    Word around the NFL has the Ravens possibly taking Troy cornerback Leodis McKelvin with the No. 8 pick in the NFL draft later this month. There are some who would consider that a stretch, but McKelvin does have a favorable upside. Because of his versatility, McKelvin is the kind of player Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome likes. The 5-foot-11, 190-pound McKelvin is also a returner who averaged 17.4 yards on punts and 23.2 yards on kickoffs last season. Of course, his primary function with the Ravens would be as a corner, either as a starter or a nickel back behind Chris McAlister and Samari Rolle.

    I still believe they take McKelvin even though you disagree with me if Ryan falls. I believe we discussed this before lol.

    I like McKelvin. Dont get me wrong. I think they may go OT however before they go CB. Obviously disagree about Ryan but I dont think he'll be available for them to pick anyway

    Who do you think will take Ryan since he is out of the contention here??? I think Atlanta will take him because Jake Long will be gone.
