The Facts:
During a mandatory mini-camp that concluded Sunday, Rice displayed proof in advertising about his uncommon quickness and cutting ability. Although the former Rutgers star is listed at 5-8, 200 pounds on the roster, he's not diminutive in terms of his game or durability. Drafted in the second round last month, Rice is vying to become the primary backup to Willis McGahee. "That kid can flat-out play," McGahee said. "Man, he's quick."

According to Times staffer Aaron Wilson, Rice's speed and ability to change direction were obvious in the open field while assimilating a complicated playbook and adjusting to the increased speed of the game. ... With a McGahee-Rice tandem, the Ravens would love to recreate OC Cam Cameron's success in San Diego with LaDainian Tomlinson and Michael Turner.
