Jah Reid

[WinnipegRaven]

SO I've heard it mentioned Jah could be one of the best sleeper picks in the draft... haven't seen much on him posted here....

Agree, disagree? whats the skinny on this kid?

Check out the Draft section. There's a thread about him there. Most members here seem to really like the pick, as do I. He looks like he could provide immediate help.

If all goes well he'll be our starting RT.

I read his combine profile, and a lot of scouts were impressed with him. He's a big guy too, which plays in his favor.

I do not understand where all of the "Oher is best at RT" talk went. As I recall Oher struggled at LT last year. I understand that he will improve the more he plays there, but his frame and arm length (or lack thereof) would say that he is destined for RT and will continue to be a mediocre LT if he remains there. As you can probably tell I support Oher moving back to RT where he can bullrush more as opposed to dropping back to pass block on the left side. I still think Gaither should be LT or some other FA or a draft pick next year, I just dont think Oher is our future LT.

He will, and is getting better. However, I agree, he is more of your prototypical RT, plus he was great on the right side. I really hope we can bring back Gaither, he is best for that side, especially since that would let Reid get some experience under his belt.

Well, Reid certainly won't be our LT, so Oher needs to stay put.Besides, Oher will be just fine at LT; I have no worries there.

Im not sold on him being the starting RT until late in the season, he's way better than Cousins is but he still has some things to work on before facing guys like Woodley and Dunlap.
