Lamar Jackson Looks To Be Given Time To Develop

They Took Who??? Teams That Confused Us by Drafting the Wrong Player
In 2017, it was the Bengals taking John Ross in the top 10. In 2016, it was the Jets deciding that Christian Hackenberg was worthy of a second round pick, and back in 2015 it was... Kevin White? Breshad Perriman? Regardless, it happens every year: teams fall in love with certain players and their fans […]

Ravens Take Hayden Hurst At No. 25 Overall
The Baltimore Ravens selected South Carolina tight end Hayden Hurst with the 25th overall pick of the 2018 NFL draft. Hurst was drafted in the 17th round by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2013. A Thor lookalike, Hurst is 6-foot-4 and could immediately make an impact in the passing game for Baltimore in 2018. He has […]
Dez Bryant Turned Down Deal With Ravens
Free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant turned down a multi-year offer from the Baltimore Ravens because he apparently prefers a one-year, prove-it deal, according to a source. Baltimore wouldn't have been the best landing spot for the aging receiver anyway after they added Michael Crabtree, John Brown and Willie Snead in free agency. Bryant may be […]

Ravens Signing Willie Snead
The New Orleans Saints aren't matching restricted free-agent wide receiver Willie Snead's offer sheet with the Baltimore Ravens, meaning he will sign with the Ravens, according to a source.

Ravens Out On Dez Bryant
The Baltimore Ravens are out on free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant after signing wideout Willie Snead.

Ravens May Be Moving On From Dez Bryant
With New Orleans Saints restricted free-agent Willie Snead expected to sign with the Baltimore Ravens, it would essentially end their interest in free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant.

Willie Snead Signs Offer Sheet With Ravens
New Orleans Saints restricted free-agent wide receiver Willie Snead is signing a two-year offer sheet on Friday with the Baltimore Ravens that is worth up to $10.4 million, according to a source.

Alex Collins Formally Signs With The Ravens
The Baltimore Ravens and running back Alex Collins took care of the technicality of signing a contract on Tuesday.

Baltimore Ravens Interested In Dez Bryant
The Baltimore Ravens are be interested in free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant, as they still wish to improve their receiving options.

Eric Decker Visiting With Ravens
Free-agent wide receiver Eric Decker is visiting with the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, according to a source.

The quarterback has only done "Camp Flacco" once in his 10-year career, however. Head coach John Harbaugh said last week that it was "critically important" for Flacco and his new […]
Just a Sophomore Slump - Players Entering Their Third Season Who Will Rebound in 2018
There are always players expected to break out in their second seasons who don't, for whatever reason.

I've looked back at the 2016 rookie class to find three players who haven't performed up to […]
Ravens Work Out Michael Floyd
The Baltimore Ravens worked out free-agent wide receiver Michael Floyd, according to a source. Since recording 1,000 yards receiving and five touchdowns with the Cardinals in 2013, his second year in the league, Floyd has been a disappointment and declined rapidly. Several off-field incidents haven't helped his cause, and he totaled just 10 catches for […]
Saints Host Benjamin Watson
The New Orleans Saints hosted free-agent Benjamin Watson for a visit, according to a league source. The Saints lost out in a possibly reunion with tight end Jimmy Graham, and Coby Fleener and Josh Hill currently sit at the top of their depth chart at the position.

Eagles Sign Mike Wallace
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed free agent wide receiver Mike Wallace to a one-year contract. Wallace will replace Torrey Smith as the Eagles deep threat.
