[News] Baltimore Ravens Free Agency Rumor Mill

[First_Impression]

But right above it says right above "based upon owner-approved CBA" and then it says:

Unrestricted Free Agents (players with six or more years' service time at the end of a contract, can be signed elsewhere with no compensation to player's old team)

Restricted Free Agents (players with three, four or five years' service time at the end of a contract, must be tendered offer sheet by March 4, Ravens have seven days to match)

[CapoRocky]

Roth, haha, I'd much rather have Johnson or Edwards in there. If we are going to improve than we should be looking at the best possible players at each position. Tell me that Roth will be better than the other backups from last year.

[BelAirRavensFan1]

Forget Roth. If you can't get a better pass rusher, I say spend the money on resigning both Carr and Wilson or use it for my boy Asomugha. No sense in signing an average pass rusher b/c we already have some on the team. GO BIG OR GO HOME.

[Purple&Black]

if we try for an olb i say manny lawson, however that should not be our first move. our first move should be resign our own guys. right now yanda is of most importance bc if we let him go to the redskins i may punch the next redskin fan i see in the face.

[Ravensstrike4424]

we need to sign these players S Dawan Landry unless we can get a better one, FB Le'Ron McClain, DT Haloti Ngata,CB Fabian Washington, CB Josh Wilson.

[SmashMouth7]

When we talk free agency we have to think outside the box, our own guys is a no brainer, lets think new additions.
Ngata: in the workings
Yanda: biggest must return
Wilson: must return, the fans have spoken as well as he play
everybody else is replacable, Oz knos best kind of thing.

[The_Legacy]

ok heres my take we need a safety for back up an OLB and there are two undrafts that are high level great overall players
Mark Herzlich
DeAndre McDaniel
we could even go with a few back ups at DT if needed like......Ian Williams 4 year starter great player

[frangecko112]

i really wish the ravens sign Mark Herzlic....it was a mistake not to take this guy in the draft.

[The_Legacy]

and we NEED to re sign Le'Ron McClain its dont a if or maybe

[The_Legacy]

@frangecko112 couldnt have said it better myself this guy is a workout warrior and has tremendous heart....one word.... RAVEN

[frangecko112]

maybe (if the ravens have a chance) joe flacco can get a new contract extension.....he deserves it for being the best QB the ravens ever had

[Raven in ATL]

honestly im sure getting drafted is one of the most proudest moments for a player, but im kinda happy Herzlic didnt get drafted, i think it has upped his status. the lockout has allowed teams to realized they might have messed up not drafting a guy like him on their team. and this also allows Herzlic to pick and choose which team he wants to sign with. i hope he decides to sign with our Ravens, this kids is class thru and thru!!!

[The_Legacy]

i do really like this kid herzlic i want nothing more then to see him and the SURGE lighting it up

[Dorsey E. Hairston II]

I can already tell this may be the most exciting week or so of football transactions ever. let the bidding begin!

[Raven112]

Mark Herzlich isnt fast enough to be on our defense, and hopefully goodell comes back with a vengence and suspends hines ward and harrison for 2 games

[BmoreKing]

"Mark Herzlich isnt fast enough to be on our defense, and hopefully goodell comes back with a vengence and suspends hines ward and harrison for 2 games"

We never had a overly fast defense, just a really aggressive and confusing one.

[ravensnj]

Ray Edwards...need meat at de

[mills]

herzlich just signed with the giants :/

[Go Ravens Give Em Da Bird]

PLEASE DO NOT SIGN SANTONIO HOLMES. We don't need him. An ex-steeler and ex-jet...no thanks. I reall y would hate to see a headline saying we signed him. I hope that speculation is wrong.

[Blazin Ravens]

no holmes. and were did you hear Herzlich is on the giants?

Ray Edwards is nowhere near big enough to play 3-4 DE.

[GeeWallee]

Most important is to re-sign Yanda !!! Not too sure we can afford Asomugha, so here is my list for FAs......Re-sign McClain, Bulger and Josh Wilson and go after Santonio Holmes, Sidney Rice , Steve Smith and Ike Taylor. Yeah, I know....a Steeler......lol I think someone else will offer Landry a large contract. Carr wants to start and therefor "starter's money". Then we'll see if the FO want to get Mason, Heap and Gregg back. Willis would have to totally restructure to stay. I'd like him to stay for another 2 or 3 more years, but I don't think it's a doable situation.

[ellicottraven]

Disappointed in Herzlich. He chose the Giants over the opportunity to play alongside Ray Lewis? Bad judgment... I instantly unfollowed him on twitter to show displeasure in my own little way.

That's showing him,! Teach him not to come to BMORE. I kid I kid lol

[Nick04263]

well if that shows his decision making skills, maybe he did us a favor. :)

[GeeWallee]

It will still be an uphill road for Herzlich, no matter who signs him. Wish him the best !!

Past tense....hes a Giant

[burnbigben]

Why would we go for Matt Roth, he's NOT an upgrade over JJ
