With receivers Mike Wallace and Michael Campanaro possibly being lost to free agency and fellow wideout Jeremy Maclin a potential salary cap casualty, the Baltimore Ravens may soon be left with precious few internal options at the position.
Charles Davis of NFL Network joined Glenn Clark Radio Feb. 13 to discuss the options the Ravens will sift through ahead of the NFL Draft April 26-28. Davis' favorite receiver expected to go in rounds two or three is DJ Chark, who played 25 games for Louisiana State the past three years and participated in the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Ala., in late January.
Chark caught 40 passes for 874 yards and four touchdowns as a senior last fall, an average of 21.9 yards per catch. That was an improvement over his junior season, when caught 26 balls for 466 yards. Davis pointed to LSU's system -- which is traditionally run-heavy -- and the Tigers' inconsistent quarterback play as reasons why Chark's numbers may have been underwhelming. Davis said he saw Chark as "that long-limbed guy, real loose, real elusive" during Senior Bowl week, physical traits that may portend success in the pro game.
