Vikings and Ravens finalizing a trade to send DE Yannick Ngakoue to Baltimore for a 2021 third-round pick and a 2022 conditional fifth-round pick, sources tell ESPN.

Vikings initially sent 2021 second-round pick and 2022 conditional fifth-round pick to Jags. Now get most back.
 
And we play them next week. Gonna have to wear their ***** out.
 
They have to in order to compete with the STEELERS.

Au Contre....Ravens won the division last year. AND THE YEAR BEFORE & they are still trying to get better.

I just got a text they are signing DEZ. They are also still considering AB.

I'm sure we are sifting around the league. But that ILB from Atlanta, Deion Jones, who covers pretty damn good, may be a vailable to trade for in the right package...

We need to answer back for these moves by the defending twice AFC North Champs...

let's knock these ******* off
 
I don't think he'll be able to play next week because of the NFL's policy on COVID-1984

he will because they are on a bye this week ..from what I remember its a week ..just like Bell is available to the Chefs this week

I like to add to my knowledge base, not assume I know everything. So thanks for the clarification.
 
Both the Jags and Vikes were happy to let him go for not that much compensation. The vikes are not loaded with pass rushers. They want him gone. He’s a good pass rusher but weak vs the run. Maybe he’s a locker room problem?

it’s now also being reported that the ravens are looking at Dez Bryant. That’s because Jackson’s accuracy is horrible so he needs a big WR who can go up and get his ****** passes.
 
Dez hasn’t played in two years...not sure how well that can work out
 
Pretty hard to go to the playoffs when you HOF QB is out for the season in week 2.

yeah, that much should be obvious. but, injuries happen every week in this league, no one is taking pity on anyone else.

Not asking for pity. Just pointing out the double standard among fans.
 
The Ravens are paying 2.5 million dollars for not just a starting level QB ,but a guy who won MVP. They are rightly putting all the eggs in this basket. They probably have a three year window much like KC and Seattle when Wilson was cheap. Then you have to bleed off those contracts and then like Seattle you get a second/ third window if the drafted players work out. The story is not unlike the Steelers. However, I'm not sure Jackson won't be exposed eventually. They are gonna pay him next year and it could still go south. Wilson and Mahomes are not.

What was the excuse the year before when we were 7-2-1 and lost 4 of 6 to close tge season and miss tge playoffs altogether?

The past decade has been extremely average for h the steelers missing the playoffs 4 times, only two trips past the wild card round, and one of those was a gift from the bungles losing a game in an impossible way... 3 division Titles...

I say we quit resting on our laurels.. quit fading down the stretch... load up the best we can and make some real noise...
We have a good defense, but it’s probably not the best in the league yet, and the offense has potential but it’s overall production has been inconsistent and fairly average... if there are places to improve this team you do it... tgey are contenders, but they aren’t favorites or anything...

what double standard? injuries happen. expectations remain the same for every fan, i'm pretty sure.
