Charles Davis On Potential Targets For The Ravens In The NFL Draft

Charles Davis is an analyst for the NFL Network and the lead college football analyst for Fox Sports.

Charles joined Ken and Steve to talk about the Pro Bowl, Super Bowl 50, and players the Ravens should target in the NFL Draft.

Charles started off by talking about the Pro Bowl and how to possibly fix the game and make it more interesting for the fans. Charles reminisced on days when players had to get jobs in the off-season and how back in those days the money was a true motivator and said "I just don't see anything there where players will be truly motivated to be in the game." Charles said he doesn't think a skills challenge would be a big ratings grab for the NFL either.

As for the Super Bowl Charles talked about the match-up looking bad for Denver saying "it's going to be a struggle for them, you start with the QBs and work from there...if the Panthers are able to move people and run the ball the way they want to it's going to be real difficult for Denver." As for what he would do if he was the Panthers defensive coordinator Charles said "if I'm Carolina on defense my corners are sitting at break points for routes...and I know this is blasphemy but I'm telling Peyton Manning you beat me over the top."

Charles also talked about some of the prospects he is impressed with in the upcoming NFL Draft. As for what the Ravens should do with the 6th overall pick Charles said "if it's cornerback it's going to be a Junior is Jalen Ramsey still sitting there or Vernon Hargreaves...pass rusher the best one I saw this week was Noah Spence from Eastern Kentucky...as for tackle Spencer Drango from Baylor but he's not a left tackle."
