Glad this poll is public. Anyone not voting for Thomas is just hating for hating's sake and deserves the public ridicule.

I'm curious, what do you see in him that makes you think this way? I'm biting my tongue, because I want to lash out to protect the one thing the Browns have that is better than everyone else, but I won't.

Maybe homer too?
In any case, Thomas is a monster, while Oher will almost certainly become one, barring injuries.

I loved joe thomas in the draft, and i think hes every bit as great as advertised.
That being said oher was far and away my #1 LT last year, biggest victim of over analysis ive ever seen. If the rams took him #2 over jason smith i would have called them brilliant. I believe in 2 years oher will be regarded as a master of the position, joe thomas is elite and thats why he got my vote but i think oher easily could achieve that status

Joe Thomas should win this easily. I would like to know who voted for Andrew Whitworth and reasoning behind it. Whitworth struggles in Passing Gameing and was the Most Penalized LT last year.

J.Thomas easy. Whitworth made my head want to explode last year. Oher will be a beast but ain't on Thomas' level yet.

Whitworth isn't that bad lol. If you cut out the penalties he's a great LT for us. I voted for Joe Thomas though and I think Oher is slightly overrated right now.
Don't get me wrong, I think Oher is a great young LT but his analysis is becoming cyclical in a way that people are saying he was undervalued in the draft so now they're hyping him up to much.

Joe Thomas is by far the best. Oher is good, and can be great, but Lamarr Woodley owned his jock last year. It wasnt even a battle.

I think you're confusing Oher with Cousins.

The game Woodley went nuts against us was when Cousins was the RT. He did have a sack in the first game though, although I wouldn't call what Woodley did that game "owning his jock."

No it was definately when Oher was playing RT, he got beat all night. Maybe only one sack, but the pressure was there all night.
