One of the first deals ESPN's Adam Schefter reported once 4 p.m. rolled around had a Ravens tie-in.
And it was one that's been expected for some time.
Defensive tackle Arthur Jones will be leaving Baltimore to play for the Indianapolis Colts. The former fifth-round pick deserved a big contract and it appears he's getting his due with his new team.

It would have taken a miracle for the Ravens to be able to bring Jones back. It just wasn't in the cards for either party. And if there was any doubt, Jones made it clear on twitter earlier today that he wasn't returning to Baltimore.
