Are you sure Mike?

 

So far, the best rookie from this year's Ravens draft class has been guard/tackle Kelechi Osemele, the second-round pick out of Iowa State. He may not be starting now, but he will be soon, possibly in the season opener against the Cincinnati Bengals.

 

Yes, Osemele is that good. He has great size, foot speed and athleticism. For a young player, he has shown poise and experience in learning the game and picking up blitzes. Plus, he has those long arms, which allows him to keep defensive linemen away from his body.

 

Osemele is so talented that he can play left tackle if needed. I'm assuming the Ravens will start Bryant McKinnie at left tackle and Michael Oher on the right, but Osemele might start at left guard. He certainly has had a stronger preseason than either McKinnie or left guard Bobbie Williams.

 

Regardless, the Ravens can't keep him out of the lineup. He is already one of their better linemen.

Yup Osemele makes up for the disappointing pre-season Upshaw has been having. Upshaw had a real chance to shine but came in overweight and quickly got a minor injury. He's due to play a lot Thursday night. He'd better bring his "A" game.

KO will never surpass Oher in false start/holding penalties department. That honors all his.

 

 

Oher's false starts are due to his quickness, even Harbs came out and said it, when they look at game films Oher is not false starting, he is just that split second faster than the rest on the line..H

 

He is going to give these replacement refs fits, if hes that fast.
