The Ravens are displaying interest in South Carolina offensive guard A.J. Cann.
That included a predraft visit with Cann, according to sources.
Cann was put through drills during the Gamecocks' Pro Day workout by Ravens offensive line coach Juan Castillo. Cann was also worked out by offensive line coaches from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Minnesota Vikings, Philadelphia Eagles and New Orleans Saints.
Cann is a projected second-round draft target for NFL teams.
The Ravens have Marshal Yanda and Kelechi Osemele under contract for this season, but both are scheduled to be free agents next year.
Cann also worked out at center during his Pro Day, where he bench pressed 225 pounds 30 times and had a 32 1/2 inch vertical leap and a 9-1 broad jump. The 6-foot-2, 313-pounder had a left calf strain at the NFL scouting combine.
Cann was a four-year starter at South Carolina, making 51 starts at left guard.
He was an All-Southeastern Conference selection and a second-team All-American.
A team captain, Cann was a three-time academic honor roll selection.
Cann was a high school All-American.
