WR Diontae Johnson to Ravens

[Mistuh Jones]

[Ricky Spanish]

Regardless of how either team ends the season, it won't be a one pick trade up due to comp picks.

We really had no leverage in this and it sucks.

• He isn't under contract next season
• We weren't going to extend him
• He was in a position to demand more money than he's worth due to our poor overall roster structure
• He wasn't exactly lighting the world on fire aside from the Oakland game
• He's on tape giving up on numerous routes and refusing to block
• Letting him walk in FA would NOT have resulted in a comp pick due to us needing to fill out the roster by signing a FA in the offseason. It would offset the comp pick formula.
• Team is overall dogshit so there was no point in keeping him when we have young guys on the roster to try to develop in Legette and Coker.

I wanted more like everyone else but I get why that's the best offer we got.

Possibly, but you don’t get comp picks if we go FA shopping which I think is a given we must do this offseason for the defense. So most likely no, we would have gotten zero from a comp pick

We don't have cap room to go shopping

Hard to believe the best offer we could get was a 5th rounder for a 6th rounder and Johnson... At that point, might as well just release him and let him go to whatever team he wants because we literally gained zero value from this trade.

And it's trades like this that make it easy to understand why we are and have been the worst team in the NFL for several years

There is no way you could ever convince me this was the best option.  Especially considering kirk and diggs just went down

I would have been pleased with a 4th excited for a 3rd. Bummed over a 5th.

People getting upset about this trade expected wayyyy too much. We had no leverage. What did yall expect?

honestly this should have been expected. 

I don't know... A trade that resulted in us getting more than 1 pick that is six spots better than what our 6th rounder would have been...

They basically paying this dude to possibly go be the missing piece for a contending team. Don't worry Ravens we will pay most of his salary hopefully he balls out for you guys.

 

This franchise is a damn joke!

I don't think he was worth what people think here. 

Maybe not, but I also think he's worth more than what we got.

A pick is a pick. This is the smart move.

He isn't an elite player, he went after multiple teams had filled their need and he wasn't happy to be here. 

There wasn't much to negotiate about. 

Honestly, you're probably right. We're lucky we got anything for him 

[PleaseCutStewart]

We honestly just need to nuke this entire franchise. Cut all the players, fire all the staff (from coach to coordinators to position coaches to medical staff to anyone else), and just completely start anew. We need to get the shitstains that are our players and coaches off this team.

Unfortunately our cuck owner can't fire himself, but the next best thing is just getting rid of literally everyone else, forfeit every game the next few years, and see if we can draft some winners with someone that hasn't been a part of this dumpster fire the past half decade
