Re: Flacco deal has apparently been finalized!
You'd also be tendering all your rookies once their deal is up and if anyone played exceptional they'd be franchise tagged. Then tenders aren't too expensive either but the tag would be depending on position. So in that scenario he might need re done.

Re: Flacco deal has apparently been finalized!
I'm pretty sure most teams would restructure a contract that has a cap hit of $29M. If you look at the year by year salary cap hit of Joe's contract posted by Bmoreravor (via Albert Breer) it screams of a restructure and extension. Furthermore Joe has been very durable and I expect to him play a few more years beyond 2018 so it makes sense to restructure/extend him so we can continue to field a contending team and be in a better position to pay the next group of Ravens superstars.

Re: Flacco deal has apparently been finalized!
If I understand you, yes...it's a rolling process, and another purpose would be to bring in that expensive UDFA. The challenge is that you still need to make the tough decision(s) of cutting productive/likeable players due to age and/or them pricing themselves extremely high (via performance)."The Ravens are not taking Jimmy Smith at 26!" -- Me, the day before the 2011 Draft
"On their way to the podium, the Ravens FO is going to collectively step over my dead body and select...Breshad Perriman." -- Me, the day before the 2015 Draft

Re: Flacco deal has apparently been finalized!
It's funny how many morons(all obviously fans of other teams) are all like "Haha Ravens overpaid, now they won't be able to sign any other players, looking forward the them being 7-9 for the next six years".
Are sports fans reallly this dumb now? Or is it just everybody "hatin'"? Funny either way :)
