ESPN insider names Texans LT Laremy Tunsil as Chiefs trade target

Didn’t see it posted.

ESPN insider names Texans LT Laremy Tunsil as Chiefs trade target

Could the Kansas City Chiefs go back to the trade market to find their left tackle of the future? One ESPN insider is watching a particular player closely if that’s the case.

ESPN’s Dan Graziano recently helped compile some last-minute free agency and trade buzz with the NFL’s legal tampering period kicking off at noon tomorrow. He mentioned that Houston Texans LT Laremy Tunsil could be a trade target for Kansas City if they’re unable to get a long-term deal done with Orlando Brown Jr. ahead of Monday.

Check it out:

Quote:
“One potential trade target I’m watching is Houston left tackle Laremy Tunsil. The Texans have resisted trading him in recent years, but he has just one year and a nonguaranteed $18.5 million left on his contract and could be a target of the Chiefs if they aren’t able to bring back Orlando Brown Jr.”
What would need to happen for a trade to materialize?

First, Houston would need to decide that they did not want to pay Tunsil a long-term contract extension. That would be a bold move considering they’re expected to draft a rookie quarterback and nothing is better for a rookie quarterback than an established left tackle.

Second, the two sides would have to agree on trade compensation. Would the Chiefs really be willing to potentially give up a first-round draft pick in 2023 (and potentially more) for Tunsil when they’re hosting the draft in Kansas City?

Next up, the Chiefs and Tunsil’s representation would need to first agree to a contract extension that would lower his 2023 salary cap hit. Right now, his cap hit would put the team over the cap.

Finally, Kansas City must view Tunsil as their “long-term solution” at left tackle. Will they envision him as such when he’ll be 29 years old in Week 1 of 2023? There is certainly nothing wrong with his ability — in three of the past four seasons, he’s been among PFF’s highest-graded pass-blocking offensive tackles. They should have no problem paying for that production, but would it be for more than one contract? It’s hard to say. When you draft a rookie in the first round, you get five years of control (fifth-year option), plus a likely sixth year of control through the franchise tag. Then you have the potential of re-signing that player to a long-term deal afterward.

There are certainly benefits to trading for Tunsil, but given what we’re hearing about what the Chiefs want out of the left tackle position this offseason, a trade might not be the route they take.

Dude....where are we getting the cap space for that? The only way that we could make that work is if they either plan on dumping Thuney next offseason or they plan to trade Chris Jones. You aren't paying your LT, LG and RT that much money and fielding a capable team.

I'd say Thuney is probably gone either way after this season right?

The issue is that it would have to be a Post June 1st cut or trade. And then you'd better have a damn good plan for his backup because he's been one of the best, if not the best, offensive lineman that we've had.

Yeah, true.

Kinda thought they might extend him this offseason to bring his cap number down TBH.

Why would they extend him? He's still under contract through 2025. Did you mean restructure him? I wouldn't touch his deal period. His cap hits are already big enough after this offseason and we need to be able to get out of his contract after 2024 if we need too.

Yes, restructure sorry.

I don't really see his play dropping off and I would imagine they'd prioritize him over Trey Smith if it came down to it.

Of course...but you also can't just keep doing that every year. And right now, you have to factor in a Jones extension and how it affects the cap next year while moving forward.

It's going to be tough to field a team when you have the top contracts in the league for QB, LT, LG, RT and DT.

You have a two year window right now. Where you have a hard running cheap rb, the best TE in the world, the best QB in the world, and you could have the best OL in the world.

****ing go for it. Stay cheap at WR and CB

Draft like your ass depends on it.
