The OT situation
Alright, so here's what we have:
LT - KO, Oher
RT - Oher, Jah Reid, KO
FA - McKinnie
UDFA possible:
Marquardt
Gaines
Faulk
Fragel
Nixon
The lowdown: Can someone from the FO just come out and say "KO is our left tackle plan"? I feel like they keep trying to say he's "an option", but if they wanted REAL competition for him, they would've grabbed one in the middle rounds, instead of focusing on competition for LG and C.
I have to think McKinnie negotiations will happen this week and he's signed shortly. I just can't see the plan being KO vs Oher. We HAVE to have someone legit to compete. And I know there's FA round 2, but what LT will be there, really?.

Re: The OT situation
Either sign McKinnie/Starks to play LT or sign Winston/Clabo to play RT and slide Oher over. Playing KO anywhere other than LG is not an option in my opinion; the pocket created by KO-Birk-Yanda allowed Joe to step up and make those incredible throws.

Re: The OT situation
Well, I don't want Oher at LT, so it'd be McKinnie or Starks. I like Winston though.

Re: The OT situation
I was kind've hoping we'd grab a OT prospect with final pick, but we went with CB. Huff.
So, now here's hoping we can grab one UDFA. 5 picks left, Nixon, marquardt, Faulk all still there..

This feels like we are tasting the cake before it's baked ....

Ozzie Newsome on possibly adding a veteran tackle: "We'll have somebody lined up at left tackle." #Ravens
The team is NOT set yet. Give it time, folks.

Re: The OT situation
Newsome did say, only thing he wishes they could've added but didn't is TE.
So OT was never REALLY something he was looking for. Hmm...Like I said, sounds like the plan was KO at LT all along...unless this "lined up" option was just the guy unless BPA dictated a better OT..

Re: The OT situation
Exactly and as I posted before, there are 10 teams who don't have enough cap space to sign their draft picks. Another wave of FA is coming and then there will be cut downs in the fall. There are UDFA and still some FA available; lots of options.
If the season started today it'd be KO but it doesnt start today
