Anyone else see this as the Ravens getting a potential pro bowler for nothing?

3rd and 7th in this year's draft? 3rd next year?
That's nothing these days. just ask Mike Shanahan (maurice clarett)
The Ravens get someone who is a proven pro, and they get him while their window of opportunity is still open. The argument , 'you don't trade for a RB' is well thought out but not the rule.

Why pass on a guy who can play for someone who can't?
EVER
Let's put it this way, who's in a better situation, Buffalo or Baltimore?

id say baltimore but only because their time to win is now... their not getting any younger and they needed an upgrade at RB

I'd side with Buffalo. I don't see McGahee as much of an upgrade given the Ravens o-line is deteriorating this year. Add to that Willis is a piece of crap as a person and yapped his way out of Buffalo. A-Train performed as well as McGahee did in Buffalo last year and there's a plethora of RB's around to be had cheap. Cheaper than McGahee's money. Those 3 picks can be used to position themselves for other players they want in the draft or via trade. Consider we got a 3rd and Simoneau for Donte. I'd put McGahee in the same caliber of player even if it's a different position, and 2 3rd's and a 7th is decent return for a team still building. They're no worse without McGahee.

I think this is a win/win. Baltimore wasn't going to get better with anyone else at RB. Lewis was gone. Buffalo gets some extra picks. 2 third rounders is pretty good. That should pay off down the road for them. So, who is Buffalo's RB now?

Oh, and...

Did a bomb go off on the server here or what?
