whoa...nice

[sameoldbull]

I can't wait to hear the numbers. A great signing if the price is right (and I think it will be - it's Ozzie!)

[SecretAgentMan]

Great Player....

Moves Ngata to NT.
Provides solid pass rush.
Good run defender.

[bMore Heathen]

Nice... Finally some GOOD news!!!! Details ASAP!!!!

[SideStep77]

Finally, some good news. That will help us at least. Still got some work to do though.

[Ed_Reed20]

Well done, FO.

[bravensfan52]

if we got him for 2-3 a year great pick up

[BALTIMOREFLACCO]

Good signing

[Gordo52]

Great sign. Love it

[Dubs]

party!!!

Great signing...hopefully the contract is not huge

[Ravenseconbeast]

More to come...

i wodner how much the deal was.

[RavensNo1Fan1]

The OZ always comes through. There is one draft decision put to rest. On to ILB...

[ravensfan160]

That last time we singed a 30 something 5 technique that some people may have though was past his prime worked out pretty well for us. Remember Trevor Pryce?

I love this signing. It is just the type of smart move Ozzie makes every year. We now have some flexibility heading into the draft with how we approach our d-line.

[bravensfan52]

now we have to get a LB in FA and the 1st 2 rounds of the draft

[Cville-Raven]

Now I hope we cant bring in a veteran guy like Harrison. A healthy Harrison , Suggs, and Upshaw is a good OLB core.

[pitchblack_20]

Boy you shoulda known by now "Ozzie Duz It"

[BMORE_96]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I am so happy. This means cody is expendable with some added draft depth. Depending on cap, I see ravens getting linebacker.
Then, using draft to get a wide receiver(tavon austin cross your fingers) Consolation prize(justin hunter)

Draft is deep fellas.

[503_ravens_fan]

i just ran around my house screaming. great signing. this dude is beast. will command double teams all day long, freeing up some pass rushers and kills the run game... we needed a dude like this.

[GrimCoconut]

I LOVE THIS! Yes!!! Yes!!! Great move!!! I love it. I can't say how great this is. Cut? No comp pick lost? Quality player? All CHECK! Great signing, Ravens! Welcome to the Ravens, Canty! You got ngata chance & canty get away. Haha.

I would move Art Jones to NT.

[itsaamiracle]

Great signing! This is a HUGE upgrade over Cody and Kemo.

Really interested to see the contract details.

He's an effective who should provide depth.

Ngata
Jones
Canty
McPhee
Cody

Looks solid so far we find more talent.

[cobrajet]

I think he would be an upgrade to Kemo and Cody so I like this if the price was right. I hope it was.

Is Ray Maualuga still available? I think that would be a good another good signing.

[b]Chris Canty[/b] gets $[b]8M[/b] over 3 years, with $2.[b]8M[/b] guarantee in Baltimore.

That's what we call right player, right price. Great signing.

Absolutely! That's bargin bin at the start of FA

[Yatagarasu]

Sounds like a Cory Redding type signing.

I'm so curious how our front 3 (or 4) will look like. Can Art play NT or will we put Haloti at NT permanently? or are we going to a 4-3? Soooo many questions!

[bravensfan52]

CALLED IT

at 2.8 mil Great signing

[dirtybird10]

This is a really nice move, and a classic Ozzie! Under the radar, quality pickup for what I am assuming is a very reasonable price.
