The 2012 draft season has officially begun and SB Nation's great draft site, Mocking The Draft, has launched some terrific coverage of every player and team that you need to know about for the upcoming 2012 NFL draft. To go along with these prospect rankings, tons of mocks and team needs evaluations, representatives from all 32 NFL sites participated in a 7 round live mock draft. Here are a few helpful links used throughout the draft to keep track of trades and which players were picked.

- Positional rankings and which players were chosen
Results for the Baltimore Ravens.
Round 1 (Pick 29) - Vontaze Burfict - ILB - Arizona State - 6'3" 245 lbs
- This is a common mocked pick for Baltimore, but it is also one that makes sense. Some see Burfict as a 2nd or 3rd round prospect, but others see him as a sure fire 1st round pick. Watching Burfict play, you can see why so many think he could be the heir apparent to Ray Lewis. With players such as Alshon Jeffrey, Mark Barron, Whitney Mercilus, Peter Konz and Donta Hightower chosen before the 29th pick, this was a no-brainer with really no better players left that have as much first round potential as Burfict does.

Round 2 (Pick 61) - Amini Silatolu - OG - Midwestern State - 6'3" 324 lbs
- The Division II stand out is quickly rising on most draft boards. His strength has been unmatched by most D-Lineman and has been said to be the best athlete of all O-Lineman in the 2012 draft. With Baltimore more than likely losing former 2007 first round pick Ben Grubbs to Free Agency, it would be smart for Ozzie to grab hold of a player in one of the most talented classes of interior lineman in a while. Allow me to introduce you to the next Edwin Mulitalo for Baltimore.

Round 3 (Pick 93) - Marvin McNutt - WR - Iowa - 6'3" 215 lbs
- McNutt's stellar 2011 season has allowed him to be in the conversation as one of the best WR prospects in the 2012 draft. McNutt led the Big 10 with 82 catches for a conference-best 1,315 yards (16.0 ypc) and a school single-season record 12 touchdowns. He was named the best WR in the Big 10. Had it not been for a poor game against potential first round CB Alfonzo Denard from Nebraska, McNutt might be in the conversation as a late 1st/early 2nd round pick. With the uncertainty of Lee Evans coming back and the rest of the group still being fairly inexperienced, McNutt would bring great depth and a much needed all around weapon to Baltimore's passing attack.

Round 5 (Pick 157) - Quentin Saulsberry - OC - Mississippi State - 6'3" 302 lbs
- In my opinion, Saulsberry is one of the safest mid-late round picks in this draft. It is extremely rare to find a college player with as much experience as Saulsberry has. In his 4 years at Mississippi State, Saulsbery has starter every game. He is the only player in school history to start every single game played (49). Not only would Saulsberry be a potential replacement for Birk/Gurode, but his versatility is as good as you can find. Between the 2010 and 2011 seasons, Saulsberry had starts at RG, C and LG. In previous seasons, he had even seen time at both tackle positions. Projecting as a Center in the NFL due to his limited size, this would be a very smart pick by Ozzie to find a player like Saulsberry.

- Quentin Saulsberry 1 on 1
Round 6 (Pick 189) - Tramain Thomas - FS - Arkansas - 6'0" 200 lbs
- Many Ravens fans don't see Safety as one of our bigger needs, but with UFA such as Zbikowski and Nakamura testing the market, our depth could be depleted entering next season. Thomas is an athletic, heavy hitter from the best college football conference in the nation. Thomas might have raised his draft stock a bit with strong performances against Ohio State, LSU and Auburn in the last few seasons, and with a good combine, could find himself being talked about as a late 3rd round pick.

- Highlights
Round 7 (Pick 221) - Tavoy Moore - WR/RB/KR - Idaho State - 5'6" 160 lbs
- So this is what Darren Sproles in college looks like. Want to know how I found out about Moore? Don't worry about it! But the first time I saw Moore play, he was catching 50 yard bombs and making player after player miss on kick and punt returns. There is no question that the Ravens current return situation is in a state of flux right now with potential star David Reed losing all confidence and Lardarius Webb most likely stepping down due to his important at CB. Moore is shifty, FAST and fearless with the ball in his hands. In 2010, Moore put up 2,034 all purpose yards with 8 TD's. He will end up being picked so late due to being dismissed from the Idaho State football team because of an incident during practice.Want to see some exciting highlights? Enjoy.

Hope you enjoyed this first mock. I will make every effort to put out as much draft coverage as possible for the site in the next 2 months. Just bare with me, there will be alot of great things to come.
How would you feel if the draft played out this way for Baltimore?

