No, it really doesn’t. A team is not going to pay a RT money like a LT because they currently have a left handed QB. There are so few left handed QBs, and so few work out, they simply look at the QB as the outlier in the situation. Now would an agent make this pitch? Sure, but teams aren’t signing a RT to LT money because of that it throws off too much of the general cap dynamics. The contract is instantly unmoveable if he doesn’t work out and inflated if the QB doesn’t.
Again, he may be more valuable in Miami for other reasons but it’s not because of “blind side”.
