Default What about Michael Oher?

My favorite notion for the upcoming draft has been to trade down a few spots and still pick up a big offensive tackle. Given that as the notion, I was looking at Michael Oher in comparison to Long from Michigan, but I haven't seen enough of him to know if he's a guy Belioli would look to. Any thoughts on Mr. Oher and trading down to gain picks and draft him would be appreciated.

I read a book by Michael Lewis called 'The Blind Side', it talks a lot about Oher. In summary, amazing specimen but raw not sure he is worth a top 5 pick at this point, I also read he is staying in school for his senior year...
