Sun, 13 May 2012 11:16:07 -0700 Baltimore Ravens RB Ray Rice said he is not upset that the team drafted RB Bernard Pierce because he knows one running back can't do it all in the NFL now and it is good to have two running backs.

Wed, 04 Apr 2012 12:15:16 -0700 Baltimore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome said he agreed that franchise free-agent RB Ray Rice outplayed his rookie contract. However, Newsome hinted Rice should be happy with the $7.7 million tag. "From where he was to where we've put the franchise tag on him, that's a significant increase," Newsome said.
Tue, 03 Apr 2012 12:21:55 -0700 Baltimore Ravens franchise free-agent RB Ray Rice hopes to be able to work out in the team's offseason program that starts April 16, but he has yet to sign his $7.7 million franchise tender. "I think progress is being made," Rice said. "It's one of those things. I didn't set the bar for what running backs get. Obviously, they got what they deserved. I played my contract out. I took the franchise tag. What it's going to do is buy time, and hopefully we come out with a number that's fair to both sides. But at the same time, the number was set. It wasn't set by me."
Mon, 02 Apr 2012 07:15:03 -0700 The Baltimore Ravens are currently just $1.7 million under the salary cap.

Sat, 31 Mar 2012 19:42:51 -0700 Baltimore Ravens RB Anthony Allen is in the mix to compete for the primary backup job behind RB Ray Rice following the retirement of RB Ricky Williams. Allen is confident he knows the system, protections, lines and passes, even though he barely played last season. "(Anthony) goes from third (running back to) potentially No. 1 if something happens," head coach John Harbaugh said. "Every backup player is an injury away, a play away from being the guy. We think a lot of him, we think a lot of (RB Damien Berry). We think they're going to have very good seasons, but we've got to look at some insurance, too. We've got to have more than two running backs on our roster, so we'll add some guys."
Fri, 02 Mar 2012 23:24:51 -0800 Baltimore Ravens RB Ray Rice's franchise tag will be worth roughly $7.7 million for 2012, which is a big jump from the $600,000 he made in 2011. The Ravens can work toward signing him to a long-term deal moving forward, but it remains to be seen how Rice will react to the tag. He could opt to skip offseason minicamps if a new long-term deal isn't in place. Rice takes his leadership role with the team seriously, but could fall to the pressure of his agent, Todd France, who may advise him that he loses leverage by participating in camp workouts.

"I would be surprised, just knowing Ray and I know how much he loves football," Harbaugh said. "I think he understands there's not leverage to be gained by doing that. Guys who've done that haven't come out and played well. That would never be the way to get a contract here. That's not how the Ravens have operated."
