He's a pretty solid LT, actually.

Oher has tremendous upside, and the Raven used a first round pick on him, so they must feel they need to move him to maximize his value.

But at the same time, they used a first round pick on Gaither.

But I think I'd bring in Gaither and let he amd Albert compete for teh LT position.

I honestly believe, if Albert has dedicated himself to learning and improving technique through this offseason (and I believe he has), that he wins the battle, and you have a guy in Gaither with the athletic ability and size to be a dominating RT.

Though why the Ravens wouldn't simply flip flop positions between Oher and Gaither would be a head scratcher to me.

I'm sold. But still nothing more than the 50.

It would take someone special for my old man to advocate any chance of Albert not playing LT next year. No one on this board was higher on him before the draft than milkman. No one.

Gaither was a 5th round supplemental.

I'd probably do it for 2b if Baltimore also sent us a 7th rounder.

Milk, Gaither was not a first rounder. I think he was selected with the supplemental pick in the 4th round a few years ago.

I'd part with 2B. He's 23 years old. He's performed very well in the NFL already. If he was old, I could see not wanting to part with it, but a Gaither/Albert left side would be a pretty nice thing to have.

And oh yeah, it would ensure that Okung or Baluga is NOT a Chief.

Yea, sounds like a good idea to me.....

Competition is always good.

Huh? I'm pretty sure he was in the Supp. draft a couple years ago.

Oh shit, you're right.

Reading comprehension issue on my part.

We're all subject to dumbassery.

I'm going to verbally assault myself now.

Yeah, thanks.

I'm on board.

Can't help but wonder if the Ravens are concerned about his health/injuries:

Allow me. :cuss:

I have never been opposed to the idea of bringing in competition.

What I am opposed to is using the #5 overall on a guy like Okung or Baluga, neither of whom has the potetial that Albert has.

The next sentence brought to you in Sacopoo vision.

"Okung or Baluga at LT, Albert to LG, and Gaither to RT. You can never spend too many high picks on OL."

Jared Gaither is better than any tackle in this draft. He's also the same age as Okung. I'd probably do this move for 2a if Baltimore would send us a 6th this year and a 4th in 2011.

You useless ****ing dumbass, wtf is wrong with you?

If you had done your research and paid the **** attention when you did, you would have seen he was a supplemental 5th round pick.

I hope Robbie Alomar pisses in your Brandy.

****ing dumbass.
