The secret is to key on him at the line of schrimage. Thus his production drop in the last half of last season, into the playoffs where he did not contribute like he should have. Seven million for someone who is going to be just average unless he can figure out a way to over come the way the league is defending him, that’s a nice payday and he should be grateful.

Ray Rice for 2 years for only $16 million is a good deal, and chances are he won’t be worth much more after 2 years anyway. The Ravens will ride this donkey until it’s legs give out and then take it behind the barn and blow it away, and all for a great price.

This is how the Ravens work, and if they deem you worthy of the franchise tag you will get a long term deal from the team.

Look no further than C-Mac and Suggs (forgot if Ogden and Lewis were ever tagged, if they were add them to the two above) both played years under the tag and eventually got their long term deals. Ray Rice will get his, and it’ll be in line with what the market dictates, not what Rice and his agent dictate. Either way Rice will get his long term deal eventually.

That being said Ray Rice has been a huge portion of their offense the last few years.

The Ravens go 8-8 this year.
