More news on the potentially radical reconstruction taking place in the Ravens backfield...  From a LOCAL source on "The REAL Feed":
 
Ravens may run in new direction with pick
SunSpot.net - Sports (04.03.2006 07:45)
Mike Preston  
Memphis running back DeAngelo Williams might be small, but he is making big noise in the NFL circles, so much that the Ravens might select him over Southern California's LenDale White with the No. 13 overall pick in the first round of the draft.

 
This news conflicts with what was brought up here:

The question is...  Where does this leave Jamal Lewis?  Does he get sent down the pipeline in the opposite direction???

Home again: Jamal Lewis agrees to new Ravens dealBy John Clayton
ESPN.com
 
 
Less than 12 hours after the Ravens replaced Chester Taylor with Mike Anderson, Jamal Lewis got what he wanted -- a chance to return to Baltimore.
 
The office of Lewis' agent, Mitch Frankel, confirmed Lewis accepted a three-year deal to stay in Baltimore. Terms of the deal were unavailable because Frankel was on a flight this morning.
 
Lewis was planning to go to Denver for a visit and start to find another team but he kept in touch with the Ravens. Finally, after 24 hours of negotiations, going back and forth between short-term and long-term deals, Lewis accepted a three-year deal to stay and will have a conference call with the media later this afternoon.

Jamal Contract shows he is starter
 
Any chance Mike Anderson had to start in... Published Mon Mar 13 11:58:00 a.m. ET 2006  
(Rotoworld) Any chance Mike Anderson had to start in Baltimore is gone with Jamal Lewis' re-signing.
Impact: The AP mistakenly called Anderson Lewis' replacement Sunday night, when his contract clearly calls for a backup role. If the Ravens don't add a rookie, Anderson still looks like a useful fantasy handcuff.

The difference just a couple years can make...  From "The REAL Feed":
 
Wary of injuries, Ravens release starting fullback Ricard
ESPN: NFL (18.07.2006 23:08)
Regarded as one of the NFL's most punishing lead-blocking fullbacks only a few years ago and credited with helping tailback Jamal Lewis crack the 2,000-yard barrier in 2003, five-year veteran Alan Ricard was released by the Ravens.

 
If Jamal runs for 2,000 ever again, it won't be with the same fullback blocking for him.

Ravens look to reach remote fans
SunSpot.net - Sports (09.08.2006 09:06)
The Ravens are quietly appealing to the NFL to unite Baltimore and Washington into a single television market, a move that could help the club serve thousands of fans - and cultivate new ones - who can't see all of the team's games because they live outside the immediate Baltimore area.
