Ross is the third Wolverine linked to the Baltimore Ravens on draft weekend, joining fourth-round pick Willie Henryand undrafted free agent Mario Ojemudia.
Here is a snippet of our draft profile on Ross:
Strengths
Ross was inconsistent during his Michigan career, but always proved to be solid against the run and a linebacker that plays to the whistle on every snap. He showed solid skills in pass coverage, namely in zone. He has a good first step and a nose for the football.
Weaknesses
Marginal athlete. Not a pass rusher and only three career sacks at Michigan. Not suited for outside linebacker in the NFL. Reaction time is slow and is not a player that can move sideline to sideline all that well. Saw the field less as his career went on.
