His extension has hit a halt and I just don't think it's out of the picture for Baltimore.  I know he's their dude and former MVP, but is he worth the extension they'd be willing to give?

If everyone is on the table for a given price and we are really in on every deal, I'm calling them to see what their price is.  We have the moolah now to give any QB a huge freaking contract and pieces I can frankly see Baltimore coveting on our defense.  

Rivera tried that and ended up with Carson Wentz.

Regarding Darnold, he is in fact a negative asset.  But we pay him if we want to play him or not so wanted his contract off the books for this season tells me we're still positioning for something interesting.  I have no clue, could very well be Jimmy or Baker but I'd love to think it's something out of left field.

you still have hope?

Im living on the edge......I got weak during the Ian Thomas signing....took 24 to restore the little I had. Rhule 3rd year magic, saints&falcons look weaker......Tom can not play forever, one day hes going to wake up and not have the juice or get a bad injury. 

Good-great signing new coaching staff(upgrades across) and overall 1st wave FA class improved the squad. More improving can take place....

Well if we did get it we would obviously do a new contract to lower that by quite a bit

We could definitely get them to listen but we would have to give up one of our young defensive players. No more sweetheart Bill O Brien deals unfortunately lol.

      Ekwonu contract

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Our defense hasn't been elite. That doesn't mean that an individual player hasn't been. All an elite CB can do for your defense is greatly limit the other team's best receiver or greatly limit the passing success to his side of the field if he's a zone guy. There's still a lot of opportunity for the opposing team elsewhere.  I'm not saying he's a Luke or a Peppers. He's not. But I think he's a top 10 CB when healthy. I consider a top 10 CB to be elite. If you have a different definition, that's fine. I'm not gonna really argue where we draw that line or even if you think Horn is saying top 15 instead of top 10. Again, fine. Not really gonna argue that either. All I'm really trying to argue is that Horn is pretty damn good when he's on the field.

      I'm not saying there's not a place for him here. I'm saying we massively overpaid for his skill set in today's NFL. Both statements can absolutely be true.

      Has he truly been elite? I don’t recall our defense ever looking good over Horn’s career. I mean, is there even a noticeable scoring difference when he’s healthy? We have always, always overrated our guys and it’s pretty damn rare we actually have a player like Luke that it’s true. I loved Cam and he was a monster at times but we (most of us) revere him for his special plays more than results. Outside of the special 2015, he won 1 playoff game against a 3rd string QB. Don’t get me wrong, Cam was unbelievable at times but he’s a great example of us overrating players. Just for shits and giggles, I checked points against. We gave up 25 ppg from 2021 to 2024. In Jaycee’s 37 games, we’ve give up 26 ppg. I’d say Brown is far more valuable as our points against went from mediocre to record breakingly bad.
