Yamon Figurs |
WR |
Kansas
State |
|
Analysis |
|
An
outstanding return man
who can also be a No. 3
or No. 4 wide receiver.
He ran a 4.30 second 40
at the combine, the
fastest player in the
nation and will be an
immediate difference on
special teams creating
fear in opponents. |

Marshall Yanda |
G |
Iowa |
|
Analysis |
|
Yanda was
a two-year starter at
Iowa. He is almost 6-7
and 307 pounds, and he
ran the 40 in 5.25. His
best position is
probably at guard. He
has a lot of upside and
is mobile enough to be a
NFL pulling guard. |

Antwan Barnes |
OLB |
Florida
International |
|
Analysis |
|
Barnes
has cornerback speed in
a linebackers body.
There is one theme
running throughout the
Ravens draft and that is
speed to burn. We are
talking about
6’ 0” 240
pounds and a 4.46 40yd
time. He is strong as
well benching 225 31
times at the combine |

Le'Ron McClain |
FB |
Alabama |
|
Analysis |
|
He
can block, we don't mean
blocking like we see in
the NFl these days, we
mean blocking like
Robert Newsome used to
block. He just
obliterates people.

Troy Smith |
QB |
Ohio
State |
|
Analysis |
|
Smith
projected to the mid
rounds mostly due to his
measureables. People
just think he is too
short and doesn't have
the tools. What he does
have is all the
intangibles and we will
just have to wait and
see if he can learn from
McNair. |

Prescott Burgess |
OLB |
Michigan |
|
Analysis |
|
He's
another one of those LBs
who can rush the qb and
drop into pass coverage,
but he is weak by NFL
standards. He will
benefit from the
practice squad, but he
fits Baltimore’s defense
well. |
