The Facts: Ragone, claimed by the Bengals on waivers last month, was traded to the St. Louis Rams on Tuesday for an undisclosed choice in the 2007 draft.

Diehards Line:Ragone is joining his third team in a little over a month. He began the offseason with the Houston Texans, who waived him in May. Although the Bengals were intrigued by his potential, Ragone was unfamiliar with the offense and faced a crowded depth chart. He will also join a very competitive situation with the Rams, as well, and likely will battle Ryan Fitzpatrick and Jeff Smoker for the No. 3 job on the depth chart. Marc Bulger is the unchallenged starter and veteran Gus Frerotte is the primary backup.
