Talk about striking fast, Ravens got in before others got desperate.

 

[Terry Yake]

........why?

the defense and o-line are far bigger areas of concern than WR

 

[GKJ]

If only the Panthers waited, like, 20 minutes

Traded for nothing

That secondary is straight ass, they need an upgrade

 

[StreetHawk]

So, even with comp picks at the end of round 5, that's like maybe 12 draft positions for the pick swap.

Thats incredible value for Johnson, why wouldn’t Ravens make their team better for nothing even if it’s not an area of weakness.

Won’t prevent them from addressing other needs

 

[Spring in Fialta]

I hope they address the defense because they're not winning a Super Bowl if they need to score 30+ every single game to win.

With that said, who's more loaded on offense than the Ravens? Jackson/Henry/Hill/Mitchell/Andrews/Likely/Flowers/Bateman and you add Johnson? My oh my.

Why just give him away?

Panthers man. Just no hope in sight.

Making it worse if they would have let him walk they would have got 10 more games with him and a better comp pick.

$3.9 mill more of salary/cap hit to take on. But, Comp picks are not guaranteed. Will be netted off against who Carolina signs and they likely will be active in free agency.

Trade only makes sense if he became an issue in the locker room/in the organization and needed to be jettisoned.

Because he’s more valuable in being lost for potentially nothing and providing Young/Dalton someone to throw to to try and find some stability of offense rest of season, then what they got back.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Ravens are just going to try to outscore everyone

To eat salary just to move up 10-15 spots in the draft….. team must be out on this guy…..

or they want to ensure the tank job

Ratbirds are a victim of success. They finish well far more often than not, so all the good defensive first rounders are not accessible to them.
About time too, because they've been overblessed with success.

They're flipping the script. Lamar 'points on the board' Jackson's about to put up 40 a week

They were shopping around the league and this is the best deal they find?

To move up 10-15 draft spots from early round 6 to late round 5 and pay most of the remaining salary, means that he wasn't that valued or they wanted him gone. Guess if they are going to be active in FA, then him being a ufa likely won't factor into comp picks for them.

 

[eXile3]

Not sure if anyone watched the Giants hard knocks but it definitely didn’t look like Dan Morgan was a great negotiator. Pretty sure with a little more patience they could have gotten better but Panthers got to Panther.

Don't worry next Trade they'll trade a 1st rd pick for a years later 2nd
