Ravens draft three talented, needed players

The Ravens did not trade back at all today. They drafted three very talented players that play positions the Ravens need help with.

The 43rd overall pick was pass rusher Sergio Kindle. Kindle was predicted to go in the first round but he fell to the early part of the first round and that is when the Ravens snatched him up. Analyst accredit him as a dynamic college pass rusher in college and expect him to transition well to the pro's.

The 57th overall pick was the enormous run stopper Terrance Cody. He was the Ravens' the other second-round pick. He was also predicted to be picked in the first round. The collaborative efforts of Cody and Ngata will make an interesting run blocking combo. the Ravens finally got another defensive lineman to replace Dwan Edwards and Justin Bannan, both of whom departed in free agency.

The third and final pick for the Ravens on the day was the 70th overall pick, TE Eric Dickson. Dickson is known for being a fast pass catching tight end. It is good to see the Ravens get another body on the depth chart behind Todd Heap in the tight end category.

Right now it looks the Ravens made their squad much better but we will have to wait and see how these picks produce in the future. We still have one more day of the draft. As of now, the Ravens have four picks left, one in the fourth round, two in the fifth round and one in the sixth round.
