Ted Ginn is the ultimate terrible draft pick, pretty good player.

The Ravens don't have the money to pay him. Besides, Baltimore's history is loving up WR in the draft. In FA they pick up over the hill WRs who are generally fine but don't move the needle.

[Quote="Ornery and Hornery" post="537969756"] This is wildly untrue. People remember the Flacco Ravens run and think the playoffs are basically flipping coins, but it ain’t that at all. [/ quote] I also remember the Flacco Ravens run. What a great run. What a great team! Ravens should really win the Superbowl more often.

Well then let's move on to a less heated issue. Standards of evidence for domestic violence employment disciplines. https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/...7B43W53PLTMF24/ At a bare minimum, it seems like there is enough circumstantial evidence to say Zay Flowers did something not good. Was he hitting his girlfriend? Was he grabbing her so hard as to leave bruises? Was he barring her exit from a house and she hurt herself trying to get past him? Was he present when his brother committed the abuse? Was she lying about everything? Well except for that last question where the answer is definitely no, we will probably never know the truth. That's because the criminal investigation is closed with no charges. So knowing what we do know, which is very little, what should the NFL do about Flowers. I know for a lot of people the answer is to expel him from the league without any opportunity to play football again. But is that kind of discipline permitted under the union contract? Is it moral to take away someone's livelihood without strong evidence? Do we want NFL owners to make those calls when they will likely punish marginal players and let superstars skate? Is domestic violence so abhorrent that that weak, circumstantial evidence is enough for heavy discipline? Are cases of totally innocent people being accused of DV so incredibly rare that the harm someone in that situation may face shouldn't be factored in at all? I do not know. The one thing I think I know is that Flowers should face some kind of professional punishment and he almost certainly won't.

It pains me to say, but the Chiefs went up against the best teams and beat them all on this Super Bowl run. The only one that might be considered flukey was Miami because of the insane weather. Even if that one has an asterisk, it was the worst team they faced all postseason.

I was watching that Superbowl with a new neighbor and it was a really fun time until the comeback started. We both turned pissy and sulky despite neither of us giving two shits about the Falcons.

NFL GMs should put no driving clauses in contracts. We've got a 24 hour car service at your disposal day and night. We will reimburse you any cab fare. If we receive any evidence of you driving a car on a public road you will lose 5 million dollars.

fartknocker posted:They had a car service at one point through the NFLPA, going back like 15 years ago or so. Players just called an 800 number on their union card or something and they could get a car or limo basically anywhere in the country. It was like a $100 fee, and supposedly confidential. However, they dropped the program pre-COVID, in part because stuff like Uber and Lyft had become widespread in the interim, but also because a number of players repeatedly stated they didn't trust that it was truly confidential and worried that any uses of the program would get reported back to the team, regardless of what they were doing/why they were using it. That's incredibly stupid. Why would the NFLPA report back to a team on player conduct?

It's ahistorical to pretend that Diggs wasn't entirely worth that compensation. What else do they do with that money and those picks that make them better during Josh Allen's prime. A prime that didn't look like it was going to mean poo poo until Diggs rolled into town.

The current Raven helmets are pretty bad. It's impressive how much worse those mock ups are.

https://twitter.com/jeffzrebiec/status/1783233712487854178?t=Vsch6MW5Tltbh0WDghIt8A&s=19 3 year 15 million dollars for Rashod Bateman. That's probably a great deal. Rashod Bateman should be a top 25 WR in the league. He's definitely not, but there's really no reason he shouldn't be. Gets open constantly, catches most of the balls that get to his hands, and has good size and speed. He and Lamar are constantly not on the same page. That plus injuries are his story to date. His whole career has been a huge "Huh, that's weird." I don't think this will work but on paper it really really should.

I'd thought he paid someone else to murder a pregnant woman? Which for some reason feels worse.
