The Ravens have made perhaps their biggest move of the offseason.

The team reached an agreement on a four-year contract extension with cornerback Jimmy Smith Tuesday afternoon, locking him up to a long-term deal before he enters the final year of his rookie contract. Smith is now signed through the 2019 season.

“I’m tremendously happy,” Smith said minutes after reaching the deal. “I plan on getting rings.”

The contract is reportedly worth up to $48 million over the five years, … Read More »

Best move: Sticking with their board.
