Tyler Beard: Reuben Foster

Obviously, this pick depends on how far Foster drops in the draft, but it’s talent the Ravens can’t pass up on.

Foster has hurt his stock with immaturity issues and a failed drug test, which will have teams passing on the Alabama product.

Orr’s injury put a question mark on would play next to Mosley this season and the in-house options aren’t that exciting.

Draft Analysis : Ravens Can't Pass Up On Reuben Foster

Newsome has a history of taking Alabama defenders and Foster and would in perfectly next to Mosley. The duo could prove to be one of the best linebacking cores in the league if Foster is able to continue to high-motor play.

His tape is incredible, as it’s hard to find plays where he isn’t the first one to the football on the run. The elite stats also sum of the case of Foster being one of the best defensive players in college football last season.

It’ll be a red-flag pick for the front office, but Foster’s talent is one-of-a-kind. He’d provide another physical presence on defense and would be the right pick at No. 16
