I don't think anyone hates Oher. Mack is a very good player who could start at center or guard and Brace or Barwin would help our defense. We need all the help we can get.

ya macks a great player, but not at 13 unless we trade down, Brace though is only good because he played next to Raji (imo) and Barwin isn't as good as Brandon williams Texas Tech DE who led the Big 12 in sacks with 13

I also don't hate Oher or Orakpo, but I think with slim pickings in FA, I would try to fill our needs as much as possible in the draft but still be able to pick top talent. If nothing else, I am happy with Michael Oher or Brian Orakpo but if given the chance for a trade to a later pick in the 1st round plus extra pick(s) (2nd or 3rd etc...), I would take that option first.

Also, Nflnick stated some interesting prospects who we can look if we can trade down onto late first - late second.
