papasmurfbell Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/03/24/report-ravens-hoping-to-sign-torrey-smith-to-extension/ Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith has one season left on his contract.Owner Steve Bisciotti wants to fix that.According to Matt Zenitz of the Carroll CountyTimes, Bisciotti indicated Monday that he wants to get a new deal done with Smith — and preferably before the draft.Zenitz also reports that the Ravens and Smith’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, will meet at the NFL meetings in Orlando. Bisciotti is hopeful a pact can be reached with Smith in the near future, the Times reported.The 25-year-old Smith set career-highs in catches (65) and yards (1,128) in 2013. Possessing excellent speed, Smith would attract quite a bit of interest if he were to test the market next year.However, it appears the Ravens want to keep the University of Maryland product in the fold for years to come.Don't try do.

RavenousBG Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I'm with you P. I'm glad they are making it a priority but they need to get it done. Don't let him get to the open market at all. Quote
cravnravn Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 No brainer here he gets to the open market he's gone. Quote

papasmurfbell Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 Did the Ravens sign Joe a yr out? Quote
oldno82 Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Did the Ravens sign Joe a yr out?No, but I sure wouldn't be feeling comfy as a Bengals fan with Brown as the owner. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 Dalton should be cheaper if they want to keep him. Quote
RavenousBG Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Cheaper to get Torrey now and yeah it's going to cost more than 7 mil a yr. He's trending up. 5 yrs 42 mil or somewhere in the neighborhood Quote
