Ehhhh... I have the same problem with him as I did with Reiff. (I said it plenty when the signing happened, so it wasn't hindsight.) Reiff hasn't played a full NFL season since 2015. Tunsil has *NEVER* played a full NFL season since he entered the league in 2016, including missing multiple games each of the last 3 years.
Tunsil has the added downside of not only costing draft picks to acquire, but also having to be paid $17.85m in '22 and $18.5m in '23 in base salary.

Alternatively, Orlando Brown Jr is scheduled to be a FA (though admittedly not likely to leave KC).
Eric Fisher and Morgan Moses will be a FA. Duane Brown could be a great stopgap signing.
All three of which will each cost much less money and no draft picks, so you can use the saved pick(s) on drafting more offensive linemen and the saved money towards signing say... James Daniels, Alex Cappa, or Connor Williams at Guard... or Bradley Bozeman, Brian Allen, or much lower on the list Evan Brown. Jason Kelce could also be a great stopgap signing.
There's a lot of young IOL talent in this FA, would hate to use over $18m/yr and draft pick(s) on 1 guy who isn't very reliable health-wise.
