  • Dewan Landry is a RFA, but the Ravens are hurting as bad as us with their cap and have 3 LBs and their center to worry about also. They may be able to make an offer that Balt can't match because have to worry about signingSuggs, Lewis and Scott.

    The problem with tagging Jones is that the whole amount is guaranteed and all counts against the cap. Then for sure they would have to release or trade some guys to free up some money. Maybe they could rework some contracts.

  • Would you be willing to give up a 2nd Round pick for Landry? Because that's the absolute lowest level I can see Baltimore tendering him at.

  • the advantage of a team having a RFA is that they can tender him a contract at different levels, the highest of which is still below 3 mil. landry will likely be tendered a contract that will keep him with the ravens unless the matching team is willing to give them a second round pick, which will cost them 1.54 mil or 110% of the player's prior salary, whichever is greater. even if they tender him a higher offer so that they'd receive a first instead of a second, they can keep him around for at least another year for very little money, 2.19 mil.

    i'll go on the record as preferring atogwe, but i won't be too surprised when we resign/franchise jones. yes, we'll be overpaying him, but there aren't better options out there. we don't have many options.

    and, with our draft needs, there's no way we should possibly give up our second for landry. there's no way he's good enough to merit a second round pick.