While I haven’t heard of a couple of these guys, every pick is an area of need which is good. First three rounds seem very solid and I def. see Ozzie grabbing some of these interior linemen. I have my own wish list, but I wouldn’t be dissapointed if the draft played out this way.
Burfict seems like his stock is dropping faster and faster by the day. Two weeks ago he was a sure fire late 1st rounder, now hearing talks of 2nd-3rd round. Interesting stuff.
I checked out the draft tracker for each pick that was made and I’m surprised the Floyd fell to 23, and Chicago took Sanu instead at 19. Also surprised the Poe fell into the 2nd and that Dennard fell into the 2nd too.
Good stuff, thanks for going through the ten hours for this!

Judging by who was available at 29, who would have been a better option than Burfict? In all honesty, I was trying to do everything to stay away from drafting him for the sake that it is such a common pick and that we are unsure of where he will be drafted. There were no interested trade partners, so I had to stay put. We aren’t drafting a CB or DT in the first, and there was a huge run on them after 29.
"Picture Me Rollin"
I’m not upset by the Burfict pick at all, and was a good choice given who was still available. I think you did a good job, filling a lot of needs with each pick that all seem to be good value.

Seriously, the 1st round was picked clean
Even with all of my own doubts I might have taken Burfict there. Weird to see how high Kuechly and Hightower went. Seems like Kuechly is going earlier and earlier and I just don’t see it, not a top-15 prospect imo.
Imagine if Burfict were gone too at 29, that would be a worst-case scenario for the Ravens
And smh at drafting Sanu ahead of Wright. If he falls, which he has in many mocks to the low-20s, wouldn’t mind us moving up for him. Although Stephen Hill fell really far too.
These mocks are strange ones, that is for sure. But all it takes is one team to like these guys. Remember guys like Derrick Harvey, Tyson Alualu, James Carpernter all going higher than they should have?
6 of the next 7 picks were all at positions where we are LEAST likely to spend a first round pick (DT, CB, TE, RB) So the thinking there is to grab a player like Burfict who could possibly start right away and fills a HUGE hole, or grab TE Dwayne Allen, RB Lamar Miller, CB’s Stephen Gilmore or Chase Minnefield and let them sit at the #3 spot on the depth chart at their position?
We aren’t like Pittsburgh where we want out 1st round picks to sit for 3 years, we want these guys starting and contributing in huge ways. Burfict might, he might not. Like I said, I wanted to do everything possible to avoid picking him, Jeffrey, Konz, Hightower, Barron, Mercilus would have all been picked before Burfict if available.
"Picture Me Rollin"
Mike Adams
Given the situation – and today I am off the Burflict Bandwagon again – I think Adams was BPA and in a position of need. He was a steal by SFO at 30 and IMO the Ravens would not pass on him at 29.

Don't disagree
But all things being equal, I would still take the #3 OT over the #3 ILB. And right now there are far more questions about Burflict than Adams. That might not be true after more due dilligence over the next couple months, but as of today I would go Adams.
But I would not be crying if after Draft Day 2 we were talking about Burflict, Silatolu and McNutt. That is quite a nice little haul.

No pass rushers. I can see us trading back and still ending up with a good linebacker.

Exactly
this is definitely the priority. We did very well in getting pressure this past season…who knows how it will change with Pees replacing Pagano, but we have the players to do it. McPhee will be in double digits with more playing time next year.
right on
and with McPhee and Kruger coming on and the slim chance of McAdoo showing something, we could already have something special.
you can never have enough pass rushers, but you still have to take the BPAs
"And, don’t get me started on Joe Flacco," Simms continued. "Did the experts watch the game? Joe didn’t miss a throw, not one. I watched every play. Every time he had the opportunity, he hit the guy. And, he made some moves so he could complete other throws. Are these people watching? What was Joe supposed to do with Texans in his face? Throw it up and hope? Sometimes a sack is a good thing. The object is to win the game. You did."

Sacks numbers don’t always indicate how much pressure was on the QB. We didn’t record a single sack against Houston in the playoffs, but you saw Yates continually flushed out of the pocket and making him uncomfortable which led to 3 ints.
"Picture Me Rollin"
bring in burfict!
i went to two of his asu games and he is a beast! i will freak if he is available at 29 and we pass on him. he is the only pick that i want in the first round. it would be perfect because theres no way lewis wouldnt get burficts head on straight. burfict is perfect!
you love picking

Awesome pick. Can’t wait to see this guy unleashed in the NFL. I don’t think d-linemen will be ready…
Agree
This was by far the best pick.

