Dan Shonka Of Ourlads Previews The NFL Draft And Possible Ravens Targets
Dan Shonka is the General Manager and National Scout for ourlads.com.
Dan joined Ed and Steve to talk about the upcoming NFL Draft and who the Ravens should target.
Dan started off by talking about who he thinks the Ravens will select at number 26 in the draft saying "they're used to picking down towards the bottom and we have Jaelen Strong as a possibility in there and we've had running backs in there before...Ozzie will select the best player that falls to them." As for whether or not he would take Melvin Gordon or Todd Gurley if he was the Ravens Dan said "it's all about scheme, if you're a zone stretch team you can't beat Melvin Gordon...Gurley is a little bit more powerful guy, theoretically you think he would hold up more in the NFL despite his injury history." When Dan was asked if the Ravens go cornerback who they should take he said "Peters from Washington, an outstanding corner and a good size guy...he's an Oakland California inner city tough kid and he did have some run ins with coaches."
