If you want a truly great LT, you have to develop him.
If you want a guy whos adequate and overpaid, you sign your FA veteran.
"We just have to fix the LT" is really the same as "We just need a franchise QB" -- it's so much easier said than done.
What people are advocating at the LT position appears to be the Derek Carr approach to fixing the QB position. You go out there and pay way too much for someone you know isn't actually GOOD...but at least he isn't awful. And then you hope that things work out well elsewhere on the roster.
And that's not even an indefensible approach -- but don't act like it's an obviously right one either.

I'm going to say something extremely unpopular right now. Kingsley is the type of LT we need. If he doesn't develop, someone like him has to. That's the only way we are going to get a top-flight LT.
