In somewhat of a surprising move, the Ravens signed wide receiver T.J. Houshmanzadeh on Monday.
The Ravens already bolstered their receiving corps this offseason with Anquan Boldin and Dante Stallworth, but signing Houshmanzadeh can't hurt either.
The best part about it may be that we can finally get rid of Mark Clayton. For whatever reason, the Ravens have been unable to draft and develop wide receivers. Clayton is another bust in a long line of them at that position.
According to the Baltimore Sun Clayton is in line to be traded or released. I'm not sure we would get anything of value in return for Clayton, but not sure he would have added any by being on this team. When Stallworth returns from his injury, I imagine Clayton would have been bumped down the depth chart.
I know the Ravens have taken a lot of heat over the years for their passing game (if you call it that some years) and rightfully so. Now, it's good to see that they finally have confidence in a passer and are doing whatever they can to give Joe Flacco the necessary tools to compete.
If the aging defense can hang on this season, the Ravens should be able to make a legit run at the Super Bowl in Dallas.
