I guess the front office knew he was gone one way or another. I wish him well. Damn we have upgraded in that one position. If we can get Huff to turn it around and get a good TE and WR in the draft now we'll be much improved on offense.

The Ravens aren’t finished trying to rebuild their receiving corps.

According to multiple reports, which PFT has confirmed, the Ravens have signed Saints restricted free agent Willie Snead to a two-year offer sheet worth up to $10.4 million.

The Saints have five days to match it, though it seems unlikely they would.

The Saints signed Bears RFA Cameron Meredith to join a group including Michael Thomas and Ted Ginn, which wouldn’t seem to leave much room for Snead at any price. They also brought back Brandon Coleman.

Not a surprise that he's leaving at all, but I am surprised at what Baltimore is paying him. Good for him though....wish him the best!

I wish him the best as well. It seemed pretty clear something was amiss and the writing was on the wall for quite some time. I am a Snead fan, & had hoped he'd make a comeback here. Good luck in Baltimore!

Well... That way was cool. Good luck Kenny.

The Saints tendered Snead, but they used the lowest tender so they will get no compensation should they decide against matching a deal with Ravens or anyone else.

He gone.

Yep, Snead is gone. Saints aren't matching.

I wish him well. He did good things in New Orleans

Great deal for him and we already have it covered with CM. Everybody won on paper except the Ravens overpaying.
