Marshall to Baltimore?


"Pro Football Talk reveals that "rumors are flying in some league circles" that disgruntled wide receiver Brandon Marshall could be traded to the Baltimore Ravens.
Marshall, who might be fined around $35,000 for skipping Denver Broncos minicamp over the weekend, will draw quite a bit of interest if he is officially placed on the block as Jay Cutler was earlier this offseason. But, as The Denver Post notes, other wide receivers with more extensive track records have asked for a trade this offseason and nothing has happened. If a trade is sought, the usual suspects -- the Chicago Bears, New York Jets, New York Giants and Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- could also come calling (ESPN)."

The Broncos are caving much like they caved to Cutler, but to be honest in the long run this could all work out for them. Obviously they will be looking for draft picks in return for Marshall. They already got a ton of those in the Cutler trade, so they really could be stacked. With Orton at QB they aren't going anywhere with or without Marshall. I think Marshall is just another receiver that will have too many off the field problem to be a productive WR for a long time. He is nasty now, but we have seen in the past that these types of players usually self destruct. The main thing is that the Broncos stick by there coach, and in the end this could all work out.

Now, Baltimore does interest me, because they still could use a big play WR. I also think they might have a locker room that will hold him down and not let him get out of control. We will see, but I believe if this got done Ray Lewis would be all over this guy...
