That said--he needs some competition and needs to earn his spot. If we pay Brown we're not paying him to compete with Kolton Miller. We're paying him to start at RT for us. Miller shouldn't have been a starting LT last season but was forced into the fire. Hopefully, some of that upside shines through but signing a guy like Brown solidifies the right side of our line while giving us a great insurance policy at LT.

bucksavage1 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Looks like we are going after a veteran tackle. I wouldn't be surprised Kolton Miller is moved to right tackle or even left guard. Could be given the Robert Gallery treatment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown would start, bar none. His payday would be too big to bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't go into the season with Parker in that role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayock and Gruden have a plan and they know that they have to protect Carr better and get him some weapons. Trent Brown and Antonio Brown would be an amazing start to revamping our offense.

agarcia34 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Brown will be the LT with that type of money. Congrats to Gruden for realizing he F up that year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller needs to develop and should be given more time to do so. He showed some decent skill early last season and I hope he can grow off of that. Wish we had a decent OL coach to help that development. I think you speak for all of us about being upset with the pick. I straight up don't remember anyone hoping for him leading up to the draft. I remember the pic of him upside down midair lol, and the collective groans about us being linked to him. I can't remember another year that this forum consensus didn't want the player, then sure enough the pick happened. I think DHB might have even had a fan or two all those years back.

I agree that Parker cant start at RT. Brown is getting Left tackle money from us at 4 years, 66 million. He's the starting blindside. Miller goes to right tackle or guard.

Parker can continue to develop and backup both spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
