Jared Gaither for our second round pick?

Pocket$ $traight · 03-29-2010, 10:15 PM

I would make that move. I would like a lower pick back, though.

johno · 03-29-2010, 11:01 PM

sure, we need someone for LT. i dont care if he fits the zbs or not, we need guys that can keep any qb we start upright. it certainly opens up our options at 4......

If they think that he'd fit well I'd be all for it if someone doesn't drop to us in the 2nd.

I would be skeptical about anything JLC says even if he told me the sky was blue.

Its black right now so your right to question him.

Draft Okung...and bring in a young hungry guy who will be molded into a true "Redskin" by Shanahan...instead of guy the ravens dont want.......BUT if we make the mistake of drafting a QB @ 4......snatch him up pronto!!!

Jared Gaither is far better than any OT we could hope to get between rounds 2-7
Hes a proven player thats still young, and hes shown the ability to hold down the left side. MAke the trade, a 2nd rounder for him is a STEAL.........

How can you call a 5th round pick who has started for the last 2 years an underachiever?

Because for his talents he should have been a higher pick than 5th round in the supplemental draft?

That said though, he really only started playing football his last year of high school.

Pretty easily actually. When someone has that much talent and doesn't want to work to get better or fulfill those talents, I call that an underachiever. What do you call it?

Not sure of their depth situation but the fact the Ravens are willing to let a young lineman get away like this is telling.

This. I say pass. My Spidey sense is tingling.

All I've read are some vague accusations about him not being keen on practice at college and not being up to scratch with his grades. I've not seen any criticism of his actual play, either at college level or in the pros.

I've also read that the Ravens would be very happy to keep him but they do have a ready-made replacement for him in Oher.

He ending up declaring for the supplemental draft because he would have been ineligible to play for the Terps that year due to grades.

I'd take him...and another OT at #4. We'd be set.
