Brown is better than Reiff or Collins. What did they get?

**wanga** · 03-18-2024, 09:44 PM

Yep happy enough with this. Some ‘issues’ for sure but is it better than not having him? Probably not.
OT at 18.

**Joelist** · 03-18-2024, 09:47 PM

So IF we sign Brown and take OT at 18 that sets up the line a lot better including in quality of depth

I like my offensive linemen mentally unstable. The best offensive linemen are pissed off 100% of the time.

At OT, yes. Still nothing inside.

I'd expect Carman and/or Smith to get cut eventually if this happens. Though I guess if they think either could play guard, or if this is the year the light goes on. We could save around $2 mil by cutting both. But I'd think they make it to camp at least.

Probably less than SF offered Trent Williams in 2020. He was an oft injured, disgruntled old Tackle.

Unsure of either Trent's mental stability. But it seemed neither was in a good state.

I’m gonna call shenanigans on that. Munoz and Big Whit were two of the nicest guys.

John Herderson might disagree

We’re going to have an absolutely massive pair of bookends if it ends up being Brown/Brown.

**jj22** · 03-18-2024, 10:18 PM

If they can get 10 games out of him while the rookie gets up to speed it’ll work. Incentive based on games played etc. he’s a better option then M.B who may have untapped potential but can’t risk him sharpening it at the expense of Burrow.

Yea? Who playing corner oppo cam Taylor Britt? lol
And don’t insult me and say either Hill or Turner.

**Bengalbug** · 03-18-2024, 10:21 PM

For those they still want Ot at 18 if we sign brown. I’m assuming you are ok with our first round pick not playing in 2024. You can’t predict injuries, so maybe they would get on the field. But if things go our way, getting zero contribution from Your first overall pick would be a likely outcome.

Aren’t we tired of not drafting for the current year? Signing brown opens up the draft a bit.

Give him a similar deal to Tyron smith. Tyron got $6m gtd with up to 20 based on playing time and incentives. Maybe $5m gtd and another 3-5 with playing time/incentives.

Or you could do like we did Whit. Let him play LG until a spot opens at OT. Kid outta Washington fits the bill

I like getting Brown with tons of incentives and low risk. Don’t know how it’s structured. But it at least opens up some flexibility at 18. None currently

**ezekiel23** · 03-18-2024, 10:34 PM

I’d be OK with this signing,but I would sure be looking very closely for a future RT in the draft.

lol, it’s a sad day when you have invested, somewhat big, in 4 OL in 3 years via FA and you still want to use you’re first round pick on that.

Honestly, I think we forget how bad the run defense was. If anything… a rookie WR could impact this year, and protect us into the future.

DT or offensive playmaker
