I'd be interested to see what Tunsil wants since he's said that he wants to "reset the LT market".

He's now 4 years older, has a larger cap hit and is going to need a new high end deal. Not sure he's worth anywhere close to what he was back in 2019.
That trade was also a full reerun BOB special.

in that event you're pretty much left with only one option and you gotta rip the bandaid off
There are LT options but they’re out of reach.

It's interesting even though I find it hard to believe, but there's definitely some smoke.

He takes the Brown deal, I think.

Between the Chris jones restructure and not at least tagging obj (they’d rather have money available instead) seems to indicate we’re trying to immediately free up space to make some moves. This would certainly make sense.

Absolutely perfect fit but would be interested in what the logistics of getting him would be and what he would get paid. Any experts out there know the contract situation for him if he were to get traded to KC

Everything the Chiefs have done screams that a big move is coming IMO.

Trade for Tunsil using next years 1st, let Niang and a mid round pick this year fight it out for the RT spot, and position ourselves to draft John Alt’s son in 2 years where you can play him at RT until Tunsil’s extended contract runs out.

I go back and forth on compensation. Would the Texans take a 2nd this year and a 2nd next year? They can get their QB at #2 and still get a top LT at #12. Plus they'd have two 2nd round picks to add more talent.

Upgrading Brown for the same contract would be nice, but I wonder why Tunsil would accept that deal when there’ll be a big market for him - guys like that just don’t become available very often. He’ll say he’s better than Trent Williams and younger and that deal is 2 years old, I should get a lot more.

The contract and trade cost seem likely to be high, and it also involves a bet that a guy who will turn 30 before the season can still turn in 3-4 years of elite production and stay healthy, which he hasn’t always.

I’m not against it, just concerned about the costs.

He’s not a free agent. The decision is the Texans’ to make.

Yes, but one would assume they might listen to offers other than ours and so might he.

I'll take Tunsil over Brown for sure and pay him close to what Brown wanted. He actually is a premium pass protector, not merely solid.

Chiefs would want to know if Tunsil would extend on team-friendly deal before giving more assets here.
