Baltimore Ravens choose Tim Williams at No. 78


The Ravens stopped Tim Williams' draft slide in the heart of the next round.

Baltimore selected the Alabama outdoors linebacker while using No. 78 overall pick inside the 2017 Nfl Draft.

The landing place has come about as not surprising, as gm Ozzie Newsome features a well-known curiosity about Crimson Tide stars.

Manley was rated No. 42 on Nfl Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah's report on the draft's top 50 prospects. Although Manley was broadly considered a preliminary-round talent, he tucked due to unsuccessful drug tests, an arrest for transporting a pistol without any permit last September along with problems with Alabama's defensive schemes at occasions.

That mentioned, Jeremiah brags about his ideal length, twitch and power becoming an edge rusher. His spin move is especially impressive.

"Hell from the rusher," one scout told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "Wins with get-off and bend and technique. They can get skinny. Not just a total liability in the run but lacks size, strength at the objective of attack."

In Manley without any. 47 overall pick Tyus Bowser, the Ravens have added some sports outdoors linebackers while using possible ways to switch the departed Elvis Dumervil as well as the declining Terrell Suggs.
