    Ravens release Chris Carr per kffl

    If true, Ravens save 2.5 million on the cap. Little surprised Foxworth and Evans were not first to go.

    They only save if they elect a June 1 designation. That means dead money in 2013.

    yea but no point cutting a guy for 600k, especially a solid CB, where depth is needed. I think they elect the June 1 date and carry the dead money next year to get that extra saving this year. The cap should go up and nulify that next year hopefully. 2.5 mil is over a 1/4 of RR franchise tag amount, it would help us tremendously. id give ben grubbs thats extra money all day!

    Seems like odd move, especially with Williams and Smiths surgery and Webb and Williams as RFA's why not wait til June?

    "Bmore Ravens Fan Page
    Also from Aaron Wilson- I'm told that the Ravens also plan to cut WR Lee Evans and CB Domonique Foxworth. No surprises there."



    "Bmore Ravens Fan Page
    From Aaron Wilson- Per a league source. Chris Carr was due a $2.5 million base salary and carried a $3.45 million base salary for next season. Now, he's being cut, per a source."

    The Ravens likely knew that Carr would not earn a roster spot that justified his contract. So, out of respect, they are going to give him plenty of time to find a new team through FA.

    No real surprise, though shame for Carr as really injuries pushed him down the depth chart. It wouldn't surprise me if they pick up another corner somewhere to compensate for losing Carr (and Foxworth, sort of) as depth (as the top 3 are sorted and Gorrer looks like he's got potential).

    The Ravens were the first team last year to start the cuts, IIRC. The four were released basically straight away to allow them time to find new clubs (which they all did). No point hanging around for either party (player or franchise)

    Everything was late last year due to lock out.

    Carr was a no brainer to be cut.

    Ozzie said that he could fit Rice, Flacco and Grubbs if he cut three or four players. His concern was who those three or four players were. Carr, Foxworth and Evans are your three players. There is little concern in losing any of them.
