This would be a step in the right direction for VC, and give JZ more to work with. I honestly think that if we can get Raji, that would be WAY better than drafting a DE....I heard Raji is dominating all the top OL prospects in 1 on 1 drills. Even if he doesn't get any sacks, he would require a double team, thus allowing 1 of our 6 blitzers to go un-touched....i'd get pissed when i'd see us blitz 6 and not see us get past the line of scrimmage.

I see your reasoning and it's good. My thoughts are this. They're going to move Jansen to guard, not because it's a good football move, but because of salary cap issues. That's also true with a lot of the O-line. Seeing how everyone is smitten with Raji and he'll probably be gone the next best guy is Jason Smith. That's assuming that the he's the best OT falling to us. RT has to be filled. I can see a younger free agent coming in to fill a hole if Kendall isn't signed. And this team likes to take it's sweet ass time with O-line men.

With Marcus Washington probably on his way out and if Clay Mathews is there, I'd think they'd be foolish not to get him.

If those centers are there in the third like you say then yes pick one. I'm not impressed with Unger though and Alex Mack will be gone by then.
