As for being a better LT, the only way that's true is if Taylor bombs. Why anyone would think that is beyond me. Absolutely beyond me. If you're eating up with PFF is feeding you, STOP. PLEASE.
A "chance." He's literally already better. Orlando Brown is a bad pass protector. Period. Full stop. End of story. He always has been. Are we smoking crack here?
No he wouldn't or he'd have OFFERED it.
Veach didn't want ANOTHER YEAR OF OBJ GETTING MAHOMES KILLED.
Are you people ****ing BLIND? We just watched this guy for 2 years. We don't need "ESPN pass block win rate" to trick us into thinking he's good, for **** sake.
By protecting their QB, who's way less talented at escaping pressure (he actually creates a lot of it himself), with a guy who IS TERRIBLE AT GIVING UP PRESSURE?

And if we're honest, it was actually apparent from the get-go. In the 2021 preseason, the rebuilt offensive line looked pretty good, except for Orlando Brown in pass protection, and it never really got better.
I think it's a real question as to how much we wanted him back. Last year, our offer was really just a glorified two-year contract, and going into this off-season, Veach had probably already made up his mind he wasn't going to go anywhere near where Brown wanted and was ready to move on.
