Ravens best draft choice

Gabe Carimi aka "The Jewish Hammer"  played Left Tackle for the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He won the 2010 'Outland Trophy', an award given to the nation's best collegiate interior lineman.  He is our suggestion for the Raven's first pick in this year's NFL draft. With the 26th pick, it is unlikely that Carimi will be available, but if he is, lets hope Ozzie Newsome (Ravens general manager) makes this pragmatic choice. The Ravens need help on the O line and the 6'7''- 315 lb.- never- injured Carimi seems like a great fit. When asked if he would play football on Yom Kippur, Carimi responded that he had already checked and that Yom Kippur doesn't fall on a Sunday for the next 15 years. That's the kind of 'thinking ahead' the Ravens could use. ESPN draft expert Mel Kiper predicts the Eagles taking Carimi with the 23rd pick, and Mel is money. The quandary that faces all late first-round selections for the GM is: is this player good enough to attain by trading to move to a higher draft position, and if he is available at 26, with all the surrounding hype, what do other people know? If the Ravens are successful in getting him, Baroch Haba  Mr. Carimi! (thanks various Ravens blogs, Ravens site, wikipedia)
