2. I gave you that reason. They are better at this stage.
3. You're right. He does have to figure things out. Most rookies do. That's not a shock. Glenn Dorsey evidently needs to figure things out right now as well. I can name a lot of DL who have been taken in the last few years who havent figured it out, but are getting better. No one debates this.
4. We don't know if he "barely made the team". The only thing here is that he was a 5th round pick.
5. 32 teams passed on Steve Slaton as well. They did it twice. 28 teams passed on Joe Montanna. This has nothing to do with anything. Okam may fail or he may not. We don't know. I do know that there is a MUCH greater chance that Frank Okam will be on the Houston Texans 5 years from now than Jeff Zgoniga. If we were still playing for the playoffs, fine. Once we are mathematically eliminated, we should be playing for the future. That is all I said.

thanks for all of that. Now go back and re-read my post. I asked you for reasons why Okam SHOULD play. The closest you came was he is young and we have a losing record.
Please anyone tell us why Okam SHOULD play. Anyone...
