However, his real value is in going away andleaving us with $12.6 mil in cap room. We can sign two pretty good players for that. One REALLY good one.
Yeah, a trade benefits us no matter what honestly.
It is okay, a 4th rounder is just fine, I don't care. It frees up money and Jonah can go be a LT somewhere else.

I think Jonah is over hated here and isn't as bad as a lot of people think, but my main issue with him is when he got beat, a lot of times it was from the inside, or he got ran over by a bullrush. Burrow cannot step up into the pocket with pressure like that. Brown meanwhile is too big and strong to be beat inside or to get bull rushed. So, the only way you beat him is around the edge, but QBs with good pocket presence (Like Burrow) can step up to avoid that.
I think also playing for the Chiefs actually hurt Brown a bit because their system, and how deep Mahomes drops back makes their OTs job harder. Burrow doesn't drop back as deep which helps our tackles a bit. I think that is the reason Carmen seemed to look good at OT last season. He is big and strong so DEs had to go around him which Burrow was able to step up away from.
In short, I think Brown will fit our offense better than he did the Chiefs, he will also help our run game which is nice. But Jonah isn't as trash as people think, he could get more interest than you think.
Nice post Garrus. Brown does seem to fit with what you say here much better than Jonah. Carman could end up being good at RT.
I know he sucked at Guard but that may just be because he likes it better on the edge and doesn't like being in the interior.
Sure hope so, if we have the Tackles for the future along with the interior solid we will be tough to beat with Burrow. Orlando will
have to get used to some of the Burrow magic though, but hey, like you said he had a bit of that with Mahomes too, so he may be
prepared as much as any LT to play with Burrow.
