This could be a big deal. It seems Kyle Hamilton may not be happy on the Ravens and it also seems his teammates don't like him. Here's Marlon Humphrey directly saying that Hamilton is not liked.

 
Lol they signed Andrews over Likely last season then lost their best Olineman to the Raiders... they are way more internally fractured than they let on... and the owner is letting the QB drive the ship way too much.. they are overdue for a total collapse season..



we will see how their draft goes, but right now their defensive locker room seems divided, their Oline, which wasnt exactly great last year is missing its best piece, their starting RB is 32... 32!!! Their Wr room is Flowers... the ever inconsistent one trick pony Bateman, though maybe they try to bring back the 34 year old hopkins and hope he isnt spent...

They just lost both young good TEs...

They also dont have a first round pick... they have a 2nd,3rd,4th, (4)5ths, a very low 6th and (2) 7ths...

Two of those fifths are comps so basically they are high sixths..

That isnt even addressing all the other defensive depth areas they have issues with...

Oh yeah, also a rookie HC and new coordinators...

It may be a long season in Poe's-ville this year

It would be funny if it all falls apart and they dont have a first next year when they could be picking top 10🤣
 
Like honestly, if the Ravens super sucked this year and had a top 5 pick finish and we conclude Howard aint it at QB and a guy is expected to be available with that pick who we think would be the next franchise guy, id be ok with trading a huge haul to get it just so we can use the Ravens pick to get our future QB and make them salty about it forever🤣
 
I see the ratbirds also lost S Alohi Gilman to the Chiefs. They just traded for him last year mid-season and gave up edge Odafe Oweh who had 3 sacks for the Bolts in the playoffs and had his best season. I thought Gilman and Hamilton were supposed to be BFFs from their Notre Dame days but glad to see they lost another starter. Oweh went to the Commanders also, so both teams got the 1 yr rental treatment.
 
Very interesting. Hamilton was probably their best defensive player before the trade for Crosby. Love Ratbird desention.

Interesting, barring him failing a physical if they agreed to it via verbal contract the league should dock them the two firsts anyways..

They made the Pats pay the Jets when belicheat verbally agreed to their coaching offer then backed out
 
They are in complete disarray, and yes Hamilton would look good in Black and Gold. Make an offer.

Which is exactly the reason they have pulled out - bugger.
 
I was really hoping the Rats were dumb enuff to give up 2x #1 picks for Crosby.

The real losers in this deal falling apart is the Raiders.....they've been spending like crazy in Free Agency signing 8 Free Agents spending over $285 Million. Now it's all set to blow up in the Raiders faces. Crosby is back on the Raiders.....if they can't trade him by Friday March 13th his 2027 salary becomes fully guaranteed which is $29.8 Million. If you cut him before March 13th his cap hit is even worse it's $35.8 Million. I'm not sure how all this is going to play out but it's a complete disaster for the Raiders organization. A team with $110 Million in Free Agency this season but with their Free Agent signing they've spent $98 Million of that with $12 Mill remaining. Add back in Crosby's contract and the Raiders are now $16 Million over the salary cap!

Raiders are a complete ******* DISASTER! If they cut him they are SCREWED, If they keep him they are SCREWED!

According to OvertheCap Raiders are still $37m under with Crosby included. If your numbers are correct they could come back under by restructuring Kolton Miller or Crosby (although that would make Crosby basically untradeable as it would convert his 2026 pay from tradeable salary, to non-tradeable bonus - although given he failed a physical he is untradeable at this point anyway).

Using their first year cash spending numbers.....I they might be more like $3 Million over the cap but they are still over regardless.
