TBird Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Ozzie kept his word and looked for more CBs and signed Arringtonto 3 year deal. He'sjust a backup and a slot guy at best but Ravens are better prepared nowthan a year ago with depth. Most guys are stoked about that. NE let him go for CAP space and togo with youth movement. He's the best backup we have now. www.baltimoreravens.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thundercleetz Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 http://www.foxsports.com/nfl/story/giants-should-sign-kyle-arrington-to-fill-nickel-cb-void-051215 More importantly, Arrington has quietly been productive every season as the Patriots' nickel. According to Pro Football Focus, an independent website that charts and grades individual players on a per-snap basis, Arrington's has put together three very productive seasons at the nickel in 2011, 2013 and 2014. In 2013, he finished ranked as PFF's 21st-best cornerback overall out of 110 qualifiers. Last season, he finished as their 36th-best overall out of 108 qualifiers. One area of Arrington's game that has never dropped off is his ability to rush the passer from the slot. Over the last three seasons, Arrington has graded out as one of PFF's 20 best cornerbacks in pass rush grade. He has racked up five sacks over the last three seasons.http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000492631/article/kyle-arrington-signs-threeyear-contract-with-ravens Arrington will step into Baltimore's slot corner role, a job he performed well for most of his run with the Patriots. Arrington, 29, had particular success against T.Y. Hilton, shutting down the Colts star in two meetings last year, including the AFC Championship Game.

oldno82 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Amazing! He fell into our needy lap and Ozzie jumped on it. Now, if we can just stay healthy we'll be alright in the secondary. Still might want to pick up another vet if one becomes available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
