So you're either going to pay a RT 20M or move a guy to LT that's never played there and pay him...20M, when he was projected at about 17.

Our GM didn't build this team with a bunch of top 5 picks. We actually know what we're doing,

Just a reminder that Orlando Brown Jr was rumored to want $25 million APY last year.

No ****ing way man

KC just won the SB
with a LT that had never played a full season there before we got him so.......

Now go back and read the bolded part again a few times.

Yeah, as much as I wanted him back when he forced our hand it was over for Veach.

Jawaan Taylor just needs to come in and become a great LT.

We'll just cut the leg off entirely and give him the Six Million Dollar Man leg attachment.

His entire leg will be covered in tape

If there's any position group I'm giving Reid and Veach the benefit of the doubt on, it's OL.

He's really young for his experience though. That's a huge plus.

BleedingRed 03-13-2023 01:05 PM

He's 25 years old too........

YOUNG TALENT

Wow, the athleticism difference between him and OBJ is insane

$20 million a year for a LT is a steal if this works out. Looks like this will truly be a new position for him, though. He played 17 snaps at LT in the pros and only 2 games in college.

Might have a few issues early on, but if they believe he can do it then so be it, I'm on board. This is actually perfect, I didn't want OBJ back, and as much as I love Tunsil I did not see them giving up those picks and that money.

On to the next one!

I like that we went for an ascending player instead of the premium priced established elite one, or the safe/overpaid choice.

We need to think in dynasty paradigms now and this move fits it. You stay at the top by making moves like this and hitting on them, not by busting your cap on free agent signings.

I'm sure Tunsil would have been great, but this has more upside.

BleedingRed 03-13-2023 01:07 PM

This is what scouting does for you, clearly Chiefs think he can play LT. And knew they could lock him down for 4+ years at a steal for LT.

Now its time for coaching to come in and make sure this kid transitions.... Considering we just did it with OBJ, I'm imagining we have the coaches to make it work.

Sassy Squatch 03-13-2023 01:07 PM

Why does PFF lists him as such an abhorrent run blocker, though? I usually wouldn't put much stock in those grades but it's just abysmally low.

Shit, they've got the benefit on the doubt on every group and player going forward until we hit rock bottom again. Want to sign Townsend to a 100 million dollar deal? Great, in Vichey I trust.
