He's not Ed Reed, but not many are. Great pick for them. Ravens always pick solid defensive players. I've been jealous of most LB and safety picks they've made over the years. Is Ozzie Newsome still in their front office?

Barring injuries, we're set at OT for the next ten years, hopefully more.

I think McCoy could be starting to break down, Ruiz is mid, and Penning is unproven on the inside. But we are set at tackle. I would have nothing against us taking a Guard with a later pick. We won a ring by hitting on mid round guards in the past and you ALWAYS need depth in the trenches. Sorry, but Saldeveri is out of his depth.

I'm always happy with us drafting a OT in the first round. More than anything I'm just happy it wasn't Sanders.

OK but Penning and Ruiz have both been a disappointment. Of course Ramczeck and Fuaga have been hits.

Seems 50/50 but I'd say first rounders from top programs have a better chance.

And if a first round Tackle isn't working out you can try them at guard. Pretty hard to try a first round guard/center like Ruiz at Tackle. So draft a Tackle from a big program like Banks.
