I still think we can move OBJ to Jacksonville/Pitt for a 2nd and then draft a younger, more pass-pro guy in the off-season. |

Unfortunately, Orlando has all the leverage here as there are no good solutions.
Hopefully he is in a generous mood after winning the Super bowl and gives a hometown discount. Unlikely but keeping him is our best option for the immediate future. It is possible he continues to improve and hell if we get to the Super Bowl with him, then he is good enough. |

And they're a LOT easier to swallow if you can retain a starting caliber LT for $5 million or so on a 1st round tender. If Bhakatiari can't go, what they're paying him is largely irrelevant. And Jenkins is a guy who I think they'd rather play at G in a perfect world.

Why would Jacksonville trade for an OT? They have 3 of them already

Of course that them makes them a possible for drafting a LT-which we might be looking at as well. |

Recent top guards are in that range.
Nelson is 20 per Thuney and Bitonio are 16.0 per Scherff is 16.5 per Jenkins having value as a reserve OT and high-end guard put him in that range to me. I really don't think GB is letting Nijman walk. For 6 million they keep a starting RT, keep Jenkins at OG, and have a quality backup plan if Bakhtiari is in the tub again. Of all the things they should do this season, that one is at the top of the list. The only other player they have worth bringing back is Allen Lazard, and my opinion is they'd improve by letting him walk and finding someone else. |

I'd also add Chicago to this list. They kinda have history with us since their GM was here just last year, they have over 100M available to spend and also have a rookie QB. They are in dire need of upgrades all over the offense. They actually might make the most sense if they can trade down from #1 and pick up some extra picks from someone else. They should be able to get a king's ransom from 1 of the QB needy teams. |

Lazard has basically said he's "outta here" after their game the other night. He may change his mind but that's what he implied.

Still think that we should move Thuney to left tackle. We can then aim for a guard and right tackle in the draft which is much eaisier and cheaper solution to the problem.
Thuney will be at least as good as OBJ at LT and it means we don't have top money going to 2 positons on the line. |

Pittsburgh for example, runs the ball way more than we do and as such, he'd be a great fit there. As to why they don't just draft an o lineman with their 1st? I'd think they'd consider doing both. Drafting a guard at 17 while trading for OBJ. |
