You guys have to understand that other than an elite QB, a plus Left Tackle is the hardest thing to find in the NFL.
Any team that has one, isn't going to get rid of him. It's a cornerstone position that's incredibly hard to win without. You don't ditch them. If your team is otherwise any good, you especially won't, because you won't be drafting high enough to get one.
The only guys that come free are 1)old 2) expensive and the team is cap strapped or 3) not good enough for the team to pay in their eyes.
We got OBJ because the Ravens had Stanley and didn't want to pay TWO Left tackles. The Bengals got him because he thought he was worth more money than we offered and signed for less with Cinci cuz pride.
So.
It's over the hill broke dicks and hope Kingsley develops, or it's over pay for a Jackson, a Robinson, or a Stanley.
All have their issues and risks.
