Baltimore Ravens 2008 NFL Draft and
Free Agency Team Needs
The top needs for the Ravens to fill
in the upcoming draft and free agency.
Quarterback: Even if he
could manage to stay healthy the days of Steve McNair being a top signal
caller are long gone. Meanwhile Kyle Boller has shown time and time again
that he's not the answer.
Cornerback: Chris
McAlister has battled injuries and Samari Rolle is getting older and he also
battled injuries and a illness. Even more disturbing is their extreme lack
of depth beyond those two starters. The only problem is no cornerback rates
high enough for the Ravens to take one with the No. 8 overall pick.
Defensive end: The
Ravens' pass rush dropped off significantly when Trevor Pryce got injured.
The Ravens need more depth as far as pass rushers and could find one high in
the first round.
Linebacker: We have
been saying for a while now that it is time to groom a replacement for Ray
Lewis, but he keeps going and going. Still, depth is needed here and
eventually he will need to start grooming his own replacement.
