I guy I like is Damonte Kazee CB from San Diego State ball hawking Corner. 

One of the best tackling CBs I've seen in a while. You're not alone.

I really like takk I think he has great potential. All he needs are a couple disengaging moves and he's a 10+ sack guy. Hes not as stuff as some make him out to be, he his needs to be refined. Very refined. But he could come in and be an edge defender and interior rusher for now. Guards will have issues with his length and quickness. Then mold him to be the grit to suggs, that's my idea of what to do with him

I like Takk but was disappointed in his 3 cone drill time. I question if he's fluid enough to drop into coverage and not sure if he's a good fit as a  outside linebacker as well.

I can't remember the last time I saw a player as afraid of contact as Takk. Dude refuses to use his hands.

Lol he's definitely not afraid of contact. He just doesn't know what to do with his hands

I can't find much tape on him. Hes super competitive though. he best tackling corner I've seen in a while is Marlon Humphrey and it's not even close

Yea, didn't he play around 4 seasons for us?

If the Ravens draft this man, I'll be happy.

Penn State WR Chris Godwin

Then you might like a mock draft on Roto that I just found, ironically has both the WRs we just posted.  Has Godwin in the second for us, that about around his stock price?

Sounds about right. With the athleticism he showed at the combine, i think mid-2nd is about right.

Should go right in a grouping with Zay Jones, Juju, Kupp, somewhere in with those guys.

[Edgar]

Teldrick Morgan, WR- MARYLAND.

Talented player that The Ravens supposedly high on.

Matt Waldman did a breakdown on him as well.

Like BOLD said, 2nd round would be perfect. Love everything about his game.

Mid-second seems alright for grabbing him considering his ceiling. Could be considered a slight reach, but he's a great fit for us. Godwin would be capable of taking over the outside receiver spot across from Perriman while Wallace moves inside to give him some better matchups.

What round is James conner projected? He would be a great power back for us. Don't see much talk on him here

Idk. I have trouble projecting where the RBs could go in this draft. 

Could see anywhere from 1-4 go in the 1st... and depending on that anywhere from like 3-7 in the 2nd rd. 

 

My best guess is he could be taken anywhere from the mid 3rd to the 6th round.

Caleb Brantly in round 2 @RaineV1 saw your first pick mock. Made me remember his tape

[rossihunter2]

@-Truth- put me onto this guy, Keion Adams, who's apparently been doing a lot of visits around the league which means he must be being considered draftable for many teams given that he'll be 1 of their allotted 30 allowed visits - given that this guy is projected to go undrafted in the media i have to think that maybe the fact that he went to western michigan has kept him entirely under the radar of the media for this long

i watched the two games that i could find of him and it was a lot of fun to watch - obviously you have to take into account the level of competition but he showed decent bend and burst, relentless pursuit and a nose for the football which are all useful traits - he's a bit undersized and according to nfl.com has some character concerns although i've seen nothing on any other site that suggests what they might be or whether they exist at all - in fact a lot of the other material ive read about him seems to suggest he's a high character team player which is odd given the nfl.com scouting report - because of his size he may never have the chance to be an every down player but as a guy who likely goes in the 6th/7th round at the earliest, he could develop into a handy situational speed rusher - definitely a player who will have to stand up in the nfl which suggests he'd certainly be a potential scheme fit

--> as @-Truth- pointed out to me, Adams apparently has visited the entire afc north, the cardinals, falcons, lions, colts, chargers, jets and 49ers - that's a significant investment for those teams to all spend a visit on this guy for him to be a non-factor in the draft

@rossihunter2 ya i dont see many character issues unless its a DV case. kid is majoring i  criminal justice with a 3.09 gpa, not great but not bad. Shows hes trying a bit in school

In the actual draft I doubt he makes it to the mid second, but he would be a hell of an upgrade over Jernigan if he's there.

ive been googling hard on this and still havent surfaced anything: the nfl.com scout reports says this: "Scouts have some concerns over character red flags." The way that's phrased made me think its legal trouble but now maybe i think it must be some sort of behind the scenes thing with the coaches or something...

Anyone know anything about Tyus Bowser?

From what I know, he's an extremely athletically gifted guy who is also very unpolished. He's the type that's taken for potential because if he does put it all together he can be a great edge rusher. However he also has the chance to be just another athletic guy that never lived up to his potential.

Strong looking stand up linebacker - played a lot of coverage so may end up getting drafted as a 4-3 olb or even inside for some teams but definitely projects best as an edge guy - he's athletically pretty gifted, is quick to blitz and uses his athleticism to beat guys despite being quite raw still - probably a 3rd round type guy (he is for me anyway) but might get reached on

He looks interesting.  Just didnt know much about him.  With the amount of defensive talent in this draft, we really have a chance to turn things around quickly.

I'm a big fan of Bowser.  Needs some work as a pass rusher but he should be able to play from day 1 with his coverage abilities.  I think he could be a guy that can play pretty much every LB spot regardless of scheme.  It's amazing how much Houston made him drop into coverage, and it's not easy to find too many actual pass rushing situations for him on tape.  When he does rush the passer, you can see the speed and explosion.  He just needs to further develop his pass rush moves.  I liken him to Jamie Collins.  I think he's a very similar player if he can continue to develop.
