16. Baltimore Ravens

There is a buzz going around of late that Tim Williams might be in trouble because of rumored off-the-field concerns. Namely a drug-related issue that also hampered other recent pass rush prospects like Randy Gregory and Shane Ray. It’s feared he could drop all the way out of the 1st round. Truth be told if the player is talented and proven enough, somebody will take a chance on him. Ask Warren Sapp (seven failed drug tests at Miami). <p>The Baltimore Ravens know their linebacker position is in need of a serious makeover. Terrell Suggs and Elvis Dumervil are running out of gas and it’s starting to show with the pass rusher. Ozzie Newsome has to get his defense a young edge man he can build the next defense around. Williams is the absolute ideal fit for what they need and Newsome has already had success with Alabama linebackers before. C.J. Mosley can attest to that.</p>. OLB. Alabama. Tim Williams . 16. player. 26
