News: Ravens back out of Crosby trade

[TheMarathonContinues]

I actually like this better for the Ravens.

Now they have Hendrickson & 2 1st round picks.

2 1sts for Crosby or any non QB is pretty dumb unless they are 25 & under.

It depends. If Hendrickson plays like he did last year and Maxx is an All Pro? I’d rather have Maxx.

I hope Karma catches up with Baltimore.

dont get why we'd be interest. We're in tebuild mode. Maxx wont be around when we are competitive. Only a team that is close to championship level would consider Maxx.

I’m going to bet we trade osa or Kenny Clark for Crosby.

OSA and a first rounder may have been the original offer we made. Time will tell, or maybe it won't.

OSA and a first rounder may have been the original offer we made. Time will tell, or maybe it won't.

Original offer was said to be a 1st this year, a 2nd next year, and Osa.

If Crosby truly is damaged goods that cost could be even less.

If we were in rebuild mode we would be doing what the Dolphins are doing and start unloading/trading older players with big contracts. Jerry and Stephen are in “win now mode” but the problem is their method is severely flawed. They still think quantity is better than quality when building a roster. Sometimes you just have to throw caution to the wind and take a risk. The old wildcatter would have never found oil if he took the approach he currently has to running the team back to his wildcatter days.

I don't see this happening. Why on earth would they go down this road with a guy with another questionable injury? PR disaster as it stands....

Because they just don’t care

I think they just decided Hendrickson was the better bargain. His price dropped, they dumped the trade, and pounced on Hendrickson. Really disrespectful way to treat your trade partners. I have zero respect for the Ravens’ front office. Complete trash.

 

[gtb1943]

I think the Ravens always wanted Hendrickson and used Crosby to get him
They NEVER wanted to give up the picks

 

[Robster8989]

If they wanted a pass rusher why not just pay Phillips and keep the picks? I think the eagles are atoning for all the contract shenanigans the past few years. Indy see them as players in this case.

Phillips is not in Crosbys league as an Edge

 

[big dog cowboy]

Keep telling yourself that, his knee is more serious than Ravens thought

NO it's not. He is on schedule. The Ravens had buyers remorse that's all.

Now they have egg on their face. Especially signing Hendrickson.

 

[big dog cowboy]

I hope Karma catches up with Baltimore.

A lot of people in that boat today.

 

[Starforever]

Full status as in 2x all pro, 5x pro bowl?

First step, push off, shedding , ripping, cutting, maintaining, etc. I could care less about accolades, will he be able to fully support the team.

Phillips is not in Crosbys league as an Edge

Not when Crosby is healthy. But Philly is cap strapped.

 

[conner01]

True. But age has nothing to do with the risk. There were significant questions whether Smith’s nerve damage would fully recover. Add that he automatically was a 1-year redshirt on a player controlled for 4 years. Drafting Smith was dumb, very dumb.

It sure turned out that way no doubt

 

[dupree89]

if a team comes out of nowhere and gets Crosby at a discount, I could see it being the 49ers

Diana Russini: "The Ravens spoke to Trey Hendrickson yesterday while Maxx Crosby was still in the building"

That’s foul, lol
