26. The Baltimore Ravens still have one of the best defensive units in the NFL. They’ve done a good job of bringing in players to replace the original greats from the past. ILB C.J. Mosley has excelled in the place of Ray Lewis and S Eric Weddle has replaced Ed Reed. <p>The Ravens also have three big boys up front in the mold of Haloti Ngata and Tony Siragusa. Now, it looks like edge-rusher is what needs a touch-up as Terrell Suggs is close to done. Now is the perfect time for him to play alongside a youngster he can show the way.</p> <p>And that youngster should be Charles Harris out of Missouri right here at No. 17 overall. They not only find pass-rushing talent at Missouri but they teach those guys how to get after the QB. So Harris will be ready to make a big impact right away while learning from Suggs.</p> <p>When Suggs, the last original, is ready to retire, he’ll leave pass-rushing in Harris’ capable hands. But first, they have business to handle in the AFC North, trying to win the division. And Harris will have the Ravens much more equipped to do that in 2017. </p>. OLB. Missouri. Charles Harris. 17. player
