OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- As far as cornerbacks go, the Baltimore Ravens landed the second-best one in the draft and the most durable one in the NFL during free agency.
The additions of rookie Marlon Humphrey and veteran Brandon Carr represents one of the Ravens' biggest commitments to their secondary in recent memory -- with an emphasis on memory. Baltimore has gone through so many cornerbacks over the past two seasons that it put defensive coordinator Dean Pees in an awkward situation.

"A guy was actually playing for me, and I could not remember his first name off the top of my head, because we just signed him three days ago," Pees said during the draft.
