Dwight Freeney
Is it possible that Ozzie could trade for this guy now? I know he can't play the run, but I could see him coming here and getting 10-12 sacks.

Re: Dwight Freeney
His cap number is near $14 million. No way they can clear that kind of space.

If he'd agree to play for 10 bucks, and a crabcake. We don't have any cap space.

Re: Dwight Freeney
Osi would be a better bet because his cap hit is about 11 mill less than Freeney's.

Re: Dwight Freeney
The reason the Colts don't want him, other than his cap number, is because he's 32 years old learning to play OLB for the first time. Why would we bring him here to do the same thing? Don't act desperate. We don't even know that we need to replace Suggs for the entire season.

Re: Dwight Freeney
Knee jerk overreaction. The Baltimore Ravens will be ok without Sizzle. Next man up.

Re: Dwight Freeney
If the Ravens can sign Ray Rice long term, then they will have some cap room to maneuver. Say they trade for Osi to shore up their pass rush early in the season, and Suggs comes back by November. Can you imagine the monster pass rush the Ravens could possibly have by the time the playoffs role around?

Re: Dwight Freeney
I think he wants to know who the next man up will be.
DeputyDawg
Kruger/Kindle/Upshaw/McAdoo/McPhee/Ngata and so on and so forth. Every player on the defense needs to step their game up. That's what next man up means- not that one guy needs to reproduce Suggs' 14 sacks from last year, but that as a unit, the defense needs to account for the lost production either in improved pass rush from other players, improved secondary play, etc etc.

Re: Dwight Freeney
Lets not panic here.
It sucks he is injured. Wait to here what extent he will be out. Worse case scenerio is we have upshaw on one side day 1...
Suggs will be missed for sure if he is out all year but life as we know it will go on. there are 11 other guys on defense who will have a say in how many points we give up.
Plenty of time in offseason to figure things out
