Ravens | John Brown may not return (Fri Feb 8, 05:22 PM) - Baltimore Ravens impending free-agent WR John Brown probably will not re-sign with the Ravens this offseason, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Jamison Hensley.

Our View: We think Brown ends up with the Buccaneers and his former coach with the Cardinals, Bruce Arians. His speed would be a great asset for that team and replace DeSean Jackson (the Bucs are expected to move on from him this offseason).
