Drop ‘Em All & The Free Agent List
The receivers. The receivers. The receivers. Was it the Ravens’ downfall in 2009? Not really. However, it seriously impacted their ability to compete in the playoffs. Last night, Joe Flacco’s offense could not put together a decent drive after their first one. It was an unfortunate performance, especially in such a big game. However, when Ray Rice is covered, the quarterback simply has no one to throw to. Players may be “open” down field, but are the plays even designed to go the receivers? Or are they mostly designed to avoid mistakes? In order for Joe Flacco to throw thirty touchdown passes next season, the Ravens need some wide receivers. It’s likely that Derrick Mason will retire. "I got some months to think about it," Mason said. "I’m not in a rush. If I decide to play, obviously this would be a place that I’ll come back to. All the pieces are in place. But I have to think about my two little ones [children]." Mark Clayton, Demetrius Williams, and Kelley Washington are all free agents, so I say: “Drop ‘Em All!” Why not get a fresh start? Meanwhile, Jared Gaither is a restricted free agent. He was constantly injured throughout the season and Michael Oher has proved that he is this franchise’s left tackle of the future. I say: “Cut ‘Em!” Tight End Todd Heap has become a very effective blocking tight end for the Ravens. However, he is constantly beat up. Despite the amount of games he has played this season, he just is not the old Heap, so I say: “Cut ‘Em!” Trade Troy Smith. He’s an unnecessary distraction. Get a nice draft pick for him.
