Titans blog Music City Miracles:

"The Titans seem to be in full on evaluation mode now, and according to PFF, [right tackle] Michael Oher has earned the Titans worst offensive grade (-20.2) and the fifth worst grade from an offensive tackle this year. It should be safe to say that his job should be in question this offseason. With Ruston Webster, Tommie Smith and Ken Whisenhunt promising turnover this offseason, it is hard to imagine a situation where the Titans bring back the tackle"

Awesome. I think he's gonna surprise a lot of people.

ESPN:

"ESPN.com Insider Mike Sando rates the Oher signing as the fifth- worst offseason pickup...The Titans signed Oher..in free agency, a move that immediately drew criticism. ... Amid the criticism, the contract details emerged and told us they can get out of the deal after 2014 for just the $6 million he will have made in his first year."

Oher had no guaranteed money after his first season, so the Titans only spent a total of $6M on him for one year

i think he beats out David Foucault and takes his spot on the 53-man roster. Or least i hope he's better than Foucault. Foucault is younger tho, so Foucault may have more upside

I just watched the 1st game of last season. Titans vs Chiefs. Oher's run blocking is terrible. I was laughing at his run blocking  a lot. His pass blocking is very good though. He handled Justin Houston like a pro. He gave up 1 sack to Justin Houston but it wasn't his fault. Locker should of gotten rid of the ball but he held on to it and Houston got a sack. After watching that game, I was really impressed with Oher's pass blocking.

here's a video of a Houston sack on Oher. Oher could barely get a hand on him:

Unless we stumble into something better, I see Oher starting at tackle. I have a feeling foucault is gone regardless... I saw nothing last season that would lead me to believe that he is an nfl-caliber player. You can't coach size, but some guys can't develop the required skill either...

I'm OK with this signing. There simply are not many OT's out there.

in 2012:

Byron Bell allowed 6 sacks as a 23-yr-old RT (15 starts)

Michael Oher allowed 11 sacks as a 26-yr-old LT (16 starts)

Greg Hardy got 11 sacks as a 24-yr-old DE (15 games)
