Re: [BaltimoRavens] Ravens get extra picks

these picks come from loosing free agents to other teams. Thomas was consider a
top notch player so the reward was good for the Ravens.
Mullitalo,Pashos,Mughelli where starters on other teams in 2007.
Its a good system, the NFL and MLB do this, harder to notice in the MLB
because the talent pool is more abroad.
