That's what some folks at today's pro day seem to think. Per Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports.

I would think that's what that means. I don't know, I'd be a little surprised. But I don't see Te'o slipping that far, so I assume that means Bostic is moving up. If his 4.50 was legit today in those conditions, it could help him a lot.

Early-mid 2nd maybe. I don't see Te'o going in the first 50 picks.

Teo is short, slow, and a crazy person. I wouldn't be shocked to see him fall like a rock.

I would hope so. Those are two teams I'd like seeing our defensive players going to.

Bostic is a beast, and made a HUGE jump this year. I think he's gonna be a fantastic NFL LB'er.
It's all about the Orange and Blue.

Doubtful. Irvin was a pass rusher. That skill alone can move you into the first round, even if you don't do anything else well. ILB is the opposite, in terms of value.
I think Te'o will go first b/c he is more likely to have a team or two fall in love with him from last season, but Bostic may be more highly regarded by the vast majority of NFL teams, even though ILB isn't a glamour position that gets highly drafted.
Te'o's fall is somewhat surprising (who could have foreseen this fake "girlfriend" hoax?) but running in the 4.8s and getting embarrassed in the biggest game of the year will do that. Bostic's rise isn't shocking, b/c I (and others) thought he was really good last year and undervalued nationally (and even in the SEC).

They will move up to #1 overall to take Te'o, then explain that his film, his villainous personna, and his 3.8 40 all made the choice easy.

Bostic never should've been "behind" Te'o IMO...

Minter is the best MLB in the draft, IMO.

Minter is arguably the smartest/most instinctive, but not the most talented.

I agree with this, but maybe not in terms of projection. That said, a lot of less talented guys are very, very productive MLBs right now.

I agree but being a 5'10-5'11 LB is going to hurt him. Bostic is an ideal 3-4 ILB. Could see Bmore moving back into the second round to take him. JMO Bostic won't last past pick 40. Read he interviewed and tested well at combine.

The Ravens definitely need LB's.

take one early in the draft and use a pick in the later rounds but the other fills will come thru cheaper FA...DJ Willimas or Dansby. Rumor that Ray Mauluga and Ravens have been talking since late yesterday and deal could be reached if he passes physcial. Would be a nice fit in 3-4 and way cheaper than 8 million that Ellbee got. Ray Lewis and Pat Willis are only 3-4 ILB that should ever sniff 8-10 million a year.

Would love to make a trade for B Spikes...he's in his contract year and you know NE isn't going to pay him.
Couldn't believe his contract amount. Guy is putting in work for pennies.
