Day Two - Rounds 5-7 - Baltimore Beatdown

Day Two - Rounds 5-7

Here are the finals picks for the Baltimore Ravens (Note: The Ravens traded away their 5th round pick):
Round 6: Haruki Nakamura, S (Cincinnati)
See his YouTube video here.
Round 7: Justin Harper, WR (VA Tech)
See his YouTube video here.
Round 7: Allen Patrick, RB (Oklahoma)
See his YouTube video here.

Notes: Don't know anything about any of these players, but do know that none of them are cornerbacks! I actually thought Nakamura played "Hiro" in the TV hit series, "Heros!" At least Harper went to a major program.

With someone like the local product, Erin Henderson from Maryland still available, I'm not too sure why they didn't make the popular pick and take a flyer on him. But then again, I haven't understood much of what they did all weekend. Of course, as former Ravens coach Brian Billick said, "that's why the players play, the coaches coach and the writers write!"

As far as other teams' strange picks, the Packers just made a strange one, when they took QB Matt Flynn of LSU, after they took Brian Brohm and still have Aaron Rodgers on their roster!

Justin Harper...

I don't know too much about Harper either. Has good size so maybe there is some potential. Honestly though, I would rather have Adarius Bowman, Devone Bess, Jason Rivers, Dorien Bryant, Darius Reynaud and Mario Urrutia are all better than Harper. All of those players are WRs. So I don't what the Ravens saw in Harper.

I would've like for the Ravens to draft Johnny Dingle(DE), Wallace Gilberry(DE), Tommy Blake(DE), DJ Wolfe(CB), Justin McKinney(CB), or Glenn Sharpe(CB). Big fan of Johnny Dingle. The Ravens really didn't address their defensive needs besides Fabian Washington.
