You can have the highest paid RT if your LT is on a rookie deal.
Yeah we have a rookie at LT but the rest of the line is amazing, leaving us with only one questionable spot, LT.
I think Taylor can make the switch if necessary but then we have two questionable spots, both Tackles. Not ideal, basically what we had last year but with more upside.
I dont like that we dont get a 1st round edge in this scenario but given it solves the O line for years, Id take it and be happy.

After signing Omenihu, the need at ER is much less than it was. We need another player at least but not necessarily an immediate starter. I don't know that the Chiefs will go that way in the 1st even if they don't trade up for an OT or WR.
As for trading up, what I've been seeing is that people are enamored with "don't trade multiple 1s" but then the reality is we're 1 pick removed from saying we're giving up multiple 2's. It's not like we're giving up two top-15 picks anymore. If Veach wants it, he should go up and get it.
There has been communication with Houston, so I'm guessing they also discussed the cost to move to #12...
I'd guess it's:
#1-31, #2-63, #3-95, #6-207, 2024-1
for
#1-12, #3-73
I'd do that for Broderick Jones.
With 73, you could move back up into the 60's for a 4th and high 6th probably. So, if there's a guy you feel like you're missing out on then go back up and get him. We have a lot of picks, and not a lot of holes.
If you can fix LT for 5 years and have RT locked down with Taylor for 4... Man, that's pretty good.
I won't pound the table for it to happen, but it's something that would make some sense to me. If not, I have other thoughts at 31.
