I low-key followed Arizona for a long time, and I always like OEL. Even when he got to VAN and everyone suddenly hated him, I felt like he was getting the short end of the stick. I wanted him last year after his buy out, and I'm thrilled he's here now.

This guy will have no problem living up to his contract, and could fill in higher on the depth chart when pressed without the slightest hesitation.
