It says that he is not close to a long term deal with Baltimore!
Wwould you guys take him?

[halter91]

uhhh, hell yeah. I don't think we could afford him though.

[GSF]

Vet minimum plus incentives?

[RDSKNfaithfull]

ever heard of the Salary Cap? Sure we can sign the Defensive MVP of 04 for league min with incentives :laugh:

(GSF beat me too it :laugh: )

[Buford]

Gotta stop collecting superstars like baseball cards.

If Sean Taylor is part of the active team next season, I'm happy with blue collar Ryan Clark being next to him.

[hokie4redskins]

1) No way Baltimore lets him go.

2) To even think that would could afford him is just absurd, especially considering safety is one of our strongest positions.

Wait a minute, aren't you the guy that said 9/11 wouldn't have happened if Al Gore was president? Step away from the crack pipe.

[TheNewU]

who wouldn't take him, he too expensive though

[GSF]

Trade Arrington and Ramsey for Lewis, Reed, and the Ravens first rounder.

GENIUS! You need to be offered a job with the redskins! WOOOOOOOOOO ED REED HERE WE COME!:40oz::wavetowel

Hey thanks. Glad you liked my idea. I actually submitted a resume to the Redskins for the GM position, but that damn Cerrato black balled me.

[Walking Deadman]

If I'm playing Madden, ESPN or had a team with no cap-ramifications and money was the cheap paper used in Monopoly........sure, fuel up Redskins ONE.

Ed Reed is probably the best (when healthy) player the Ravens have right now and one of the best safties in the NFL now.....NO WAY we can afford him, let's just resign Ryan Clark and get to the playoffs again.

Ravens will re-sign him anyway...........

[Oldskool]

Salary cap. remember that pesky thing?

Not going to happen. Love to have him but no way it's gonna happen.

[skinstzar]

Vet minimum plus incentives?


Vet min for a guy who is one year removed from being Defensive Player of the Year? I mean you can suggest it all you want but If Ed Reed did anything other than laugh at that offer he should have his head examined.

If Sean Taylor has to miss extensive time due to off the field issues then pursuing a safety like Reed would be a must.

[flexxskins]

who wouldn't take him, he too expensive thoughDoes Jane agree with you? :)

[ItaliaMuscle]

not in even in the cards

[BLEED-B&G]

Does Jane agree with you? :)

ha ha, that's hilarious :laugh:

[H-O-G]

Sean Taylor and Ed Reed, that would be insane. Both from, DA U!

[SlobberKnockinFootball]

Vet minimum plus incentives?

Damn it only took the 3rd post for this one :D

[fdarugar]

Ed Reed is the best safety in the game, that said...no way could we afford him.

skinstzar -- you need to turn on your sarcasm-detector.

[twenty-eight]

GREEEEEEAT IDEA, i'm all in!!

[jasimpson]

Ed Reed + Sean Taylor = certain death

[LaVarGreen2856]

Does Jane agree with you? :)
Hahahahaha...... amazing!!

I would love to have Reed, but it will never happen.

[jschlesi]

He is probably the Best Defensive player on the field in the NFL-- given the opportunity how could you pass him up?
Doubt that the Ravens give him up -- if they do we dont have a first rounder to help entice.
It Would take Campbell, Lawyers, Guns, and Money......

Why does everyone bring up the salary cap? We can get him and Ray Lewis and Randel El while we are at it! We will just pay them under the table (off the books) and the NFL will never know!

This board gets to me sometimes! :laugh:

i do not know that we could afford him.

also, the ravens have put signing him as a top priority this offseason

[terpfan]

Sean Taylor + Ed Reed = WOW

Would never happen though...

or would it? ;)

[kevinklein]

I don't see Baltimore losing both Reed and R. Lewis.

I do, however, enjoy imagining him in the secondary with Taylor.

[MartinC]

Forget it - he wants paying big dollars and we do not have the cap space. Plus good as he is we have other areas we need to address before we upgrade at safety where we are solid anyway.


HTTR

[Mr. S]

won't happen. heh, in my madden franchise, I picked up Ed Reed when he was a free agent, believe me, it was pretty sick having both him and Taylor in my backfield.

Good Idea. The Broncos did win two superbowls doing just that!

[TaylorPickSix]

hell yeah id love him but it wont happen.

[jrockster21]

Trade Arrington and Ramsey for Lewis, Reed, and the Ravens first rounder.


Dude, no way. We'd be so ripped off in that trade...:)

[meetST]

if the ravens decided to let reed and lewis go in the same year....well i think they just took the trophey from the jets for making bad decisions

[IrepDC]

It sucks that we can't even think about signing any big time FA's because of our salary cap situation. Where is all of our money going? Our team isn't exactly filled with superstars. This team needs to manage money better.

