titansfan Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 1 minute ago, rns90 said: Yeah like WTF. This happens in sports ALL THE TIME. Trades are contingent on the player passing the physical. Makes me wonder whether or not he watches any other sports at all. Yeah it’s uncomfortable for team and player involved but that’s sports Lol how often does this happen? You guys are not thinking (and what are you talking about-- i literally brought up a similar scenario in another sport on my post fool!) Physicals can be based on interpretation of the team. You guys are being naive if you think the Raiders aren't going to raise suspicion about why the Ravens backed out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This actually puts Baltimore in a bad spot. I think youre trying to lecture on the basic knowledge that all trades are pending physical? Duhhh. Prominent trades like this with a superstar already known to have a surgery or recovering from an injury very rarely if ever get renounced. Again the only similar case I can think of in recent history is the Lakers trade in the NBA last year. If Baltimore comes away with Hendrickson tomorrow then the suspicion will only rise... again everyone knew Crosby had surgery in January. Now obviously we aren't privy to his medical records but the initial report is a meniscus... that's super sketchy and if Baltimore turns around and signs Hendrickson tomorrow then I gurantee you'll be eating your words because this story will only grow.

No it won't. It will be Baltimore having to scramble bc their top trade target failed a physical. Its not sketchy at all.. not on Ravens' side. This idea that had buyer's remorse and backed out doesnt make any sense. The idea they traded for top edge and found out it he wasn't healthy- makes sense. You're creating an odd narrative. rns90, and ChemEngr79 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzTitan Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 The question is, did he really fail the physical or is this the plausible reason the Ravens used to back out of a deal they regret making. Not sure what sort of evidence has to support backing out if any (doubtful any is needed really). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys are being naive if you think the Raiders aren't going to raise suspicion about why the Ravens backed out Teams backing off on physicals issues ? All the time. I follow MLB a lot . You see prospects getting taken in and out of trades because one of the teams didn’t like what they saw on a physical . Here’s an NBA one from last year : Mark Williams (C Hornets) got traded to the Lakers last year . The Lakers didn’t like what they saw in the physical and it was recinded here. Nothing nefarious; Ravens didn’t like what they saw in the physical . Another team will assume the risk and won’t be bothered by what their own physical revealed Pragidealist 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ravens have to trade with other teams too after this. No one wants a rep of backing out or being a bad team to trade with . It’s bad for their business of improving their ball club.

I think im being smart to question it, and I think youre being a little ingenious to not question Baltimore here. Again, as I said before-- working in their favor is that they have backed out of free agency deals in the past for past physicals (not often, but they have precedent). Initial reports are meniscus which is healed in 3 months.. so i can only assume there was much more. But if it's just that then yes, this is fishy business by Baltimore. Crosby hates them too probably btw... luckily he signed an extension last year Edited March 11 by titansfan rns90 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvgJoe Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 I think the best part is the Raiders spent so much money thinking Crosby was off the books. Hopefully at least one of their deals falls apart.
