They'll probably be in a better position to retain him, but I would absolutely love to see them test this. To my mind he is the clear best option in the short-term. The worst outcome may be Cam Robinson.
At best he's a worse version of Taylor, but at LT. He'll still command an enormous fee and probably want more years than Stanley. We can't keep sinking good money into average for multiple years, even at a position as important as LT. He's also, like Taylor, a horrible run-blocker. Clearly we are never going to be a run-first team, but if we want any chance of convincing Reid to mix it up a little more, we probably need OTs that can produce.
I also don't think it's a particularly good year for OTs in the draft. In all honesty, I'd push my chips in on Stanley. If that doesn't work, I'd probably kick the tires on DJ and hope to hell he can provide something approaching OK. If Simmons or Conerly looks possible, fine, but don't bet the house on them.
It may just not be a problem we can't fix this off-season.
