I am just being realistic bout Hakeem.  I want him to succeed, but some guys around here have been claiming he is "the answer" for our O-line problems.  Why would anyone say that about the 180th player (34th offensive lineman) taken in the draft?

I could see if he was some project that could be much better next year.  Say a gifted athlete that just dropped in the draft because he needs a year to add bulk, or some overweight guy who has dropped a lot of weight, or an injured player who needed to recover from an injury.  But Hakeem is none of those things.  He is just a guy that every team scouted by passed on for 5 rounds.

No one has said that. 

There are some guys that liked him through the draft process and wanted the team to give him a chance at guard when Fred Johnson and Billy Price were in there giving up sacks and pressure. 

I liked him through the process but I know he needs that first year to rebuild his body before he's NFL ready. I also said I wouldnt mind him getting a shot at LG after the bye week if XSF was back...That was a couple weeks ago.
