You look at a guy like Donovan Smith in comparison to Orlando Brown Jr.
Smith’s rates in 2022 were more of the norm for the past four seasons. He only yielded one sack and a 3.8 percent pressure rate in 2021. But he allowed seven sacks and a 5.9 percent pressure rate in 2020, the season Tampa Bay won the Super Bowl with Tom Brady.
5% pressure rate which was much better than Orlando Brown’s almost 7%.
And yeah I get that Brady gets the ball out fast, but Orlando had Mahomes and his elite pocket presence+movement and chips/scheme helping him out.
Not advocating for Smith but I’d think it would be better to have him at $15 million than Orlando at $23+ million
