The Baltimore Ravens have decided to fix their problems at the cornerback position by taking Jimmy Smith as their first round pick in the 2011 NFL draft. If you remember the playoff game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers last year, you’ll understand why. If Webb didn’t get burned deep on a pass late in the game, the Ravens would have played an AFC championship game in Baltimore.
I am very satisfied with this first round pick for the Ravens. Let’s just hope that Jimmy Smith lives up to his potential as a shutdown cornerback.
