Got this off a poster in another topic, I saw this on twitter myself, if this doesn't worry you now I don't know what will, that's pretty much all the elite tackles gone and the prices aren't even as high as I'd imagined they would be, so unless there's a whole bunch of guys I have missed out on seeing in the OT FA lists, were gona go for a rookie from the draft to play at LT or use a guy on our roster?

Slightly worrying? no way the top three tackles drop to #28 in my opinion, the next three rated highly are Moses, Koumandijo, Richardson but are they really starters? There good prospects but with injury issues and two of those graded second rounders I just don't know if I'm comfortable with us not taking one of these top free agent tackles to replace Jordan and protect Cams blindside, I mean LT is the second biggest role on the roster?

THE Mr. Aaron Wilson recently put up an article about Eugene Monroe's contract negotiations with the Ravens, but also adds more information from his sources for the rest of the OL market.

Quote

Kansas City Chiefs offensive tackle Branden Albert is expected to sign with the Miami Dolphins for an average of $9.5 million annually.

St. Louis Rams offensive tackle Rodger Saffold is expected to sign with the Oakland Raiders for roughly $8 million per year, but he is still in talks with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Oakland Raiders offensive tackle Jared Veldheer is expected to sign with the Arizona Cardinals for between $7 million and $7.5 million.

Cincinnati Bengals offensive tackle Anthony Collins is expected to sign with the Buccaneers for between $6.5 million to $7 million provided that he doesn't re-sign with the Bengals.

Someone will likely say it in the thread at some point, so I'll throw it outhere, so should we of not tagged hardy and kept the money for a top FA LT? Or tagged hardy and play byron bell or some other average douchebag at LT?

Sarcasm sorry.not.sorry....

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      Not just Dalton.   But the only real young arm they would let be seen the past 2 years was a really a bad Jack Plummer.  Who was super weak even for that tier  Can’t convince me how weak they made the atmosphere around Young hasn’t been intentional.

      Things of note: mentions he has six drops. Six. For all the people that don’t know what a drop is, he has six. That’s a long distance from the league leader at ten. (To be fair, pro football reference has him at seven, still not bad.  Plenty of others is that same range.  His drop % is 6.3, which is low.) Catchable ball success ratio: 83% which is great. Catchable being the key word.  Mentions his contested catch rate is low at 5/18 but that’ll get better I think when he can rely on muscle memory for routes, catches, etc and the game slows down for him

      I'd honestly take The Golden Calf of Bristol over Young. You know you can design an O around his skillset to win you games. Plus, as a bonus, said O would wear him down within 3 years so you could move on from him.
