Twitter: Ravens moving on from Earl Thomas, Cowboys most likely suitor

[Hennessy_King]

LETS GO!!!!!!!!

 

[Bizwah]

I'm more bothered by him missing all those meetings. Fighting happens all the time in football. This is a passionate game. Missing meetings....that's more about commitment to your team.

 

[JohnsKey19]

Yes. The fact that it happened was not a surprise. But on a Saturday was odd. I guess we'll see...

 

[Jipper]

If we sign this guy I think we may instantly be propelled to a top 3 team contender in the nfc

 

[RoyTheHammer]

I wouldn’t get too excited yet.

Reports earlier was we didn’t have discussions or interested. But that likely was due to him being under contract.

Still think it will be media driven. ET signs with whomever opens the checkbook

I wouldn't get excited at all. He's a malcontent that will bring down whatever locker room he ends up in. We don't need him.

Because of him?

 

[RandyOh]

Have you lost your mind!

You're new so you get a pass. You will eventually learn about the infamous Risen Star and his posting style in time.

 

[RandyOh]

I'm not gonna get my hopes up. If it happens then it will be a day changing feel good moment like when i logged on and saw we Signed Griffen.

 

[CouchCoach]

Well, I'm thinking Jerry may sign him. So then it's down to the coaching for being able to handle him.

Have you not seen him with Owens, Hardy and even when Bryant was acting up, Booger's views on leadership are a little wonky.

 

[jwooten15]

Stephen will get Earl to sign a 1-2 year contract worth significantly less than we would have paid for him in 2019 or before. Make it heavily incentivized, so that if Earl acts up, he’s out. Could be a perfect storm of signings lining up here, boys.

 

[mschmidt64]

Would be ironic if we finally do get him. Just stinks how we’re now getting the ghost of Earl Thomas.

He’s probably still an upgrade for us, but really isn’t that big of a needle mover one way or the other now. Other then it being a big name added of course.

I don’t think this is true. I think Thomas is still quite good. Just going crazy though.

For money only, I’d take the chance. If he acts up just cut him.

 

[dckid]

Make it happen. This will be the Charles Haley piece.
Make my words. Buying a distressed asset.

lol.

No

I know the best football for most of these guys is past, but we may be hours away from having Earl Thomas, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Dontari Poe, Everson Griffen, and Aldon Smith all added to our defense (I know only Thomas is new, but you get what I mean).

No excuses this year, not with this roster, not with this coaching staff. It has been years since I've been this excited about a Cowboys team, even if they don't end up getting ET.

49ers and Texans also reportedly interested. Jerry needs to make it happen. I’d give him a good amount of guaranteed money this year, but nothing beyond.

I just wish McCoy didn't get hurt. He could have been a leader on defense.

Watson with a low-key recruiting tweet?

 

[Rayman70]

There you go! See, you that's all I was looking for. Just some quality reasons why you didn't want him. That works.

FAIR ENOUGH
