PFT: Ravens sign Saints restricted free agent Willie Snead to offer sheet

Pretty happy about this tbh. I think he was taking a roster sport that should have gone to Carr or Dural.

Even if CM does not work out we are still in good shape! Snead was a non factor for the most part last year and we still got it done. And agree on Carr, he is in the mix now but we got him too late last year IMO. He is going to get his shot this year.

CM is going to be on IR before preseason

And Snead will be suspended for another dwi. Call it a wash 🙄.

No doubt, he could totally be a wet fuse but we don't know. Stats prove though that that injury, if it happens at a young age, they do in fact recover most of the time so that factored into it I'm sure. If he was older, NO WAY. He is still a young man and will likely bounce back.

Seriously? If Carr or Dural "deserved" the roster spot - they would have beaten Snead for that roster spot outright...

Hanging on to a third, developmental quarterback is one thing, but with only 53 spots available on an active in-season NFL roster, it gets real thin, real fast...

If you're a WR4, you're bringing something immediate to that roster - especially a team who's talent level has dramatically improved as the Saints have...

Snead had one bad year versus two very good years - and he's paying the price for that one bad year by likely relocating teams...

Hopefully, we've got a healthy upgrade better suited to solve third down/red zone woes, but don't kid yourself and think we're not losing a good player...

And what exactly are you basing that on? Another $20 bet says he won't be on IR before preseason. Or are you just full of crap?

To be fair, it's not like Snead didn't get a chance to shine upon his return last year. And there's a reason the Patriots hate that we scooped up Austin Carr. Flacco is no Brees. That difference alone will affect Snead's numbers. Time will tell on who steps up to bolster our WR corps.

I expect the Ravens to fail him on his physical and sign Dez or Brandon Marshall
