  1. Some of you guys have no faith at all. It's shameful! The minute you don't understand what is going on you start screaming about the sky falling apart. Quit being chicken littles and let the man finish putting the roster together.... Geeeeesh!

     

     

    It looks like your avy was saying this for you lol

  2. The thing is, IMO it goes like this:

     

    Top tier FA's (Big names, wallace, etc.) $6+ million/year in salary.

     

    2nd Tier FA's: $3-5 million/year

     

    3rd & lower: 2$ million and lower.

     

    Toler to me is a 2nd tier player.  He's a solid #2 cornerback.  $5 million a year for him is pretty good in my eyes.  Anything lower would have been a steal!

  3. I can't put a number on it and this is why.

     

    Last year, the team wasn't Pags officially.  It still had pieces left over from the old regime.  Now that Pags/Grigs have put their stamp on this team, we will now see how Pags want this to play.  It will be then we will discover out identity, our strengths, our weaknesses, our holes, etc.

     

    So ask me this question next year and i'll have a number, but right now, this is the first year we are really going to see what the new regime can do.

  4. Did not say he is....so nothing to be sorry about.  I mentioned what Ozzies outlook is and I like Bardens.....

     

    And no Doss is not old like Boldin....Boldin flat out got the shaft...I love the guy!

    Yeah, no more bail out catches from boldin. But I see what you're saying, I just don't agree with what Ozzie is doing.

  5. Lord have mercy.  Peyton Manning and Wes Welker is going to be deadly.  Imagine how their redzone offense is going to be.  SMH.


     


    I don't care what you guys say, it looks like it's going to be the 49ers/Seahawks & Broncos in the SB.

  6. I don't know how we didn't get Vasquez. We should have thrown money at him. But I guess he wanted to play for a contender because I'm pretty sure the broncos are going to the afc championship this year. I'm pretty happy with our FA so far. No big names besides Avril but good guys.

  7. They are essentially trading Boldin 6' 1 220 for Tandon Doss of IU.6' 2 210..I think Blood mentioned this earlier in the thread.

     

    Doss was exceptional at IU....is an athlete...and has a great vertical.  As Blood said, "Ozzie is pretty good at the next man up" philosophy.  You never know, they may be going after Bardens of the Giants too>>>> Who knows?  I would not mind having that big boy!!!

    Doss is no boldin, I'm sorry

  8. Ugly for the Ravens.  People say Boldin hasn't done anything for the Ravens don't know anything.

     

    Boldin was their leading reciever ever since he got there.

    Boldin was Flacco's security blanket.  He bailed Flacco out on a lot of bad throws.

     

    Boldin is such a weapon because he is basically a WR in a TE's body.  People are trying to say Pitta and Dickson will suffice.  I don't see those 2 being effective in the slot.

     

    Flacco will miss Boldin.  All they have (as far WR's) are field stretchers.  Who's going to go over the middle now?

  9. That Hayden contract was the beginning of the end of the run for Polian. He was a good corner given top notch corner money. Thought it was insane when they did it. Mix in a couple bad drafts , and a injury to the franchise and you got the worst team in football.The  Polian's  just made some very poor draft and free agent choices at the end, most notably not having a functional QB to takeover in case of disaster.

     

     

    I couldn't believe people were mad when Irsay fired him.  I couldn't wait for him to leave.

  10. It's crazy we are even talking about free agency after all those Polian years of the status quo.

    Yeah, one of the reasons why we couldn't build a team for Peyton for so many years. I really didn't like "sign our own" idea. I understand if te see was talented but if it was a Hayden type guy, look at free agency before we give out a contract.

    I like this regime. They are building the team through the draft and free agency while evaluating our own talent.
