out of his arse. He needs to grow up, but he doesn't have a history of being a head case outside of that one night.

    My point was in response to leach saying AT was a more productive pass rusher.

    Everyone deserves a second chance, I know I've done some dumb shit when extrememly intoxicated. Just have to keep the guy away from Power Plant and the bottle. He is atleast worth a look for the PS.

    And his response was to you saying the PAC 12 isn't anything compared to the sec, when ngata was in the PAC 12, in other words all his accomplishments meant nothing as well because he wasn't in the sec

    He was signed to the Steelers PS. If the Ravens kept Kindle around for so long, they should take a look at this guy. The Ravens should sign him off of the Steelers PS and at worst have him as an inactive player for the balance of this year. IMO, Ozzie is making a mistake passing on him.

    Thats probably it, nobody claimed him because they assume he has a big suspension looming.
    He could easily miss all next year if convicted on any of his charges.

    How exactly does the logical conclusion from my point "the SEC has tougher competition than the PAC12" mean Ngata's accomplishments were worthless?

    Totally unnecessary jump.

    The kid would face tougher competition week to week if he played in the SEC, so maybe he wouldn't be as effective as a pass rusher, as that is arguably the hardest area to be successful at as a 350LB DT. My only point.
