Cut WR Torrey Smith, BAL, (527/2) - *** CLAIMED ***

Bounty Hunter · October 27th, 2014, 12:42 PM

The Ravens seem to only use this guy to draw coverage away from other WR's.
I have Allen Robinson on my Taxi Squad and the JAGs actually throw to him.

I just don't think he's worth the 572 salary for next year unless the Ravens let him walk.

Steve Smith has taken away a lot of his catches.

I hear you on the hard cap cuts... I'm seriously debating cutting my highest paid player before Friday.

Preds · October 27th, 2014, 12:52 PM

Oh, and the Preds will put in a claim on Torrey, insurance for Smith.

Bounty Hunter · October 27th, 2014, 01:06 PM

Wasn't expecting anyone to put in a claim. Figured a small bidding battle on the FA market.

Preds · October 27th, 2014, 01:21 PM

Yeah he's probably overpaid for his production, but considering I have his partner through next year as well putting in a claim in my case seems reasonable (at least to me).

Preds · October 28th, 2014, 01:25 PM

The Preds welcome Torrey aboard.

With MJDs cut yesterday we should have an open roster slot to accommodate him and cap is fine.

Claimed.

Should have probably tried placing a claim on him myself. This could be a GREAT waiver claim, Mike!

Pairing him with Steve Smith for this year and next just seems to make sense. Two explosive WR's on decent contract terms, and if one gets hurt the other should excel further.

The only way Torrey will excel is for the Ravens to change the way they use him. Taking on double coverage deep 90% of the time is wasting his talent. Good for other WRs not good for T Smith.
