DeCosta Loves Mind Games of NFL Draft

Eric DeCosta loved playing board games, such as Risk and Monopoly, when he was growing up in Massachusetts.
He views strategy of the NFL Draft much same the way, except with one caveat.
“To me, this is a game, but it’s not a game we can afford to lose,” he said.
Like a high-stakes poker player, DeCosta revealed little about the Ravens draft strategy at the annual “Liars’ Luncheon” at the Under Armour Performance Center in Owings Mills.
Instead, he admitted the annual event is a good way to get some of the opposition off the Ravens’ “scent.”
It’s almost like those board games he used to play.
