Might be for the best - use the money saved to re-sign our guys. Use the #12 on the best OT available.

Yup. Count on JG getting hurt, OL will be abysmal. Atleast we allowed Williams to showcase himself.

It would be nice to actually gain something with the number 12 pick rather than replacing an All Pro

What did you expect?

I expected him to demand numbers comparable or bigger than what the Packers gave Bakhtiari(4 year, $92,000,000 contract with the Green Bay Packers, including a $30,000,000 signing bonus, $61,500,000 guaranteed).

I think this on target. Problem is, you're probably not going to see that in a COVID year. KC is pushing hard but they are still subject to the cap and have pushed a TON of cap cost down to next season and beyond.

While there are still some big contracts being signed, you're also not seeing near the kind of activity as normal. It's all happening st the top end of the teams with space and you're seeing talented guys get jettisoned.

In a normal year, Shaq Barrett would've reset the edge market. Not this year.

In a normal year, Joe Thuney would've reset the guard market, he didn't.

I'm counting on him to get hurt, but the OL has nothing to do with it.

Or use that money to find 3 quality o linemen.

Let's face it. Even with Williams, this line is absolute trash. But I'd they can use that money on 3 linemen, then that's a huge start.

Getting hurt and staying hurt is the problem .

this dude would just trip over himself and get hurt. Building an OL is important for the rookie, not for Jimmy

WIlliams+Mack+Slater = not trash

Packers just gave that contract to Bakhtiari a few months ago, so Trent probably sees no excuse for him not to receive something similar.

What are you talking about? Was he supposed to come back in record time from an ACL? Do you actually know what the mechanics of a high ankle sprain are?
We sign him yet?
