That should tell you alot about Joe Thomas. WC has probably seen more of Joe Thomas playing than anyone on this board. I have seen enough of Thomas to think he is a disaster pick at #5 and I have seen about half the games WisconsinCard has likely seen.
Drafting Joe Thomas will set the Cards OL back for 5 years.

Selecting the best lineman in the draft, will set the worst line in football back 5 years?
You should be at the Improv. Really.
He's the next phenom who has to retire because of arthritical knees?
I meant ANOTHER 5 years.
Selecting Joe Thomas and paying HIM #5 money will set the Cards OL back ANOTHER 5 years. Clear enough now?

Spinal Tap reunite 'to save world from global warming'
Spinal Tap is back, and this time the US mockumentary band wants to help save the world from global warming.
The mock heavy metal group immortalised in the 1984 mockumentary, This is Spinal Tap, will reunite for a performance at Wembley Stadium in London as part of the Live Earth concerts scheduled worldwide for July 7.
The original members of Spinal Tap will be there: guitarist Nigel Tufnel (played by Christopher Guest), singer David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean) and bassist Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer). Rob Reiner, who both directed This is Spinal Tap and played the fake documentarian Marty DeBergi in the film, will also be in attendance.
A new 15-minute film directed by Reiner on the band's reunion will also play at the opening night of the Tribeca Film Festival in New York today.
The festival, hosted by Al Gore, is to open with a showing of several global warming-themed short films produced by the SOS (Save Our Selves) campaign.
SOS is also putting on the Live Earth concerts, to be held across seven continents.
Reiner explained the reunion of Spinal Tap - a band always known more as a parody of rock 'n roll excess than environmental awareness.
"They're not that environmentally conscious, but they've heard of global warming," said Reiner, whose other films include When Harry Met Sally and Stand By Me. "Nigel thought it was just because he was wearing too much clothing - that if he just took his jacket off it would be cooler."
Spinal Tap has reunited several times since the film, but hasn't for a number of years. For the band - whose last album was 1992's Break like the Wind - the occasion warranted a new single: Warmer Than Hell.
Reiner provided a sneak peak at the lyrics: "The devil went to Devon, it felt like the fourth degree. He said, 'Is it hot in here, or is it only me?"'
The director said the new short film explained what the band had been doing with their lives lately. Nigel has been raising miniature horses to race, but can't find jockeys small enough to ride them; David is now a hip-hop producer who also runs a colonic clinic; and Derek is in rehab for addiction to the internet.
Reiner, 60, has for more than 20 years worked with the National Resources Defence Council, an environmental action organisation. Though the Spinal Tap reunion will be a lot of laughs, he hopes the SOS short films programme and the Live Earth concerts have a substantial effect.
"What I think is going to be nice about this whole effort is there will be marching orders for people," said Reiner. "Not only from a personal standpoint of what individuals can do in their lives, but a macro perspective with respect to the public sector and government."
