WR Diontae Johnson to Ravens

New Ravens wide receiver Diontae Johnson is a very cheap acquisition in Baltimore.

The Panthers are paying most of Johnson’s remaining salary in the deal, and the Ravens will only have to pay Johnson about $625,000, according to Jeff Zrebiec of TheAthletic.com.

The trade was Johnson and the Panthers’ sixth-round pick for the Ravens’ fifth-round pick. So the Panthers are going to pay more than $3 million in cash and cap space and give Johnson away just to move up maybe 15 spots in the middle of Day 3 of the draft.

 

NM my first response. I was misinformed… That sucks…

I agree, but I also think we didn’t have any leverage at all. And that’s what bit us in the ass.

leverage matters. 

Maybe don't make the trade then, if it only makes you worse in the short- and long-term? They never seem to consider that. Ever.

I know we are talking late round picks, but this trade is one of the worst I can recall.

Panthers- move up 10-15 *late round spots AND pay 3million+

Ravens- "upset" top end #2 WR Johnson

It honestly made more sense to cut him, about any other offer would have been better. Even Johnson for 2028 7th, at least then you got the tiny 4milllion in cap space.

Panthers are PAYING teams to play Vonn Bell, Dionte Johnson, Bradey Bozeman, and Hayden Hurst!!!

Just insane. 

0% chance that was the best offer. All I got is Dan Morgan is now employed by the Baltimore Ravens.

100% Id rather told Johnson to stay home for the remaining season and gamble for whatever comp I could get besides this one sided ravens trade.

It happened with Meshawn before.

All those reports "MuPtILeD TeAMs InTeRTeStEd", such horse poo.

At this rate, potential No. 1 picks should be clamoring to get drafted here. You'll get paid well, you can ball out for a year and then get traded to a better team, plus the Panthers will still pay you so that better team can get even better.

    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
