Aaron Wilson of the Carroll County Times hears the "clock is ticking" for the Ravens to sign free agent WR Malcom Floyd.
The Ravens presumably have an offer out to Floyd's agent, who was asking for the moon early in free agency. Floyd's decision could turn out to have major repercussions for the Ravens offense, as the fallback plan appears to be re-signing a swiftly declinging Derrick Mason while hoping raw rookie Torrey Smith (hamstring) is ready to make an early-season impact. Per Wilson, Floyd's other suitors are the Vikings, Cardinals, Panthers, and Raiders.

1WinningDrive RT @RavenFanatic19: (mink) do you see kindle starting opp. Suggs? how's he looking? > Awesome, but J.J. is starter. Kindle rush specialist

I think I'd rather Ozzie go after Malcolm Floyd than Osi and then gamble that Kindle will be the second pass rusher.

I'm a little worried about our receiving core. I know Ozzie will do something though.

apparently floyd should choose and offer soon.
pls sum
