I posted this elsewhere, but check out Roquan Smith's new deal for a decent framework of what Edmunds' deal will look like. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/baltimore-ravens/roquan-smith-25103/ $9M cap hit next year. Which would be a reduction for Edmunds from $12M this year. And a potential out after 3 years. And regarding roles, while Edmunds doesnt rush the passer, what he does for us in the Pass game is almost irreplaceable (and I say this as a historical Edmunds detractor) Git r dun.

I said this Last Year McDermott lacks the killer instinct.

The Eagles had a 3-Man QB Controversy between Wentz, Foles, and Hurts that pitted Coaches against Coaches, and Coaches against Front Office. That is the only reason they fired Pederson and revamped the coaching staff. Not some guru GM amazing foresight. -
Saw those two out there as well. To be fair to Beane, Safety wasnt a major concern last May because we had two starters in place, and two backups we had been developing for years. No one knew we'd lose both starters to injury and then only one of those backups would be worth playing, and then HE went and died on us.

There is certainly a point to be made regarding the bold as well. And while I'm not here to make excuses for players or coaches, I would bet a portion of that was due to the early ankle injury that he played through for the rest of the season. I guess my overall point is, there is a lot more to it than "Davis sucks" and we shouldnt be quick to move on. A lot of what I see IS fixable. New Bomb-Happy OC and QB putting up low percentage balls to him. Early injury affecting his route running (which also disrupts timing with Josh). AND Gabe having an off year.

Agreed on all that. These WR conversations are always tough because the definitions of "target", "drop", etc are always cloudy. I'm sure there are a few that are "nobody's fault, just good defense" and stuff like that. My point was to illustrate that a good chunk of Gabe's regression was on Josh and Dorsey. Not simply all on Gabe forgetting how to play WR. For all those targets, and for everyone's perception, the fact Davis is credited with only 7 drops should be an eye-opener for a lot of detractors here. Not a great year for Davis, but maybe not as bad as many think.

I know bashing Davis is hot right now (along with bashing anyone/everyone else from the team), but let's look at those numbers... 93 Targets 51.3% Catches (48) 7 true Drops 48 catches + 7 drops = 55 93 - 55 =38 So for all those targets, 38 of them (41%) were flat out misses by Josh. Mostly those deep, low percentage heaves that Josh just cant STOP himself from throwing when the D shows Cover 0 or Man or whatever gets him so excited. Davis could have and should have had a better year. He had some bad drops, and some bad games. But a lot of his regression was due to the leaders of the Offense (Josh and Dorsey) completely losing their way on how to take what the D gives you, keep the drive alive, and move the ball down the field. Ding ding ding. A lot of them. Meanwhile, Knox and Singletary running open underneath...

Draft Stetson Bennett as our backup.

If Frazier returns, how much will your enthusism die?
DrDawkinstein replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall
Y'all make it sound like theyve never won a playoff game. Sure, there are some tough outs in there. Guess what, losing in the playoffs will always feel worse because you are over-hyped. We also have 4 playoff WINS. Holding the Ravens to 3 points. Absolutely shutting down the Patriots. I'm not a big Frazier proponent. But yall are out of your minds this offseason. -

DrDawkinstein replied to The Red King's topic in The Stadium Wall
None. Some of you mary's need to suck it up already and move on to the offseason. Get a hobby for Spring or something. The Bills are winning more now than we've seen in 25 years. We have a legit, top of the league, franchise QB. We are favorites to win the Division every year, and make a run in the playoffs. Get Von back, get Micah back, lets go.- 247 replies

Would you resign Edmunds or a tackle?
DrDawkinstein replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
Here's what we are looking at for the Edmunds deal: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/baltimore-ravens/roquan-smith-25103/ Not too bad if we could actually get something like this done. Get that hit down from $12M this year to $9M next year, have an out after 3 years. -

We got 3 day VIP passes for Shaky Knees this year. Bringing the kid and making a mini-vacation out of it. Lots of great bands for us "90s Kids". And I can't pass up Mars Volta and Tenacious D on the same stage!

I'm writing "this one is from Orlando Tim" on one of my molotov cocktails just because of this post.

DrDawkinstein replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
You need an entire coaching staff change to get what you laid out here. Which Im not necessarily against, but it takes way more than just signing a thumper., and that is a whole different thread. Our scheme does not ask the MLB to play like that, nor is it designed that way. Edmunds is incredibly good at what the team/scheme rely on him to do. -
The article linked proves that it is fake. At the end... The screenshot shows the next 10 predicted Super Bowl champions by AlbiesHOF with the date showing the predictions were tweeted out on December 16, 2015. However, one eagle eyed observed pointed out that this would have been impossible since AlbiesHOF's account was not created until 2018, making the 'predictions' bogus.
