Vick Honored in Baltimore
by Bruce Raffel on Mar 11, 2010 1:00 PM EST

Michael Vick was in Baltimore Tuesday evening along with representatives of every NFL team as part of the 32nd Annual Ed Block Courage Awards, held at Martin's West Caterers in Baltimore, Maryland. The awards honor a player on each team who exemplifies the courageous attitude that would make the former longtime trainer of the Baltimore Colts proud as he watches from heaven above as his name and legacy continues to be remembered.
Dawan Landry was voted to represent the Baltimore Ravens, based on his return from a serious head injury that ended his season in 2008.
Vick was voted as the representative and recipient by his teammates on the Philadelphia Eagles (see article here) and therefore was the most visible player at the event based on the dog-abuse issues that he was involved in over the past four years. That brought out all the animal rights activists that protested his receiving an award based on courage after the wrongs he had done.

Mock Drafts Have Changed
by Bruce Raffel on Mar 11, 2010 7:00 AM EST

After the recent flurry of free agent signings and trades, the Mock Drafts around the internet and on TV have changed a bunch. With the Baltimore Ravens trading for WR Anquan Boldin, the chance that they use their first round draft pick on a wide receiver has lessened considerably. They had a visit from former Indianapolis Colts CB Marlin Jackson and although he left without signing a contract and is visiting other teams, if he was to sign, that might also limit the chance that the
That leaves either the defensive end or tight end as what appears to be the teams' biggest needs at this point. However, a lot can and will change, not only for the Ravens, but for the rest of the NFL, prior to the draft.

Ravens Re-sign WR Derrick Mason to Two Year Deal
"We know exactly what we're getting with Derrick and that's production. Every Ravens fan knows what Derrick brings to this team. It's reliability, toughness, leadership, the fight to win, the want of the ball in the clutch times. He has a two-year history with Joe that says 'we know how to produce together.' They are on the same page." - Ozzie Newsome
Behind the Scenes at a NFL Pro Day....sort of

Now that the 2010 NFL Combine has concluded, this is the time of the year when all the Division 1 school's pro days begin. Today at University of Maryland, the few players that are looking to be drafted this year worked out in front NFL scouts from all over the country. The conditioning drills such as 40 times and other cone drills were held earlier in the day and I was not able to attend them because of classes.
However, I did get a chance to sneak over to the practice field to catch the actual football drills. Unfortunately I only caught about the last 15 minutes of the Pro Day workouts, but I did catch a glimpse of projected first round pick, Tackle Bruce Campbell.
Here are a few notes, pictures and videos I took away from the little bit I saw after the jump.

Boldin Press Conference Transcript
by Bruce Raffel on Mar 10, 2010 1:00 PM EST

Read the entire transcript of yesterday's Press Conference when the Baltimore Ravens introduced newly acquired WR Anquan Boldin to the assembled media at the team's headquarters at One Winning Drive in Owings Mills.
Specifically, check out the 12th question after Boldin's opening statement, as this was the one I blurted out when I finally found an opening to get one out there to represent Baltimore Beatdown.

College "Pro Days" Great Opportunities
by Bruce Raffel on Mar 10, 2010 9:29 AM EST

(NOTE: This story was originally posted at the time of the Boldin trade, so it seemed to be lost in the big news.)
Only a specific group of players are invited to take part in the NFL Scouting Combine each year in Indianapolis. Some players go there to workout in the weight room, run 40 yard dashes and jump high and far, but then choose to skip over the actual football drills, such as running patterns, throwing passes, etc. They either want their body of work over the course of their college career to stand as their proof of abilities, or they want to wait to bring the scouts and coaches to their respective colleges to show off on their own "Pro Day" along with the rest of their eligible teammates.
Starting this week, schools will be opening their campuses and players will be ready for the onslaught of the coaches and scouts that will flock there to usually see one or two players from that specific school. However, it is also a great opportunity for those lesser known guys to step up and open some eyes. There always is a few kids who get noticed this way and end up making an NFL roster that might otherwise fall between the cracks of obscurity.

Troy Smith Saga Continues
by Bruce Raffel on Mar 9, 2010 8:45 AM EST
66 comments
While Baltimore Ravens backup quarterback Troy Smith is staying mum on the topic, his agent seems happy to keep his name in the news of the day. Smith's agent, Ralph Cindrich, has been quoted as saying that Troy wants to be traded to the Cleveland Browns so bad that he "would crawl from Baltimore right now to play for Cleveland."
Unfortunately, the Browns recent acquisition of former Seattle QB Seneca Wallace for an undisclosed 2011 draft pick all but assures Troy that he will not be "crawling" back to Cleveland any time soon, unless of course, his car runs out of gas and no one stops to give him a ride.

Alright, so it's been a couple of days since my last Beatdown Daily, but that is only because of a dry news weekend. A couple of things have happened since Friday and a lot of it is Steelers-flavored. But I digress. Here is the next installment in Beatdown Daily!
Free Agency:
-Steelers sign Antwaan Randle El.
-Steelers sign Ryan Clark (who was shunned with open arms after saying Miami was a "perfect fit")
-Jaguars sign Aaron Kampman
-Jason Avant signs five year extension with Eagles (I wanted him....)
-Eagles trade Reggie Brown to Buccaneers for a sixth round pick.
-Raiders release Javon Walker
-Ditto with Greg Ellis
-Browns trade for QB Senaca Wallace
-T.O. (Team Obliterater) and Antonio Bryant to visit Bengals this week.
Draft News:
-Tebow works out for Bills, Seahawks this week.
Joke of the Day:
Ben Roethlisberger uses the same lawyer Ray Lewis used in the 2001 trial to help get him off of the hook for his rape accusations.
