‘Near Perfect’ Draft, Perriman Better Than Torrey, Maxx Offensive Rookie Of Year

We’re used to high grades for General Manager Ozzie Newsome in Baltimore the Monday following each draft.

“Just another ho-hum brilliant draft in Baltimore,” wrote Rob Rang of CBS Sports

“This was a near perfect draft for the Ravens,” added Jamison Hensley of ESPN.
