The problem is that we already gave Smith's money to Taylor. And we're paying Thuney tackle money. Just not sure how we justify paying 80 million to the line that just got abused in the Super Bowl.
Guards are pretty low impact overall. Like can anyone name the right guards from the Patriots dynasties? I can't.
Maybe you pay Smith if you have the tackles figured out and don't already have 60 million in linemen. Like if Suamataia had left tackle locked down and Morris had right tackle locked down and both on rookie contracts then you feel good about spending some money on the line. But we already are paying 60 million and have no left tackle and an average at best right tackle. It's just a bad allocation of resources.
