That would then leave one area of focus for Free Agency: pass rush, and the market is incredibly deep there this year.

But a a huge cost difference compared to a drafted LT.

Still think Nelson or Smith get moved to LT and the need for Oline isn’t as dire as we suspect

For a team with among the most cap space in the league. Plus the cap is projected to bounceback to where it would've been next year.

I wonder if smith has quick enough feet to play left tackle. Most left tackles are very nifty and light on their feet.

He had a higher athletic grade than Nelson, who they are also considering.

He didnt give up a sack last year and opposing D’s have tough DEs off the right side. Go find a RT in the second round or FA

Personal preference is a pass rusher. Although I won’t be mad at LT. Anything else is dumb

That is assuming we don’t trade for a qb

I wouldnt make any rash predictions about post covid attendance or cap space.
