Can The Ravens Get Lucky At No. 29?
There's no guarantee that the Ravens will stand pat with the 29th overall pick in this year's NFL Draft. After all, Baltimore has made first-round trades five of the last six years. But, if the Ravens do make a go of it at No. 29, what sort of talent might they be able to score?
Here's a look back at what teams have gotten at lucky(?) No. 29 during each of the last 10 drafts, including the Ravens themselves, who took Ben Grubbs at No. 29 in 2007.
