Dan Shonka Says Jaelen Strong Would Be A Steal For The Ravens

Dan Shonka is the General Manager and National Scout for ourlads.com

Dan joined Ed and Steve to talk about the scouting combine and the upcoming NFL draft.

Dan started off by talking about the corners available in the draft and who they could target in the late first round "there's really no big time big time corners at the top that you say 'we've gotta have'...Trae Waynes is a good corner and he'll go in the first round and P.J. Williams in the first but you have a lot of guys late first early 2nd who are talented." As for this year's safety class and whether or not the Ravens can find somebody Dan said "well, it's thin but again at the right spot...you can get safeties in the 3rd and 4th rounds who end up being good football players." As for if the Ravens go wide receiver Dan said "I don't know if he'll be there but Jaelen Strong is a guy we really like and would fit the Ravens perfectly...we think he'll go to Kansas City at 18 but if he slides he would be an absolute steal for the Ravens at 26." Dan also talked about the two quarterbacks who are expected to battle for the number one overall pick and who he believes is better.
