I'm sure that a lot of Ravens fans were disappointed that Ozzie Newsome chose to give up the first-round pick for a boatload of draft picks, but they're probably going to feel a lot better when the names start popping up Friday night and Saturday.
Ozzie and Eric DeCosta wanted to regain some draft position lost in the Anquan Boldin deal, and they succeeded in recovering some middle-round picks that improved their original position in those rounds. They'll have seven picks over the next two days, barring a deal to move up from the 43rd pick in the second round.
Obviously, there were some players taken just ahead of No. 25 who would have been attractive, but once they were gone, the Denver deal made sense, especially with the Ravens finding themselves in an auction situation that late in the first round.
