I am not sure that Floyd will be there when the Ravens pick. He is thought to be one of the top three receivers in the draft. If Baltimore really wants him they may have to trade up to get him. Is he worth it? I guess you never know until you see him on an NFL field but he is an imposing figure. At 6'3" 224 lbs he has the size to be a play maker at the next level. I hate comparisons but to me he kind of reminds me of Marques Colston from the Saints.
