FWST: New cornerback Evan Oglesby

Evan Oglesby got the shocking call from Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome that he was cut while he was on the subway in New York. He was taking a few days off given to the players.

A day later, the Cowboys called. Oglesby (5-10, 185) played 16 games with the Ravens last season as the No. 3 cornerback. He credits learning a lot from linebacker Ray Lewis and safety Ed Reed.

``I'm here to help,'' Oglesby said. ``I am one of those players you can depend on.''
