They could go LT at any of their first picks in the next couple years, not be forced to play the kid if they need the time.

This is exactly what drew me to like the idea. You get a guy who can hold down the fort and will likely not be any worse than Cam Robinson or Dan Moore Jr, who have been, let's face it folks, relatively subpar at best and cost far more for lengthier terms.
Most of the OTs in this class are going to need some seasoning before they can play meaningful snaps. That doesn't mean you don't take one even in round 1, but it takes some pressure off and lets you develop a guy a little bit before casting him into the fire.
Even with this signing, I remain on the draft Conerly hype train in round 1. If Jaylon Moore works out at LT, you can always move Conerly to RT to take over for Taylor, it's just going to take a bit of time for him to acclimate. Conerly is going to need some development in the strength and anchor department anyhow but he's got all the other tools you want. If you can't get him, you can look at another project or wait until 2026 to get a prospect.