Round 3 (Pick 93) - Marvin McNutt
Found it interesting that you started a run at the WR pick here. 7 of the next 16 picks were at WR. Here are the 8 WR taken during that run:
Marvin McNutt, WR, Iowa
Marvin Jones, WR, California
Ryan Broyles, WR, Oklahoma
Juron Criner, WR, Arizona
Dwight Jones, WR, North Carolina
Brian Quick, WR, Appalachian State
Joe Adams, WR, Arkansas
Stephen Hill, WR, Georgia Tech
I would be interested in your thinking taking McNutt over the ther 7, especially since I thought Joe Adams was high on your wish list.
"the croaking raven doth bellow for revenge."
Hamlet, William Shakespeare
McNutt has the best numbers of that group first of all, and watching a few of his games this year, he has Pitta like hands. And for someone as tall as McNutt is, he is not one of those lanky looking WR like Quick and Hill are.
Marvin Jones was the 2nd option at CAL, Broyles is not very big, Criner I do think is a good option as well but he was never asked to run too many routes at ARI, Jones is also intriguing because he might go in the top 50 picks, Brian Quick is another great option, but I would like to see his combine first, Adams I like mostly because of his KR/PR skills, if he was there in the 4th, I would have loved to make a trade for him, and Hill just comes from that crap G-Tech offense, he has about 30 catches in his last 3 seasons.
"Picture Me Rollin"
Good analysis
If the draft does play out similar to this mock, there are definitely some WR nuggets sitting there in the 3rd round – so great job reading the draft flow and taking advantage of getting your guy at the right time. You know you hit it right when you start the run.
The film and reports on McNutt are interesting. Can’t wait to see him at the combine, but with what you had to go on, I would say he was an excellent pick in the 3rd.
"the croaking raven doth bellow for revenge."
Hamlet, William Shakespeare
I actually like stephen hill a lot.. He got about 30 catches this past season, but averaged 30 yards per catch which is no joke. I think he has some of the biggest upside of any of the mid round picks. Not saying I don’t like the Mcnutt pick because I love his game and I’m fine with that pick, but I don’t think the type of offense G tech runs is a reason not to like him at all. When you average 30 YPC he clearly is taking advantage of what is given to him and there’s only so much he can do. He will definitely need more time to develop his overall game, but the guy has some great potential. while he’s not on the level of Calvin or Thomas they have shown WR’s can come out of that system and be productive.
On Ed Reed:

Yea, Hill looks like a great talent. Read a few things though about him that he tends to have a bad case of the drops in some games (which is the last thing we need). I watched ALOT of big 10 football this previous season, and McNutt was rarely dropping the ball.
Just couldn’t overlook those numbers.
"Picture Me Rollin"
Agreed. Mcnutt would definitely be a stud. They were saying at the senior bowl he did a great job of separating which is something we really could use.

Round 4
Looking at who gets picked between 93 and 157, we better hope we get a Compensatory Pick in Round 4. Too much talent not to have a pick in there. This might be a good year to trade back in Round 1 to pick up mid round picks.
"the croaking raven doth bellow for revenge."
Hamlet, William Shakespeare
Our comp pick will be at 161 to about 164, 165 or so depending on how many of the 32 comp picks end up 4th rounders. Guys like Chris Rainey, RB from FLA, Donte Paige-Moss DE/OLB from UNC, Khesston Randall, DT from Texas, Greg Childs, WR from Arkansas would all be solid options there.
"Picture Me Rollin"
That low?
Our 5th round was 157 before comps – there can’t be that many comensatory picks?
I noticed Janzen Jackson taken at 144 which I thought might be around our 4th round comp pick.

5’6" and a buck sixty running back kicks against the Steelers? Scary.
Still sticking with my boy Devon Wylie (would have taken your Round 6 pick in this mock.)

but he’s never taken a Pittsburgh hit… those guys are a little bigger than whoever he’s been playing against these past few years.

Excellent mock Malor. Got some nice talent as well as needs. I hope WR’s fall like they did in this mock because we could get some tremendous value. Well done.

MaLor, I must say you made out pretty well in this
Although I don’t like Burfict in the first, he was the only player available who made any sense. I would have (and did) take Criner over McNutt because he is, IMO, a #1 WR in the NFL at best and at worst a very good #2 and great Red Zone threat.
Also, remember to publish your draft posts on my site. Are you going to be doing any combine stuff?

I’m a Giants fan that had input for our draft, and was in charge for the last 2 or 3 picks. Malor did an amazing job. I would know because he stole every prospect I was targeting in the later rounds.

He’s thicker and has more strength than Tandon. Does a better job of boxing out people in jump ball situations as well. Not really a burner, but I would say he’s faster than Doss as well.

hes definitely faster and stronger, so I’d say theres a lot more upside with McNutt. You cant have too many tall guys with great hands either.

