Tuesday Ravens links: Interest in D-line prospects, draft developments

With Arthur Jones gone to Indianapolis, the Ravens could look internally to fill the position. But as The Carroll County Times' Matt Zenitz writes, there is some interest within the franchise to draft a defensive lineman this weekend.

Zenitz lists two potential fits for the Ravens, one of which is a first-round prospect and the other is a second-rounder.

CSNBaltimore.com's Clifton Brown addresses this and more as he lists five developments that could affect the Ravens during the draft.
