The Ravens are likely to meet with the agent for Super Bowl Most Valuable Player quarterback Joe Flacco this weekend at the NFL scouting combine in Indianapolis. The details of the meeting are still being finalized. The Ravens haven't negotiated with agent Joe Linta since August when contract talks hit sticking points over guaranteed money, total value and structure. Now that Flacco's rookie contract has expired and he played a major role in engineering a Super Bowl victory over the San Francisco 49ers with three touchdowns and zero interceptions, the 2008 first-round draft pick's asking price has increased. Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti has said the Ravens offered to make Flacco among the top five compensated quarterbacks in the NFL before the start of this past season. Source: Baltimore Sun
