I don't necessarily hate this, but I hope it's not used as an excuse to not make bigger and better moves that seriously upgrade the position.

per Adam Schefter Twitter:

WR Donte Stallworth will sign a one-year, $900,000 deal with the Ravens, with another $300,000 to be made in incentives.

He can't be any worse than Mark Clayton IMO, especially at that cost.

Interesting move, he better dust that rust off in the off season!

This is not a bad move at all for the price.
Right player right price. At that price it really doesn't effect the cap much and is probably not the only move the FO will make at that position. That is probably D-Will's replacement. I can see Stallworth and Washington battling for the 3 if Mason resigns and we trade for a true 1 or Mason resigns and we draft a potential #1 that will play the #2 the first year

I still want Brandon Marshall here:D

Imagine Mason, Marshall, Stallworth all lined up with Rice and Heap!

Can't say that I'm thrilled with this move, but I'm fine with it so long as the organization isn't looking at this as a fix at the wide receiver position. This needs to be looked at as a low-risk, potential high reward where anything he gives us is a bonus and unexpected.

This pretty much means Clayton will be fighting for his job and I, for one, will be pulling for Stallworth.

Of all the troubled athletes, Stallworth was the exception to the rule. He was remorseful from day one, cooperated fully with every investigation and court order and now has a legit second shot at the NFL.

Hope he works out!

Disagree.

If anyone is going to be fighting for a job it's Clayton.

Not a horrible move for the price. He still has a long way to go to make the team but could be a deep threat. As long as 2 WR's this offseason im fine with that. Mason, Demaryius Thomas, Carlton Mitchell, Donte Stallworth, Justin Harper or Marcus Smith.....not bad at all

Your absolutely right, this looks like a set up to part ways with Clayton.
