Givens was traded to the Ravens on Saturday for a conditional draft pick.
EDGE Analysis
Givens clearly wasn't going to see much production with the Rams considering he saw only a single target in the first three games of the season, so his outlook should be much better in Baltimore. With Steve Smith dealing with a back injury, Michael Campanaro (back) out for the season, and first-round draft pick Breshad Perriman (knee) needing surgery, Givens will compete with Kamar Aiken and Marlon Brown for targets from Joe Flacco.
There is talk Smith will be back next game because of the 10 days. I think this trade was more for depth because Perriman is not coming back anytime soon.
I know he broke 4 ribs, but they are saying he could play as early as next Sunday. They said its up to how much pain he can handle. My Uncle coached this guy in Carolina and said toughest SOB he ever met. I would be surprised if he missed more than 1 game.

givens can fly -- has not had a qb like flacco to get him the ball --- this could be a very good p/u by the ravens
