I've seen some matchups of Orlando Brown Jr with the Patriots if he hits free agency.
Got me thinking about the potential there for a tag and trade situation that sends OBJ and 1-31 to New England for 1-14.
They have the cap space to make a signing like him and they'd be giving up the equivalent of a high 2nd round pick in this situation. It also puts KC in a situation in the draft where they can get their guy at LT.
What do you think of this? Could it be a reality? [Reply]

I personally have thought the Cheats make sense. OBJ fits what they need: a LT that can do both, but is best run blocking and probably needs a QB that stays in the pocket.
I've always thought that a 2nd seems like a fair trade. Gives us ammo to move up and get whatever LT we want. Cheats/Steelers/Bears all make a ton of sense as does Indy-where I'm hoping and praying decides to hire EB. [Reply]
Guys....I think we need to move on from the LT talk. They'll at the very least tag OBJ.
Go to the draft and if a guy they like falls or something, take him. Worst case scenario you take a guy like Duncan in the first and play him at RT for a year.
But OBJ is here next year. I personally figure he ends up signing a long term deal here this offseason anyway, but the tag makes some sense. [Reply]

Solid point that has nothing to do with the emotion of winning this week, I'm sure.
Since you can see the future, how much does he sign for and are we keeping Jones as well? I ask because the combination of the 2 will be significant even if we dump JJSS. [Reply]

I've said they'd sign him to a LTD all season. This week really didn't change much for me.
They'll sign Jones too.
They'll save money by signing both to open space this year. [Reply]

I agree, that's probably ideal. If we can then swing for WR R3 I'd be happy. WRs look weak for standouts but some depth of players with potential imo. [Reply]
I may be way off base here but I think they go DL in the first and pick a developmental tackle or two starting in the 4th round. I'm thinking of players like Haggard of IN and Steen of AL. If they take a tackle in the first it will be a reach. [Reply]
