According to Jason LaCanfora of the NFL Network, Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh has been texting potential undrafted free agents.  He explains to the players that their  names have come up in draft meetings and let’s them know that the Ravens would like to figure out a way to bring them in.  Harbaugh then tells them to feel free to call with any questions they might have. Other teams do things that are very similar to Harbaugh and the Ravens.  Both the Eagles and now the Colts, send out letters to potential undrafted free agents expressing their interest. In the NFL it’s all about trying to stay ahead of the competition and I’m sure every team does something to lure undrafted free agents.

  • Ravens should bring Defensive End/Offensive Guard, Bobby Greenwood to Camp to join other Alabama grads. Tough, hard working, no nonsense, Alabama '09 defensive end. Would be a major asset to Ravens. He is ready to go.
