The Ravens will sign Bryant McKinnie in an effort to fix their tackle problem.

Sean Jensen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports McKinnie has agreed to a deal. The Ravens came close to confirming the report via Twitter. (UPDATE: They confirmed it.)

UPDATE: The Ravens confirmed the move, pending a physical. It’s a two-year deal. Florio reports via a source that it can be worth up to $7.5 million. Only $1 million is guaranteed.

I'm going to Twitter @BryantMcKinnie some weight loss tips.

The shocking thing to all this ... the plane could carry his fat ass.

That earthquake on the east coast today started as soon as he got off the plane in Baltimore.

I bet the bitch slapping the Vikings gave him has caused him to look at things with a slightly different perspective. Maybe even enough to boost his NFL production.

I'd say if anyone can get this guys ass in gear, It'l be Ray. I can't see him putting up with fat useless players. If there's one thing the Ravens consistently ahve, it's mean players that work hard. If they're not good then they're not good, but it's not due to lack of effort.

Didn't see that one coming. Was sure it would be either the Bores or Seachickens.

Bigger issue I was tracking for the Ravens was their Center issues.

Don't worry about their starting center. He's such a stud that he's still on track to start the season. I wish we had a center like that on our team instead of the less than mediocre shuffle.

LOL, I wished I wouldn't have brought that up as soon as I hit send.

I was referring to Rabach. Mattinson did look good against the Iggles though.

"Minnesota, it was honestly more of a numbers game about having their salary cap in a certain point by that Thursday, which really wasn't mentioned too much....."
