Video and scouting on the Ravens '08 Draft Class

No. 18: Joe Flacco, QB, University of Delaware, 6'6 3/8", 236

No. 55: Ray Rice, RB, Rutgers University, 5'8", 199

No. 71: Tavares Gooden, ILB, University of Miami, 6'1 1/4", 234

No. 86: Thomas Zbikowski, S, Notre Dame, 5'11 1/2", 211

No. 99: Oniel Cousins, OG, UTEP, 6'3 5/8", 308

No. 106: Marcus Smith, WR, New Mexico, 6'1 1/2", 221

No. 125: Traded to Oakland Raiders for CB Fabian Washington. Scouting Report on Washington from ESPN Insiders...

Washington has adequate size for the position to go along with excellent speed, quickness and agility. He has very quick feet when backpedaling and does a very good job of keeping his chin over his toes and his weight evenly distributed. He can be a little choppy in his pedal but still manages to extend the cushion well. He can plant and drive on the ball with top quickness and is unrestricted in his transition. He has a good burst to close on the ball and has the hand-eye coordination to make plays on the ball. He is still a bit raw on route recognition when in man off or zone but has enough explosive quickness to recover and maintain relationship. He has good leaping ability to challenge taller receivers to the ball. He is not timid about coming up to force the ball in run support but is not a strong tackler, although he will get the job done in that area. Washington has a chance to be a shutdown corner with more experience and work.

No. 133: David Hale, OT, Weber St., 6'5 3/4", 314

No. 206: Haruki Nakamura, S, Cincinnati, 5'10 1/2", 203 VIDEO

No. 215: Justin Harper, WR, Virginia Tech, 6'3 1/2", 213

No. 240: Allen Patrick, RB, Oklahoma, 6'0 3/4", 198 VIDEO
