vmax Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Reports: Ravens Sign WR Steve SmithThe 34-year-old veteran is the tough, slot option the Ravens have been looking for. The Ravens wasted no time snatching up the wide receiver they’ve been looking for over the past year.A day after the Carolina Panthers released veteran wideout Steve Smith on Thursday afternoon, the Ravens agreed to terms with him on a contract, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. It is reportedly a three-year deal.http://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/article-1/Reports-Ravens-Sign-WR-Steve-Smith/b0036393-6872-4ceb-8cf2-67469af32d56 Quote
RavenousBG Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Got our man!!!! Now what's left under the cap and what do we do with it? Quote
vmax Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 I'm warming up to this deal. His age and mileage bother me, but the price is definitely right...and I think Steve is going to be highly motivated to make an impact.I like him in the slot. That is an upgrade.I like how physical he is and his "in game" attitude. Quote
Oldschool739 Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 According to Jason LaCanfora the deal is for 3 years, $10.5M and includes a $3.5M signing bonus. Quote
vmax Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) He sounds like a fine mild mannered man.... Scratch that. He's definitely going to remember it -- he told WFNZ in Charlotte that if he plays the Panthers next year "there's going to be blood and guts everywhere.""I want to make sure that whatever team I go to, wherever it happens to be, they're going to get the best, in shape, 35-year-old guy they could possibly get," Smith said. "And if that happens to run through Bank of America Stadium ... put your goggles on cause there's going to be blood and guts everywhere." Edited March 14, 2014 by vmax Quote

thesteelhurtin Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Did yinz sign his walker as well or does he get a Hoover round in the deal? 1 Quote
oldno82 Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 The price on the deal is quite good. The cap hit should be reasonable. Hope he holds up. He sure sounds fired up. Actually, this is the first move we've made to improve the team, A lot more is needed. Quote
RavenousBG Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Most other improvement will come thru the draft and any teams that have to make unfortunate or unforeseen cuts later. If there's a D smith type move out there, I'm sure the FO will pounce. 1 Quote
cravnravn Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 Did yinz sign his walker as well or does he get a Hoover round in the deal?No he'll steal Troys as he blows by him 2x a season Quote
