Roster

The Ravens list of Week 1 inactives for Sunday's game at Cincinnati includes K Rhys Lloyd, QB Troy Smith, WR Yamon Figurs, DB Ronnie Prude, RB Mike Anderson, LB Antwan Barnes, LB Prescott Burgess, DL Edgar Jones.

Ravens RB Cory Ross appeared in six games for Baltimore in 2007, mostly on special teams. His lone chance to run the ball came in the season finale against Pittsburgh, when he had 12 carries for 72 yards and a touchdown.

Ravens TE Lee Vickers appeared in eight games for the Ravens in 2007 with two starts. He had two catches for 4 yards on the season.

Ravens WR Matt Willis appeared in five games in 2007 and finished the year with one catch for 11 yards.

Ravens DB Samari Rolle had a rough season in 2007. He only played in six games with five starts after dealing with several injuries, including being diagnosed with epilepsy. He finished the year with 22 tackles (21 solo) and one interception.

Shoulder

Ravens WR Demetrius Williams appeared in nine games in 2007 with four starts. He had 20 catches for 290 yards in his second year in the NFL. Williams did not have a catch after Week 7 and dealt with ankle injuries the rest of the season.

Three days after his arrival in Baltimore, Ravens rookie QB Joe Flacco didn't seem dazed and confused, reports the Carroll County Times. The first-round draft pick maintained his composure throughout his first minicamp and delivered several crisp throws while undergoing a crash course in the playbook. "It's pretty cool, it's a lot of fun to learn something new every day," Flacco said Sunday after his fifth NFL practice. "There was a lot thrown at us, and I did the best job I could to absorb as much as I could. It was a good experience."

The Ravens signed DT J'Vonne Parker for Week 17 vs. Pittsburgh.

Baltimore WR Derrick Mason had a career season in 2007. Despite playing with three different quarterbacks in Steve McNair, Kyle Boller and Troy Smith, Mason had a career-high 103 catches. He also added 1,087 yards and five touchdowns.

Ravens DB Dawan Landry had 82 tackles (67 solo) in 2007, which was his second year in the NFL. He also added a sack. Landry, who had five interceptions in 2006, did not have any interceptions in 2007.

Ravens TE Todd Heap was held out of practice Sunday for precautionary reasons after being placed on injured reserve last season with a strained hamstring. "He's just rehabbing those hamstrings," coach John Harbaugh said. "There are certain issues he's got to strengthen and certain flexibility issues he's got. We do not want a reinjured hamstring."

Hamstring - Probable for the start of training camp

Ravens DB Derrick Martin totaled four tackles (all solo) and one interception during a Week 16 loss to the Seahawks. He now has 39 tackles and two interceptions.

Ravens LB Ray Lewis had another stellar year in 2007. He finished with 120 tackles (82 solo), one defensive touchdown, two interceptions, two sacks, one fumble recovery and two forced fumbles. He only played in 14 games, missing the final two games with a back injury.

Ravens TE Daniel Wilcox could have played a significant role in the offense in 2007 with Todd Heap only playing in six games due to injury. Instead, Wilcox also was hurt for most of the season and only played in five games. He finished the year with six catches for 18 yards and a touchdown.

Ravens DB Chris McAlister went through a rough season in 2007. He only played in eight games due to an injured knee and finished the season on injured reserve. His final stats were 19 tackles (17 solo) and one interception.

Knee - Questionable for the start of 2008 training camp

The Carroll County Times reports that the Ravens cut DT Kenny King after he failed an offseason physical. He missed the 2007 season with injuries.

Safety Jim Leonhard and reserve running back Shaud Williams will become free agents on Friday after the Bills elected not to issue qualifying offers to retain their rights.

On Saturday, the Ravens placed safety Gerome Sapp on injured reserve with a thigh injury.

Thigh

Ravens RB Musa Smith enters the offseason as a free agent, and he will look to get increased carries somewhere. Smith, who started the final game of 2007 with Willis McGahee (ribs) out, finished the season with 75 carries for 264 yards and two touchdowns and 27 catches for 192 yards. In his lone start against Pittsburgh, Smith had 22 carries for 83 yards and a touchdown.

Ravens DL Justin Bannan totaled two tackles (all solo) and one sack during a Week 16 loss to the Seahawks. He now has 27 tackles and two sacks. His other sack came Oct. 14 against the Rams.

Ravens WR Mark Clayton had a down year in 2007. He entered his third year with a lot of hype following a breakout year in 2006 when he had 67 catches for 939 yards and five touchdowns. But in 2007, Clayton had only 48 catches for 531 yards and no touchdowns. Clayton had to deal with an ankle injury, which limited him most of the season, and shaky quarterback play from Steve McNair, Kyle Boller and Troy Smith.

Ravens RB Justin Green appeared in 15 games in 2007 but played mostly on special teams. He had no carries but caught two passes for 16 yards.

WWhen the Ravens drafted QB Joe Flacco with their first pick in the 2008 draft, it likely signaled the end of any regular playing time for second-year QB Troy Smith. Smith might get an opportunity to start in training camp, but it's expected that Kyle Boller will have the edge, and Flacco will also have a chance.

Ravens rookie LB Antwan Barnes, who attended Florida International and was born in Miami, picked up his second career sack when he took down Cleo Lemon in Baltimore's 22-16 overtime victory loss to the Dolphins in Week 15.

Ravens DL Trevor Pryce appeared in only five games with two starts in his first season with Baltimore after 10 years in Denver. Pryce finished the season on injured reserve with a torn pectoral muscle. His final stats werre 15 tackles (nine solo) and two sacks.
