jumbalaya Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Here is the summary of Lee's first Raven game. Bet they had him going over the middle. Baltimore will want that 4th round pick back pretty soon. Baltimore's Joe Flacco spread the ball around and found six different players to catch passes for him. Evans was not one of them as he dropped all four passes that came his way. The four targets Evans received actually placed him fourth on the team, but he came away empty.
PromoTheRobot Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Yesterday was not a good measure for Evans. I wouldn't read much into it. PTR
Defend Greece Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Well I read a Baltimore post praising him for opening everything up for boldin Dickson and pitta, saying even without a catch his presence was worth picking him up Well I read a Baltimore post praising him for opening everything up for boldin Dickson and pitta, saying even without a catch his presence was worth picking him up

OCinBuffalo Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 (edited) Cutting him was still a financial decision. You mean trading him? "You're an idiot" EDIT: And don't try to play it off with a quick edit. Edited September 12, 2011 by OCinBuffalo

OCinBuffalo Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 No, I meant trading him. EDIT: don't edit the quote of my post, numbskull. I did...and you tried to sneak it a quick edit....idiot! Actually, I saw a pretty slick ajax thing that changed from "cutting" to "trading" right as I posted the first reply. Just fuggin with ya. You know that.

Doc Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Trading him was still a financial decision. Perhaps. Considering that's a lot of money to pay a guy who is going on his 3rd season as just a decoy.
Peter Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 He is such a good decoy, he is still opening things up for Stevie. FWIW, the stats show that Flacco targeted him 4 times. Having not seen the game, I have no idea why did not catch any of the four. If I were a gambling man, I would bet that none of them involved crossing patterns.

You can only be a sanctimonious know it all for so many posts...25 k...and not mess something up sooner or later yourself. Sorry you're aren't perfect. Carry on.

The four targets Evans received actually placed him fourth on the team, but he came away empty. one game three weeks after joining a team hurt and i didnt see the whole game but im guessing it wasnt 4 drops. he isnt going to be a probowler, but im confident he will help that team.

The note on cbssports.com under his name said he dropped all four. My opinion, without seeing the game either, is that they were crossing patterns as he does make catches on a deep fly routes but he does not like to go over the middle. If they made his go over the middle the four drops explain all that is wrong with Lee.

TPS Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 Perhaps. Considering that's a lot of money to pay a guy who is going on his 3rd season as just a decoy. Money may have factored into it, but it was one of several factors, and probably doesn't top the list. Here's a list of possible factors: - One-dimensional outside receiver who doesn't fit the profile for Gailey's offense - Never "clicked" with Fitz - Money - A couple of younger guys (Jones and Easley) ready to take the next step I'm sure there are more.
