If he's got long arms and is athletic.....yeah, lets do that.

Am I the only one that thinks Kingsley Suamataia should be in the conversation in round 1?

I think I'd be fine with him at the end of 1. He's not as polished as his cousin and he hasn't developed enough of an anchor yet, but I think the tools are just as much there you just have to coach him up alot more.

If we're going off reactions from 1 game last nights spoke loudly

I wonder if we take a right tackle in the mid rounds this year to give us the option to move on from Taylor after next season. We can save 15 million in cap space if we cut him in 2025.

Some people just make up their minds and that's the end of it...

I have no idea what you think I have my mind made up on.

Seems to me that it's proactive roster management to consistently use mid round picks at the most expensive positions on the field to see if we can't develop guys into future cap savings. We'd save $20 million by moving on from him a season earlier than his contract ends.

We'd save $15 million and be rolling with Waynya Morris and a 2nd year OT. When we've seen very little to indicate that even Morris is a starting OT.

You don't cut quality young players who are entering the primes of their career unless they're negative assets on your balance sheet. Taylor won't be.

Without a doubt the dude looked worth the money last night. And has been good in the playoffs.

Does anyone have a list of the 5-10 LT prospects? Most of the lists I’ve looked at have RTs in there and we probably don’t need a RT early. I’d like to see a list of LTs if anyone has a list of just the top LTs.

Do you want it as purely college LTs and college RTs or LT to include potential moves from RT to LT?

"Solving the LT problem" is....well we all know what that's probably gonna take.

It's either a shot in the dark mid tier draft guy you develop, you pay top dollar for one, or you trade up and take one.
