The Ravens for some odd reason signed Trent Richardson

Richardson was actually a good signing by my secondary NFL team. Let me explain why.

Richardson has all the physical tools to be a good RB. His biggest problem is obviously his lack of vision in the line/hole. That can be easily fixed. This is stuff High School RBs learn. If he hits the film room with him not getting a ton of carries for his first few seasons. His body is still in good shape. The Ravens would not've sign him unless they believe he can be coached up. He could be a good steal for the Ravens.

One has to wonder how he didn't develop those skills in high school though. Some people are just not bright bulbs.

Maybe he watched some games and picked up a few tips on how to play his position. 

 

Playing Madden does wonders for GM wannabes.

They would be better off with Ray Rice production-wise.

wtf is a secondary NFL team?

 

btw, Richardson was in a FF commercial a few years ago, so he has to be good.

Monumental bust

Just a body for camp. I can't see him making their 53-man roster when they've got Justin Forsett and Buck Allen as their top two backs pencilled in. Maybe he beats out Taliaferro (?), but i don't see Richardson making their final roster unless he's an absolute beast in preseason...

A secondary team is a term I use to cheer on another team in the same sport. Like in baseball my 2nd favorite team are the Braves. Behind the Red Sox. In hockey my 2nd favorite team are the Bruins behind the Hurricanes. UConn BBall behind UNC BBall. Sorry I confused you.

They're trying to pull a Gettlemagic move. Sign for cheap a first round vet who needs another chance & see if he can be coached up/schemed into better production. It's worth a shot.
