The Ravens have been transparent about their desire to re-sign cornerback Jimmy Smith this offseason. And now they’ve pulled it off.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter and the team’s Twitter account, the Ravens are re-signing Smith to a one-year contract worth up to $6 million.
At the NFL Scouting Combine, general manager Eric DeCosta said he wanted to re-sign Smith but expected him to evaluate his options on the open market.
Though Smith missed seven games last season, he allowed just 28-of-50 passes to be completed his way (56%) for 329 yards and no touchdowns.

The Ravens are re-signing defensive tackle Justin Ellis on a one-year deal, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
The Ravens originally signed Ellis late last season, prior to their Week 11 game, as some additional experienced depth.

The Ravens are set to sign former Rams defensive tackle Michael Brockers to a three-year contract. The deal is worth $30 million with $21 million guaranteed.
With Calais Campbell and now Brockers added to the defensive line, it appears as though the Ravens are moving forward without Michael Pierce.
Much like Pierce, Brockers’ production doesn’t really show up on the stat sheet. His three sacks and 63 combined tackles last season isn’t an accurate representation to what he means to a defensive line

After more than a month of speculation, the Ravens have officially traded tight end Hayden Hurst.
The Ravens have traded Hurst and a fourth-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft to the Falcons in exchange for a 2nd- and a fifth-round pick in 2020, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
With the emergence of tight end Mark Andrews last season as Baltimore’s best receiving threat and Nick Boyle as one of the best blocking tight ends, Hurst was ultimately third on the depth chart.
Hurst caught 30 passes for 349 yards and two touchdowns last season
