Baltimore Ravens 2007 NFL Draft Preview

Football Betting Lines

04/02/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Ravens filled their most pressing offseason need by trading for running back Willis McGahee on March 8th, but following the defections of right tackle Tony Pashos (Jaguars), guard Edwin Mulitalo (released) and fullback Ovie Mughelli (Falcons), finding some people to block for McGahee will be a priority. Perennial Pro Bowl tackle Jonathan Ogden is talking retirement, so help at that spot is of utmost importance. Baltimore will probably add a quarterback to grace the depth chart behind 34-year-old Steve McNair and contractual short-timer Kyle Boller, but probably not until the second day. At linebacker, Baltimore lost its most dynamic player, Adalius Thomas, to free agency, and soon-to-be-32-year-old Ray Lewis has begun to show his age in the middle. Elsewhere on defense, cornerbacks Chris McAlister and Samari Rolle took turns serving as pariahs in Charm City last year, and a player to push one or both could be helpful.

2006 Record: 13-3

First Pick: No. 29

Number of Selections: 8 (1, 2, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6)

RECENT FIRST ROUND HISTORY: 2006 - Haloti Ngata (DT, Oregon); 2005 - Mark Clayton (WR, Oklahoma); 2004 - none; 2003 - Terrell Suggs (DE, Arizona State), Kyle Boller (QB, California); 2002 - Ed Reed (S, Miami); 2001 - Todd Heap (TE, Arizona State); 2000 - Jamal Lewis (RB, Tennessee), Travis Taylor (WR, Florida); 1999 - Chris McAlister (CB, Arizona); 1998 - Duane Starks (CB, Miami); 1997 - Peter Boulware (LB, Florida State); 1996 - Jonathan Ogden (OT, UCLA), Ray Lewis (LB, Miami).
