The Ravens could use Jah Reid as a 6th Olineman for that matter... Bc

They could. Definitely nothing saying that they can't.

If the Giants were to ever let a guy like Bear Pascoe go, he'd be someone to look into.

Yea, Syp was a really unfortunate situation. Definitely was coming along nicely as an all-around TE.

Rumors going around that Hightower is staying in college. That sucks big time if true

His teammates Trent Richardson and Dre Kirkpatrick declared for the NFL.

Nope, Hightower announced at the same press conference as Richardson and Kirkpatrick that he HAS declared for the 2012 draft. Multipe media outlets confirm the report.

I cant see hightower staying in school, especially with Manti Teo staying in school, and vontaze burfict's stop dropping like crazy.

He isn't going to be the first LB taken next season either way. He has to come out.

I doubt we draft a Corner in this draft, but Ozzie's philosophy of never having enough corners, also if Cary isn't back next season.

Donnie Fletcher from BC, is a very interesting prospect. He is a very solid physical corner, with good speed and size. He suffers from just being over looked, and underrated. He would be a steal in the 3rd.

Mark Barron i don't think makes it out of the first round, let alone land to us at the bottom of the 2nd. If Ozzie trades for him i wont be mad.

As far as centers go, I would rather snag Phillip Blake out of Baylor in the 3rd or late 2nd than spend a 1st round pick on a Center, no offense to the center position but we could easily get a more impact position with our 1st and 2nd than a center. Blake is a very athletic guy for a man his size, he is an excellent Pass blocker, and he was the center for a Baylor team that had a hell of a running game. He screams steal. I honestly like him better than Jones and konz, or even Brewster.

Yea, Donnie Fletcher is a guy who could play FS as well. He'd be an interesting 6th round pick or so if he's there.

Really surprised at this, but LSU DT Michael Brockers has declared for the NFL draft as well. He is 6'6" and nearly 305lbs. He's stupid quick for a guy his size. This kid is really impressive. He's a young Richard Seymour.

Some team with turn him into a 3-4 DE and ruin him.

I don't know if that will ruin him or not. He fits the mold. I think if a 3-4 coordinator like Pagano or Wade Phillips gets ahold of him he'll do just fine.

He's a friggin monster either way.
