The Baltimore Ravens have signed Smith to a one-year contract.

Impacts: Head coach John Harbaugh knows what type of player the Ravens are getting in Smith from his days coaching in Philadelphia. Smith, a 6-foot-3, 258 pound six-year NFL veteran, has caught 231 passes for 2,525 yards and 18 touchdowns in 86 regular season games. Smith has also played in four playoff games and started 65 regular season games.

The Miami Dolphins acquired McDaniel on Friday for an undisclosed 2009 draft pick.

An alleged drug dealer in suburban Philadelphia testified that he did not sell marijuana to Buckhalter.

Impacts: That contradicts the word of a state trooper, who testified Thursday that he was listening on wiretaps when Buckhalter, who played at Nebraska, called the suspect, 36-year-old Styles Beckles of Clifton Heights. Buckhalter, a former Philadelphia Eagle, denies buying drugs from Beckles. He has not been charged.

Weaver has agreed to a one-year contract with Philadelphia, giving the Eagles a much-needed blocker in the backfield.

Impacts: The Eagles played without a true fullback most of last season, and it cost them in several short-yardage situations. Converted halfback Tony Hunt started but was cut after seeing limited action. Defensive tackle Dan Klecko was moved to fullback and Kyle Eckel was signed off waivers to add depth. Weaver, 6-foot and 242 pounds, is a solid blocker and can be effective with the ball.

The Saints cut McKenzie on Thursday.

Impacts: The 32-year-old McKenzie played five seasons with the Saints after the team acquired him in a 2004 trade with Green Bay. The 11-year veteran started 62 of 63 games, with 225 tackles (167 solo), 58 passes defensed, 12 interceptions and one forced fumble. The past two seasons were tough for McKenzie, who suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in the last game of the 2007 season and a fractured right patella in 2008.

New England has signed Galloway, giving the Patriots two of the most prolific active receivers in the NFL.

Impacts: The 37-year-old Galloway has a 15.7 yards-per-reception career average. That leads all active NFL players with 300 or more career receptions and is just ahead of New England's Randy Moss, who has a career average of 15.6.

The Cleveland Browns have signed Ivy, who spent the past three seasons with division rival Baltimore.
