Ravens better trade a conditional 3/4th round pick for Sutton or a 5/6th round pick for Mike Williams...Along with an edge rusher and Free Safety

Ehh, idk if Mike would be an improvement for the ravens receivers. Would be the same or worse.

Yeah yall dont want Mike Williams.

Sutton would be a great pickup tho

Problem with Henry is he's at his best when you have the lead. Down late in the game and you have to pass he's not going to be in the game. Yet another reason why they need to make a move at WR.

Should have gone in for Davante.

What everyone has been suspecting, just became more apparent.

It’s not enough for Henry and Lamar to just play good, they need to play MVP caliber football for Ravens to win.

They need to do something expeditiously

Teams need to be willing to let mid QBs walk if they want crazy contracts.

Imagine being Dallas, Jax or Miami

Dak making 60M
Lawrence 55M
Tua 53M

Paying that much to lose constantly anyway.
I complained about the same thing for over a decade until I peeped game. These teams don't care about winning and/or don't really know how. Their top focus is this paper which they make hand over fist no matter what. They got a cap limiting what the overall team can make so what do they really care what one individual gets out of that pie? They break the QB off, and then they become the face and take all the heat for the poorly ran org. They know the fans will bytch about QB's getting $60 Ms to suck while ignoring the owner making billions to do the same.

The rumors of the Bills demise were greatly exaggerated
I wouldn’t say you can say they’re a good or bad team, yet. Outside of their game against the Bills, teams they beat are a combined 15-25. Teams that beat them are 9-5. So far they’ve done what they’re supposed to do against bad teams and lost to their AFC comp. Embarrassingly in one case

They don’t look at these, they look at the Josh Allen lottery tickets. It may slow down but it ain’t going anywhere

I agree 100%. Somebody gonna over-draft Jalen Milroe in April next year and be in the same boat. If you're gonna draft these guys there has to be an acknowledgement that they are often under developed (pocket passing wise) or have limited experience in general. Richardson and Lance only had a small sample size of starts in college, which is a big red flag teams keep ignoring. To me that says they were not the next best player on your board though, which is why teams keep missing on QBs. Maybe AR can be good but no one can sell me on him being higher on a 2023 draft board than Devon Witherspoon, Jalen Carter, Christian Gonzales, etc. Hell if the Colts didn't have a great RB, I'd have Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs ahead of AR on my draft board.
