Yeah, Donovan Smith is in the same class as OBJ. I'm not paying him that. If he wants less, sure.

I'd prefer to just draft if that's the case.

The more I think about this, the more obvious it seems if the Texans are willing to part with him.

Tunsil is in his prime, and had a 91 PFF pass blocking grade last year, only allowing one sack in 1061 snaps.

I’d give Houston our 1 in a heartbeat and pay Tunsil once he gets in the building.

He’s a much better fit for our offense than OBJr ever was, and he’s simply a better player.

Get this deal done and we don’t have to worry about Pat’s blindside for the next several years.

Drafting is risky, but the payoff could be HUGE for keeping our line together for 5+ years.

LOL, yes you are I said they took the risk with knowledge of his personality profile, or they were absolutely unprepared that this could happen.

Please defend them, because you're acting like a closet Texans fan.

So did Wylie. Doesn't mean we bring back Brown Jr. for what he wants.

agreed,

But he might find his market not developing and come crawling back to Veach's original deal.

LMAO this reads like someone who lost but desperately wants to cling to some token W

Run along while the adults discuss.

Thanks for tapout son, because you're the one that mentioned Watson.

A late first round LT can work, even as a rookie. Duane Brown was the 26th pick of the draft of the 08 draft and was a starter from day 1.

If the Chiefs were to go that route, they'd have to bring in a veteran to protect against a bust. Bringing back Eric Fisher would seem to be the natural move, but I'd still want to know why he chose not to play most of last year.

Can you read and comprehend? If so you got a leg up on TW.

I agree. Tunsil is a genuinely elite player, brutally underrated due to being in Houston, with no red flags (like Ramsey with age). He isn't quite Trent Williams due to TW's super-elite run-blocking, but at the same time TW gets a lot of hype for being on a successful, winning team. It isn't Tunsil's fault he plays for a trainwreck offense and franchise. If he'd been in KC the past couple years, everyone and their dog would widely hype him up as the top 3 LT he is.

That's all why I still just don't see why Houston would do it. Especially drafting apparently a 5'10, 190lb QB in a few weeks. They're not cap stretched AFAIK. They're not JUST entering a rebuild, where it's time to sell off; they're in theory coming out of it in a year or so, with an exciting new HC, young QB and presumably adding more playmakers around him. In other words, the perfect situation for Tunsil to be there and play a huge part in all that.

It's an absolute slam-dunk no-brainer move if it's on the table. The position, the role in the offense, the money makes sense, and he's a genuinely elite player. He's not Orlando Brown. This would be such a W, but there's no way. I refuse to get my hopes up.

I have to disagree as pride will be a factor in this. For a man who forced his way out of Baltimore to play LT and then rejected KC's generous offer last year and this year, not sure he will swallow his pride enough to come crawling back.

I just don't see that as something that will ever happen, the set up of the league won't really allow it. Thuney is about aged out, you need a RT and a LT etc.

I'd shoot for more "2 years and we'll see"
