Baltimore Ravens: 3 Draft Prospects to Avoid
By Joe Serpico
The Baltimore Ravens are in position to reload in the 2016 NFL Draft, but there are some players that they should stay clear from.
The 2016 NFL Draft is no different than those in years past. There are players who will be stars. Some will making a decent living in the NFL. And of course, there will be some “busts” that won’t stick around for long.
The Baltimore Ravens have the highest pick in the Ozzie Newsome era and must strike gold with their early round selections. They have an opportunity to select seven players in the first 134 picks and come out of this draft with a revamped team ready to get back into the AFC North race.
The Ravens need this draft to be a good one. Newsome has openly said that the recent drafts have not been up to his standards. He has taken several players that are question marks over players that many feel will have a lasting impact in the league.
This draft is full of those types of players. Whether it is a lack of production or off-the-field problems, certain teams will take a chance on a player to get them over the hump. The Ravens can ill afford to swing and miss in this draft, and that’s why certain guys they should steer clear from.
This might be the most important draft since Ozzie took over as General Manager. Another disappointing draft class could put him on the hot seat. That’s why at least these three guys in the NFL they need to stay away from.