As of Now
I still believe Ozzie moves out of #29. Could be up, but most likely down.
Nevertheless, great job as always, MaLoR!

Agreed. I’m starting to think we move down especially if the MLB’s fall (unless a stud really falls). There will be a lot of talent in the 2nd especially at the interior OL position. Could get some great value, meet needs, and gain some additional picks.

This draft was very strange because so many of the DT’s and DE’s went in the early 2nd, and that isn’t going to happen come April. Too many ILB went in the first, WR went higher than I think they will. Doubt any TE’s go as high as they did, CB’s like Minnefield and Gilmore could very well go in the 1st.
We will see, so much time left for evaluations.
"Picture Me Rollin"
Agreed. It’s so tough to gauge what position groups will be over drafted and which will fall. Just have to wait and see what happens.

yeah I'm starting to feel the same way
Burfict really scares me, he has gone from a top 10 prospect a few months ago to maybe a 2nd rounder. The other biggest position of need, interior o line, can easily be found outside of the 1st round, and it would be nice to pick up some picks in the 3rd or 4th.
Have You Looked
at Burfict’s tape and compared it to Ray’s 1995 season from Miami, if possible? I would be curious how the two looked side-by-side.

burfict guesses and runs around blocks
thats Mayock’s big knock on him, and he says hes not a fan “at all.”
A lot of it can be taught but there is the chance of drafting a guy with “football-lexia” as Harbs would say.
"And, don’t get me started on Joe Flacco," Simms continued. "Did the experts watch the game? Joe didn’t miss a throw, not one. I watched every play. Every time he had the opportunity, he hit the guy.

ha.
So I’ll bite on the Burfict pick. I’ll do that by quoting Mike Mayock:
Q. Speaking of Vontaze Burfict, do you
see any way, given the liabilities that come with
him, he gets taken in the first round and in that,
assess maybe how badly he hurt himself with
his final year at Arizona State?
MIKE MAYOCK: I think some of the
attention throughout the media with all the
penalties and all those issues, I think they’re a little
bit too much. I just watched a bunch of his tape
the other day, and I said forget the penalties and
all is that stuff that surrounds him. What kind of
football player is he? And I came away
unimpressed.
From my perspective, if he gets a chance
at a blow-up hit where he can just knock somebody
into the next century, he’s going to take it and it’s
going to look really good. That’s where he’s
impressive. When he sees something and comes
downhill and blows it up, it’s really good.
However, the other major percentage of
the time is his instincts aren’t good. He gets
enveloped by big bodies. He runs around end
blocks. For a big, strong guy, he’s nowhere near
as good at the point of attack as I thought he would
be. So that’s even before you factor in all the other
elements.
So from my perspective, I don’t see first
round at all.
Mayock’s seen a lot more tape that any of us, and he’s talked with lots of coaches. I would put a lot of money (if I had it) that we will pass on him as will every other team.
Burfict can be taught the stuff Mayock says he’s lacking in. If Ozzie trades out of first and gets a low to mid second, I hope we draft him.
daytime commentator. night time ninja.
Agreed. I think if MLB’s drop it would be ideal to trade back in the 2nd and grab him if he’s there. A lot less risk and potential huge value along with gaining other picks.

The guy definitely has unique potential, if not ability, at the present moment.
"And, don’t get me started on Joe Flacco," Simms continued. "Did the experts watch the game? Joe didn’t miss a throw, not one. I watched every play. Every time he had the opportunity, he hit the guy.

For those who think it might have been a better choice to pick Mike Adams at 29, I have been reading a few reports indicating that he is going to be a RT in the NFL. Even some Buckeye fans said that if he is the same player that they saw at times in the previous years, than he is not going to be capable of playing LT in the NFL.
And one thing we do not need is another LT turned RT.
"Picture Me Rollin"
Draft stock will rise and fall between now and the draft but definitely a guy to watch at the combine. He gets rated highly pretty consistently for his footwork and athleticism, but as you said, he is not perfect or people would be lining up for him in the top 5.
"the croaking raven doth bellow for revenge."
Hamlet, William Shakespeare
One thing about Adamas and a few other OLs
Is that they could line up at LG this next year then move outside (say Adams) or to center (Konz) in year 2.
Agreed. I think he is definitely a guy to watch. He was pretty inconsistent, but certainly has all the tools to make a great LT. LT’s are hard to find so I think someone will jump on him before he even makes it to us. From a physical standpoint he is more gifted than Oher was, but Oher is probably the harder worker.
