Look at Judon.When the Ravens let a player go, there's a reason for it. Like the Pats, they rarely get burned on letting players walk.
Going back to their draft history in 2000, you couldn't even count 5 guys that left that hurt them after their departure. Juzychyck and Judon are probably the only players that have done very well post Ravens. But were they a must re-sign? No. Not sure how Orlando Brown is doing with the Bengals. Point is, they have a replacement for them.Matt Judon has worked out pretty well for the Pats. But in general I agree, they tend to keep the guys they feel are core cogs.
Just to add on to this - I would also make it known in the media that it expires, so that the Jags also know that whatever value Ridley tells them that NE is offering him is no longer valid come Wednesday. So Ridley can't use NE's original offer as leverage on Jacksonville.If I am Wolf I tell Ridley that my offer expires tomorrow at 3 PM which is an hour before Jacksonville can actually sign him to a new deal and not lose extra capital. After that time a new offer will be drafted.
Several high profile players with very little word going around. Hunter is probably at the top though.I am surprised that there aren't even rumors about Danielle Hunter. He is arguably the best free agent left on the market. He was pretty much the best free agent when legal tampering opened. I haven't heard a whisper.

They usually have a fairly good plan when letting people go. Aside from the two you mentioned, Za'Darius Smith also did quite well post-Ravens and Darren Waller became a Pro-Bowler after he was cut by the Ravens.Juzychyck and Judon are probably the only players that have done very well post Ravens. But were they a must re-sign?
Dam he's like a Judon clone.I am surprised that there aren't even rumors about Danielle Hunter. He is arguably the best free agent left on the market. He was pretty much the best free agent when legal tampering opened. I haven't heard a whisper.
This makes sense.
On Rebuild 31 very soon to be 32 no thanks.Even at his age I would love to add Keenan Allen. Gamble that he gets released as LAC gets under the cap and try to sign him to a deal similar to Hopkins.
Who do you want them to sign?The team is currently no better than last year. I don't think we can just hang about desperately hoping for Ridley until Wednesday. Put our best offer on the table and give him until the end of today to accept. In the meantime, we could do with actually signing an impact free agent. Re-signing your own guys is all well and good but at some point it would be good to improve the team.
This doesn't currently look like a team that has cash to burn or is going to aggressively attack free agency like we were told.
I would hate to give up significant draft pick compensation for a WR. At some point you need to draft and hit on a young stud.
