Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
You've got a point. An OL is an ensemble. Like a band, the more it plays together, the tighter it plays. That alone is why I'd like to see a long term solution at LT (a LT LT, if you will). Let's find a guy at LT (it could be McKinnie or Oher) and let him play there consistently, so that the OL gels. The merry-go-round rotation is a bad way to go on any positions on the OL. The Ravens like OL guys who can go at multiple spots (e.g. Yanda, KO, Harewood, or the guy they just drafted from Wisconsin) which I suppose is good for depth, but I'd like to see as much continuity on our OL as injuries allow.

Re: Is having a great LT overrated?
Of course we'd all like to see a long term solution @ LT. That's easier said than done though. The Ravens consistently pick at the bottom of the draft, so our chances for a franchise LT are non-existent. Note the top three LTs were chosen within the first four picks. Teams try to keep their top LTs too, with large long-term contracts. That's why the Ravens have to sign guys like McKinnie or move Oher. With the success of the Ravens, we have no other choice... Bc
