Re: Michael Oher?
Should be easy enough to replace that production, or lackthereof. I fully believe Ricky Wagner can suck just as equally as Oher at RT, and cost a fraction of the cap space! ;)

Re: Michael Oher?
I am quite possibly the charter member of the Michael Oher boo-bird club around here...
But now that he will no longer be playing football in Purple, I have nothing bad to say about him. Seemed like a nice guy, wish him the best now that he is no longer hurting our football team.

Re: Michael Oher?
He delays that quick start by 1/2 a second and actually stays with his assignment, Oher still with the Ravens. Hope the Ravens get a player with Ohers ability to play every game, it was a plus.

Re: Michael Oher?
don't get the hate against Oher guy who was durable, worked hard, did anything the coaches asked him to do, didn't omplain, played to the whistle. Who's to say dumbass Moeller and DUMB ASS Castillo wasn't at fault for Oher's poor Technique? Hell we see even Yanda looking like crap this year, under Matsko Oher had some solid seasons.

Re: Michael Oher?
The "anyone would be better" logic doesn't always work. If you think that Michael Oher is the absolute worst that an RT could get, you are clearly not remembering Ethan Brooks.
Michael was a huge disappointment, but don't think for a second that we can't get worse at that position."Chin up, chest out."

Re: Michael Oher?
I don't believe the Ravens made a bad decision by allowing Oher to test the market, and ultimately sign with Tennessee. While Oher was moved around on the line quite a bit, perhaps causing some delayed progression at a particular position, I still don't think he lived up to his 1st round tender, nor was he any better than an average right tackle.
I understand a team can't have Pro Bowlers at every position on the field, however my gut tells me the Ravens can do better for less.
From all that I've read, Mike is a hard worker, gives his best effort in practice, and is a good team mate. Every team could use more players with Oher's work ethic.
