Ravens, Hamlin agree to deal

Football Betting Lines

06/22/2010 - Owings Mills, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Baltimore Ravens signed safety Ken Hamlin to a one-year deal on Tuesday.

Hamlin was released by the Dallas Cowboys in April.

The 29-year-old veteran will provide Baltimore with depth at the position as it appears Ed Reed will not be ready for at least the beginning of training camp after undergoing hip surgery last month.

Originally drafted in the second round (42nd overall) of the 2003 NFL Draft by Seattle, Hamlin spent the first four years of his career with the Seahawks. After starting 30 of the 32 games he played in during his first two seasons, he was limited to six games in 2005 after suffering serious head injuries in a fight outside a club in Seattle.

He returned in 2006 and started all 16 games, compiling 96 tackles, two sacks, and three interceptions before signing a one-year deal with the Cowboys.

Hamlin started all 16 games in his first season in Dallas, totaling 102 total stops and five interceptions and was rewarded with a Pro Bowl selection and a six-year, $39 million contract.

He combined for 126 tackles, one sack and one interception over the last two seasons while starting all 28 games he played in for the Cowboys.

Over his seven-year career, Hamlin has made 486 tackles, recorded five sacks and picked off 14 passes.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
