Just saw the movie. I think we missed on Michael Oher.
Rak is great but Oher is something special not to mention our team needs.

I thought about that but the more I hear Rak speak the more I love this kid he is a man and I think he's going to be a great leader. We already know he a hell of a player when used right...Lot of things the Skins have done wrong but I think they got this one right.

Yeah you gotta take Rak at 13, your blessed he's there to pick.

Just wish Cerrato could've swung us another 1st and snagged Oher

Imagine what we would have been able to do, had Jason, or Todd, had more time to throw the ball instead of peeling themselves off the ground. :idea:

I think Oher would have addressed a greater need, and we might have fared better in the W-L column.

Of course, if THAT had happened...Vinny might still be here. :puke:

That's right, you got to break some eggs to make an omlete.

Passing on Rak would have been a mistake. Look at Smith in Cincy. They drafted him higher than Oher and then he held out. Then when he came in, he broke is foot.

Take a look at this video and then tell me what you think about Jason Campbell.

Same thing a lot of us have said all along...but a QB who doesn't spend the majority of his time on his back on Sundays WILL fare better.

He'll never play a down for the Skins.

We have a great player in Rak. So glad we drafted him.
Before the draft I was calling for Everette Brown instead. I am so glad we drafted Rak instead.

I will say that the Oher story is a feel good story. Kudos to the family who took him in. Glad he is enjoying much success. Still I have no regrets we got Rak.
