One of the big moves of the offseason was the Baltimore Ravens not being able to keep three-time Pro Bowl center Tyler Linderbaum.
Now with the Las Vegas Raiders , the Ravens have lost their stud lineman and so far this offseason, haven't replaced him, and that's problematic. Of course, there is still time before the draft, and if the Ravens still can't find a suitable option, then the draft is where the franchise could look. And for NFL.
com's Gennaro Filice, in his latest mock draft, he has the Ravens taking Spencer Fano at pick No. 14. "In the wake of Tyler Linderbaum’s bank-breaking departure from Baltimore in free agency, the Ravens have a gaping hole at center," Filice wrote .
