If at first you don’t succeed…..

Bengals FA edge Trey Hendrickson, the top pass-rusher on the market, is set to sign with the #Ravens, per me and

Ravens and Trey Hendrickson reached agreement on a four-year, $112 million contract.

Hendrickson stays in the AFC North, and now will be facing Joe Burrow and the Bengals twice a season.

Shocker

Fuck those ravens! Now cost them no draft picks

Their concern was they restructured Jackson to make cap room for Crosby.

They were not only forced to fill a defensive position but justify the restructure of Jackson.

The opinion is this could come back to haunt them financially over the next couple seasons.

Hendrickson a tier or 2 below a HEALTHY Maxx Crosby, but if the Ravens gave themselves an out in the 4 year deal they'll be fine all things cap.

Jesse Minter's scheme will make up for a lot of their shortcomings until draft reinforcements arrive.

I don't know what nixing this trade does to Decosta's reputation, but if I'm the Raiders and many other organizations I'm not answering any of that dude's phone calls.

Anyway

I'm not sure how tampering works, but shouldn't the Ravens had done all their medical homework on Crosby BEFORE agreeing to any trade?

I know the Falcons got slapped a draft pick for Cousins running his mouth about meeting with the Falcons' medical staff before signing with the Falcons last year.

Shit-off stupid on all parties involved, but mostly the NFL if they're not permitting medical evaluations before trades or signings.

So the Rats figured they could get Hendrickson without losing any draft picks, so they renege on their deal with the Raiders? The league needs to look into this, and LV should file a grievance. Of course none of that will happen because, for some inexplicable reason, the league and the media have an odd love affair with the Rats. That entire organization is so un-likable…from Lamar Jackson, through John Harbaugh, all the way back to the ridiculous phony Ray Lewis! Fuck them all with a rusty railroad spike!

If this were the Steelers Dunce Rooney would still forfeit the draft pics.

Isn't the bigger issue with the Rats losing Tyler Linderbaum. That's a massive loss
