If you’re looking to find the most improved team in the NFL betting lines in 2010 look no further than the Baltimore Ravens, quote this writer evermore. Named for the most famous poem of Baltimore’s favorite son, Edgar Allen Poe, the Ravens have been as active as any team in football betting this off season not named the New York Jets. The only difference is that he Raven’s moves have all improved the team’s chances in the 2010 NFL gambling action, and the same can’t be said of some of the J-E-T-S decisions.

Start with the blockbuster trade that brought the Ravens their first real #1 receiving threat in franchise history. That might sound like hyperbole but for an expansion team that has never placed much value on passing the ball it’s absolutely true. By trading for former Phoenix Cardinal WR Anquan Boldin the Ravens acquired one of the top ten receivers in the NFL betting lines action and finally give young QB Joey Flacco a reliable downfield option.

They also further boosted the team’s receiving corps by signing speedy WR Donte Stalworth in the football betting offseason. Stalworth has been off the NFL gambling radar after being suspended the previous NFL betting lines season after being arrested on vehicular manslaughter charges but if he really ran a 4.28 at the Ravens workout, as it’s rumored among NFL betting experts, he’ll be a valuable piece in stretching the field.

And in the draft Ravens were arguably the biggest winners in terms of NFL betting talent. OLB Sergio Kindle might just be best pass rusher taken in the NFL draft this year and should be in the starting lineup when the 2010 football betting season begins. If DT Terrence Cody can remain under 400 lbs he might just be the steal of the entire drat after falling to the second round. Third and fourth-rounders S Ed Dickson and TE Dennis Pitta should also see plenty of playing time during the 2010 NFL betting season.

No team in the NFL betting lines has added that kind of talent and that much depth to their roster during the off season. Baltimore will be among the top ten teams in the NFL betting in passing, rushing and defense. And that kind of all-around talent will put them firmly in the Super Bowl betting discussion.
