There’s also the fact that we have Jonah for one more season since they picked up his 5th year option. They’re not cutting him and eating $12.6 million. Have you even looked at the free agent LT’s hitting the market in 2024? I personally haven’t, but if there’s another Terron Armstead caliber pickup available that could be a better option than developing one anyway.

Now, if they feel like they won’t be able to afford any big splash players like that since they have to pay Burrow and Chase, and they’re definitely ready to move on from Jonah, then I could see next year’s draft being a bit of a have to focus on need type situation.

But Jonah Williams is this team’s LT for 2023. That much is clear for now.

While I agree with your sentiment about not forcing a LT just because you want to. But if a prospect comes in and can improve the team, I don't think this staff would make the change.
