That's why I say a player like this only comes around once in a great while. Like Matt Birk, you don't find too many as good as he is at his position. I think you could say there was more than one weak link on this line last year. For THIS team I think Mack would be a bigger help. That's my opinion. Aren't you the same guy who said Mathews wasn't first round talent but had seen very little film of him? That's part of player analysis you talked about in another thread. If you don't think Rabach and the middle of our line was part of the collapse last year...well I just don't know what to tell you. We'll just agree to disagree about Mack and how much he can help this team. Alex Mack Scouting Report - 2009 NFL Draft Prospect

This discussion isn't about me against you or about me against Mack. I think Mack is also a great player, but there's no reason to ignore his weaknesses to build him up. And in the same way, you also cannot ignore the weaknesses on the redskins. The weakness for the redskins last year was the offensive unit, more specifically, the offensive line; and more specific than that, the right tackle spot. Rabach was the least of the redskins worries on the offensive line last season, considering the injuries and the play of both Heyer and Jansen.

And about Clay Matthews, I could be wrong about him (so-called experts are wrong all the time). But I've seen enough of him to know that this guy is one dimensional. If you want to have a discussion to support that he's a first rounder; that's fine, but if you want to argue with me about how much film i've watched of him - don't do it.

I can confidently say that you don't know what you are talking about, re: OL issues. We have a bunch of problems on the right side of the line and need the best and quickest solution that we can get, be that Mack or someone else.

Whatever. I can confidently say you don't know jack.

Right, but my long posts here usually 1) have a point, and 2) usually rely on some reasoning, and not hearsay. I wish not to know jack about the hearsay that's out there.

Why? I would think how much you've seen of a player would be an important part of being able to intelligently discuss him.

Yeah, I've seen enough to go by. I'm interested ... what can you intelligently discuss about him?

Like Mack, he's the man, he's agressive and he has faults but can be explained away?

I don't know enough about him to really discuss him.
