NFL Trade Deadline Passes Quietly
The NFL trade deadline came and went with barely a whisper of activity, save for a rather ho-hum money move that sent CB Aqib Talib to the Dolphins from the Rams. The Ravens were unable to bolster their 16th-ranked defense but it wasn’t due to a lack of effort.
Eric DeCosta, the Ravens GM who is a feisty competitor and possesses an insatiable desire to win, explored several player options but found little enthusiasm from potential trading partners before the trade deadline.
