As excited as I was to learn today that the Ravens gained 4 compensatory picks in this upcoming Mays NFL draft, I did have to temper my enthusiasm some when I reviewed the players who were picked in the exact same spots the past 6 years. Granted, only 1 of them was actually selected by Ozzie & Co. (gasp! Oniel Cousins) and people are saying this years draft might be the deepest talent-wise as any in the past 30 years, but it does make you wonder how many of these bonus picks will pan out in the years to come for our team. 2013 99 Nico Johnson Chiefs LB Alabama 134 Sanders Commings Chiefs DB Georgia 138 Tharold Simon Seahawks DB Louisiana State 175 Jamoris Slaughter Browns DB Notre Dame 2012 99 Ben Jones Texans C Georgia 134 Greg Childs Vikings WR Arkansas 138 Tahir Whitehead Lions LB Temple 175 Blair Walsh Vikings K Georgia 2011 99 K.J.
