Sure KC has to believe that Taylor can make the switch, but their crystal ball isn't perfect.
This is the NFL. Nothing is guaranteed. It is just a calculated gamble.
I don't think re signing Brown was on the table. I don't think he was signing with KC for a reasonable contract because he thought he had leverage.
So that leaves a trade some other FA or draft.
But Taylor's pass blocking ceiling looks high and that is exciting.
