2012-13 NFL thread (non-Steelers edition)

[Froggy]

Percy Harvin was dealt to Seattle for a bunch of picks, too.


Wallace to Miami looks like a done deal, too

[Idoit40fans]

Boldin will fit in nicely in San Fran, they're gonna be nasty if Kaepaeraeialejakr can be smart. The Ravens are done being good though.

[Rylan]

The Ravens were idiots for letting that information getting out. Flacco sounding like a moron by standing up for him. It was a bad situation, glad to see Boldin in San Fran though.

[joopen]

Tony Gonzalez coming back for another year in the Atl

[Froggy]

I'm hearing rumblings that Ed Reed is off to SF too

what information?

[Rylan]

The ultimatum of pay cut or leave.

[Sam's Drunk Dog]

Paul Krueger stays in division and goes to Browns.

[shafnutz05]

Mike Wallace deal in MIA reported 5 years, $65mm

[Rylan]

Wow he made bank. Good riddance.

[shafnutz05]

If my numbers are right, just behind Larry Fitz for highest-paid WR in the league

[Froggy]

We're going to miss him but that's an overpay

[the wicked child]

I have mixed feelings about Wallace leaving. I know it is going to hurts us since we lose his big play ability, and I'm sure it helps other guys get open. However, he also made way too many mistakes for someone who wanted Larry Fitz money. Yeah, he made the I'm open and standing here 40 yards down field catches... but how many times did he fail to get 2 feet in bounds or make zero attempt to adjust to the ball? I would guess that they roughly evened themselves out over the course of the season. Unlike Fitz, you never expected him to go up and come down with the ball if it was even remotely up for grabs.

I'm sure he'll have fun in Miami since there won't be any expectations since they don't have anyone to throw him the ball.

[Rylan]

Whoa Tannehill showed flashes of becoming a good NFL starter. He is probably on par to become a Flacco type QB. Though he will never get the contract Flacco got.

What?!

[Rylan]

Fitzpatrick as the back-up in Pittsburgh would be super nice.

[the wicked child]

lolwut

Good ol' Buffalo.

[Froggy]

ellerbe signs with the dolphins. i think the ravens have 2 linebackers signed...

they have lost Boldin, Krueger, Ellerbe, and they are probably losing Carey Williams and Ed Reed, too.

[Letang Is The Truth]

Happens w every post Super Bowl team

[Froggy]

i dont recall a team losing their #1 receiver, half their starting LB's, and the 2 best players in their secondary all at once before.

this is abnormally bad for them. but at least they locked that ridiculous flacco contract down

lol that contract is SOOOOOO bad.

[Froggy]

pure speculation, but wouldn't at all be surprised if there was an element of truth to this...

they see flacco get more money than peyton manning, and then the ravens ask those guys to take pay cuts. they see that is a big FU. From what i heard, they wanted to ask boldin to take a $1.5 mil cut, and also that they were pretty much counting on resigning ellerbe.

[viva la ben]

Nnandi Asomugha was released by the Eagles. Look at all the rediculous mistake contracts.......in a couple years i wouldnt be suprised to see this happen with Flacco

Honestly, I wouldn't stay a Raven if they wanted me to take a pay cut. I would rather leave and try somewhere else that actually respected my contributions.