[Simmsm88]

Isn't Reed a FS?

Well I guess it doesn't really matter. I'm sure most safeties can play both positions.

[Basileus777]

Isn't Reed a FS?

Well I guess it doesn't really matter. I'm sure most safeties can play both positions.

I think they only moved him to FS after Demps got hurt.

[roadkill]

The Ravens have had a discussion with the agents for Pro Bowl safety Ed Reed but have failed to reach common ground to produce a new multiyear contract for one of the NFL's best defensive players. The sticking point with Reed is that the Ravens want to make him one of the highest-paid safeties, but he wants to be compensated as one of the league's top defensive players. The difference is millions of dollars.

Translation: waaaaaaaaay too expensive

[Hooper]

These threads need to stop.

Exactly. I like that duo back there...

[iamthecam36]

i got the blockbuster trade of the year...Taylor Jacobs for Ed Reed...straight up. What NFL team wouldnt want a player with the magnitude of Jacobs sitting on their bench or even on the practice squad! i dont see how the ravens could EVER turn this blockbuster trade down. AND when we recoop from the cap hit why dont we just pick up peyton manning or mike vick.

[Mr. Nostril]

I didn't even read thread, but when I read the title my mind pictured Sean Taylor and Ed Reed both standing in our backfield with Shawn Springs and Carlos Rogers playing CB. My head exploded. I picked up the pieces and came back to post this.

Seriously, I think it would be insane, but we have much more imporant needs. Ryan Clark is definitely an adequate SS.

[HoyaSkins28]

Trade Arrington and Ramsey for Lewis, Reed, and the Ravens first rounder.

they wouldnt take it, we cant afford it

[The Bounty Hunter #21]

ever heard of the Salary Cap? Sure we can sign the Defensive MVP of 04 for league min with incentives :laugh:

(GSF beat me too it :laugh: )
ya Reed is gonna want alot of money

[Alvin Walton's Mohawk]

Pipe dreams! Besides, we have already met our quote for players from "The U"

[dent19]

you got jokes.....

[Skinsfan1311]

Ed Reed is a typical, selfish Cavein. Over the course of the next season, or two, Sean Taylor will have people saying "Ed who??"

[evucci]

Reed is a great guy and great team player. Word around the camp fire is that the Skins have contacted the Ravens about Reed's availability and some trade rumors started. Those discussion however broke down.

[36SKINS56]

lets get Jesus to play QB...ooh ooh ooh...here is a new thread: Barry Sanders out of retirement!

[inevitable]

Ed Reed is a typical, selfish Cavein. Over the course of the next season, or two, Sean Taylor will have people saying "Ed who??"

Ed Reed is the real deal. People won't forget his name for a long time to come. It's a damn shame that people like Roy Williams get mentioned in the same groupings as this guy.

As far as him being on the team, of course that would be awesome. But as metioned, theres no way we could afford it.

I hope he gets a good contract though, he's one of those dudes worth every penny you pay him.

[s0crates]

Ever since he sealed that game in Philly I have liked Ryan Clark. I also like Pierson and Bowen as reserves. Of course I like Taylor too. Come to think of it, I think we are about set on safeties (provided, of course, that Sean Taylor is not in jail next year).

[dent19]

2nd thoughts>>>>>>
if we can get him for a good price then hell yeah. with Taylor and Reed, nobody will dare cross the middle. No Taylor with Reed= Push.

[herrmag]

Not unrealistic if ST ends up in...well.....Actually, it is unrealistic. ST is not getting the money. So, let's all pray ST isn't guilty of the accusations (notice I said "not guilty of accusations" and not "found guilty"). I'm one of the few that believes if he did something stupid, he deserves the 3 years (obviously not 46 years).

I agree, wholeheartedly, that Reed is the real deal. He's a ball-hawking beast. I know that no one will forget his name..(I couldn't find the smart-ass smiley)...but Sean Taylor will be the premier safety in the league and will surpass Reed as the best........IMHO, of course!

[kwitt]

I think this is a great idea. We could have Reed and ST as our starters and maybe there is some way we could pry Roy Williams from Dallas as a reserve for us. :40oz:

[sknsrbck26]

I woul dto see him on our team simply because of what is happening to S.T. he would easily take over for Sean.

[SkinsNeverDie]

Ed Reed will want Champ money...possibly more. I cannot see us being able to afford that at all. No way no how. Of course our D would be absolutely sick! But those are just dreams that are slowly fading away...

[the burgundy and gold]

Trade Arrington and Ramsey for Lewis, Reed, and the Ravens first rounder.

I don't see that one happening, i hope you were joking
