Jeez, it's not like I expect this to happen, but if the Ravens really want to give up Stanley and a one for Ngakoue and a three, hell yes I'm all over that.
It has to be higher than a 3rd they should get in compensation if he signs somewhere else.
If they don't think they will resign him, it would make sense to trade him. It also would signal the end of the season though, so I doubt they want to do that. Sent from my SM-T820 using Tapatalk We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

I'd probably do that as well, since really good LT's are as rare as getting dealt a royal flush. I just know Baltimore would never do such a deal. Heck, I'd do just about any deal that would land us a franchise LT.
Just wondering if any of you remember the times Yannick Ngakoue has gone up against Ronnie Stanley.
Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!

Ronnie Stanley may lose some match ups to Ngakoue, but as a whole, he is one of the best LT's in the NFL. Tony Boselli was the best LT of all time IMO. In 7 seasons as a Jaguar, he gave up only 15.5 sacks, but I remember when he lost some match ups with Bruce Smith. That doesn't make him any any less of a phenom. Sometimes you go up against really good opponents and they get the better of you. As long as you are consistently good, that's all that matters and Stanley is consistently good.

Boselli had three matchups against Bruce Smith. He lost one-the last one in 1998, when the Jaguars were down to their 5th RB due to injury. Je gave up one sack. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/b...280buf.htm https://www.pro-football-reference.com/b...140buf.htm https://www.pro-football-reference.com/b...180buf.htm Ronnie Stanley is no Boselli. Not even close! Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!

And I'm pretty sure that's Bullseye's entire point... People think of Stanley as one of the best young LTs in the league, yet Ngakoue has gotten the better of him.. Basically saying... You NEVER trade away your young great players when they're just now going into their physical prime and are a huge building block going forward.. Which is exactly what Ngakoue is.

Stanley is merely one of the better LT's in the NFL today. Boselli was the GOAT. I'm just saying everyone has off days and can face that one guy or two that can get the best of you, but as long as you remain consistent throughout the season, that's all that matters.

I would consider Stanley as the same kind of building block and just as valuable, just at another position. I don't wanna trade Ngakoue, but if you dangle one of the best young LT's in the NFL in front of me, I'd be very tempted to make a deal, since that is a particular area of weakness for us.

I kinda lost it when you brought Boselli into the conversation, even though you weren't making a comparison. LOL I'm just not a huge Ronnie Stanley fan, and we have a guy at a premium position in Yannick Ngakoue who abused him who remains unsigned. Worst to 1st. Curse Reversed!

These players are not just chess pieces. They are real human beings, and you can't just trade them willy-nilly without affecting team morale. Jalen Ramsey was a different situation, but to trade away good young players like Ngakoue? For what purpose? I don't get it.

Forget about trading Yannick. Sign him to a new deal ASAP. Pass rushers like him don't grow on trees and he may have been their best draft pick ever as far as value (3rd round) is concerned.
I do not foresee this organization letting Yann out the door in any way , shape, or form. At this point they will even pay a little more or offer a longer deal than they wanted to. Especially considering that they have him so inexpensively this year. He will get paid and the Jags will be the ones that do it. It will be e very wise decision because he is the epitome of a prime example of what you want your players to be.
Looking to troll? Don't bother, we supply our own.
If Mike Ditka was in Baltimore and offered up a Ricky Williams type trade you all know you'd take it.
