L.J. Smith Reunites with Harbaugh in Baltimore

L.J. Smith, the former Philadelphia Eagles franchise player has agrred to terms with the Baltimore Ravens on a one-year $1.5 Million deal, which is pending a physical.

Smith, 28, spent the past six seasons in Philadelphia, where Ravens head coach John Harbaugh spent most of his career as an assistant. Baltimore has been looking for depth at tight end to play alongside current starter Todd Heap, who's had several injuries in recent seasons. He will also provide another recieving threat for the young developping QB Joe Flacco.

Many believed that Smith would end up in Atlanta, with the other young developping QB, and last seasons rookie of the year, QB Matt Ryan. When a deal never materialized, Smith continued his search to Detroit and eventually ended up with the Ravens.

Since becoming a second round choice of the Eagles in 2003, Smith has caught 231 passes for 2,525 yards (10.9 avg.) and 18 TD's. His best season came in 2006 when he caught 50 passes for 611 yards (12.2 avg.) and 5 TD's
