BobbyC81 Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 He's considered a young up-and-coming OT stud & the Ravens only tendered him for a 1st. They have Oher so they don't really need Gaither. I'd try & deal next year's #1. Then, they don't have to worry about a run on OTs in this draft and can focus on the best player available, whether that's McLain or Dan Williams, etc.

Deep2Moulds46 Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 I think this draft is overrated at tackle. After Okung, who in my opinion is a notch below Jake Long and Joe Thomas anyway, I see a bunch of physical specimens with character or motivational flaws......or I see guys who have great work ethic, but lack the necessary ability to be dominant at the NFL level.

Celtic_soulja Posted March 26, 2010 Posted March 26, 2010 Jamal Brown...Doug Free...Gaither...any of those would be AWESOME...too bad none of them would happen...
earthtobrint Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 I wouldn't trade next year's first round draft pick for anything. That's our Jake Locker ticket.

Good young tackles, whether they play the right side or left, are not usually offered on the trade market. When Gaither was at the Univ. of Maryland he was replaced by a less talented player. The HC said that he would rather play a lesser player who worked hard than play a more talented player who was less diligent in his work habits. Gaither then decided to leave school and was available in the supplemental draft. In college, Gaither was considered a very talented player who didn't play up to his immense potential because of his immaturity. If Gaither is available for a trade it is because there is an issue with him. The Bills need to keep their own high draft picks and draft their own players. That is the right way to build a quality team.

That is the right way to build a quality team. I agree with your thoughts. A first rounder for an OT who no longer is viewed is an important to their core of players is probably not wise to surrender a high pick. Save your picks and draft your own guys, or use them to trade back or up in the draft.

Close his thread before he gets any credit!!!! Actually...if you look at those threads...I started 2 of them, 3 months apart...yes, I should have just added the 2nd to the 1st, but it was different information and a different topic. And if you look a little closer...I was the first to bring the topic up! I was not trying to "take credit for it," although it was my idea first...even back when he came into the supplementary draft, I said we should get him. I was simply stating, what EVERYBODY says ALL THE TIME..."USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION." There were already FIVE posts started about Jared Gaither...why start another? Just like ALL the McNabb threads...MOST of them got CLOSED! Nice try though !@#$!

Maybe if we get Jared Gaither he will give you some cash flow and buy you season tix for life and get you locker room access after the games.

Oh wait....
mob16151 Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 I'd rather go after Bushrod instead. He's tendered at a 2nd round pick. You might be able to get him for a 3rd in trade. And if you can't trade for him just give him a contract with a poison pill and voila' starting LT for a 2nd round pick.
