Ravens newly-signed reserve quarterback John Beck is off to a good start, completing several passes on crisp spiral. A former second-round draft pick, Beck is expected to compete with Troy Smith for the backup job behind Joe Flacco. "John's really smart and he picks up the offense quickly," Harbaugh said. "He's been in this offense before, which pro bably helps him. He can really throw. He's got a quick, compact release. He throws a good, tight, accurate ball." Source: Carroll County Times
Wonder how this will all workout, The Ravens have been reluctant to put 3 QB's on the 53 man roster the last couple years, If Beck beats out Smith or vice versa, what happens to that guy?, neither can be put on the practice squad because they'll be picked up quickly with no compensation.
