He’s the story term answer and if we draft someone, or an in house option improves so that they win the battle for the position, even better.
I think Simmons provides the kind of upside at the position that’s worth a first and if that means we spend a pick next year to move up a couple spots to get in front of a team like the Bills to get him, I’m ok with that…depending on how the board falls.
That upside is worth the risk.
If he returns to form, his attributes would open up a bunch of the offense they ran when Fisher was here and Pat trusted the line and he could go through progressions better and not have to rush throws.
Add in the aspect that our current WRs are far better than that group and a guy like Simmons (if, if, if…) solidified the LT spot with stud play…gonna be a lot of fireworks.

The odds he returns to form are awful, though.
We’ve spent the past two weeks discussing this and trying to find an NFL player who actually did fully return to form after this injury.
We have yet to name one. Because said player doesn’t exist.
The most likely outcome for Simmons is he is less than he was. And we’re not talking 55/45 here. More like 90/10.
