Flacco doesn’t sound thrilled about addition of Bulger

The Baltimore Ravens really strengthened their QB situation when they added former St. Louis Rams QB Marc Bulger. Troy Smith and John Beck have really never shown anything, and we’d have to think that throwing Bulger into the mix makes for a better situation should starter Joe Flacco go down. But not everyone is excited [...]

Ravens sign Shayne Graham

The Baltimore Ravens had their share of kicking woes last season. They still have Billy Cundiff on the roster, but the major problem with that is having Billy Cundiff on the roster. So the Ravens attempted to solve their kicking issues by signing former Cincinnati Bengal Shayne Graham. Graham fell out of favor in Cincy [...]

Most Baltimore Ravens fans are wondering if Ed Reed is going to retire or not.  With the recent rumors stating that two league sources confirmed with the Baltimore Sun that the Pro Bowl safety underwent a “procedure” in his hip area, it seems most likely he will not.

What’s next for Derrick Mason?

The Baltimore Ravens and wide receiver Derrick Mason were not able to agree on a two-year deal before free agency started on Friday. The Ravens wanted to retain him and Mason wanted to come back, but no deal was struck.  Furthermore, it seems Mason has lost all his leverage after the Ravens traded for wide [...]

Ravens interested in Westbrook and T.O.?

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said recently that he would definitely be interested in soon-to-be former Philadelphia Eagles RB Brian Westbrook and not-yet-officially-released WR Terrell Owens. We don’t necessarily see a fit for Westbrook, so he could just be talking in an attempt to get someone else to pay more than they otherwise would [...]

Cardinals finally dealing Boldin?

Gregg Rosenthal from PFT reports from the NFL Combine that the word on the street is that the Arizona Cardinals are finally going to trade WR Anquan Boldin.

Ravens sticking with McGahee?

According to NFL Networks’s Jason La Canfora, the Baltimore Ravens are fine keeping RB Willis McGahee at his $3.6 million salary next year. Despite his 14 TD’s last year, people are still thinking that he’ll be out of town this season. “Ravens committed to retaining RB Willis McGahee despite his $3.6M salary and complimentary role.

Stallworth to the Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens have signed WR Donte Stallworth to a one-year, $900,000 contract. The move comes just nine days after he was reinstated following a one-year suspension for running over Mario Reyes and killing him while driving under the influence. The move makes perfect sense for the Ravens. It’s a low-risk move and gives QB [...]

Ravens want to upgrade wide receiver through draft?

A team source tells the Baltimore Sun that the Ravens would prefer to upgrade their wide receiver position through the draft as opposed to a trade or free agency. On one hand this is surprising because the Ravens stink at drafting wide receivers. On the other hand, there isn’t much out there unless they want [...]

Ravens thrilled with L.J.

The Baltimore Ravens signed former Philadelphia Eagles TE L.J. Smith to a one-year contract last offseason and have to be enthralled with the results.

According to the Baltimore Sun, a woman believed to be Baltimore Ravens DE Terrell Suggs’ girlfriend has taken out a restraining order against him.

It looks like the Baltimore Ravens will be sans the services of cornerback Fabian Washington for the rest of the year. He suffered a serious knee injury in Sunday’s loss to the Colts and while the extent isn’t known just yet, the Ravens are proceeding like he’s done. “It looks like he has an ACL [...]

Ayanbadejo supports same-sex marriage

We commend Baltimore Ravens LB Brendan Ayanbadejo for coming out and supporting same-sex marriage, while others continue to come with stupid reasons why gay couples shouldn’t be allowed to marry. He says in something he wrote somewhere, “we will look back in 10, 20, 30 years and be amazed that gays and lesbians did not [...]
