Do we dare entertain this

I hate saying this but I would entertain taking/making calls for Tyron to try to get back in the first round.
Go with cam Fleming who is 26 years old and draft.
Love Tyron and what he's meant to the team for the past decade but he's breaking down. May as well do it a year early than a year late ‍♂️

Am I smoking too much David Irving or am I on to something ??
 
We'll eat a 10.8 mil cap hit, saving 4.7mil to trade him off.

He allowed zero sacks this past year. Fleming to me struggled at LT.

I pass, easily. Especially since I can't see a team trading a first for him.

Keep him, develop a LT behind him and then in 1-2 years hope you have a good enough player behind him that could play LT at a good enough level before moving on.
 
Smith's contract is structured such that he has another year or 2 before he can be let go. All we can do is hope he can get healthy again and have a good backup if he can't. When he can play, he is still good, but not the dominant beast he once was.

Cam Fleming is not the answer as a starter.
 
Best left tackle in the league not worth a 1? Bills got a 1 from Cincy for Cordy Glenn...
Tyron also missed 3 games
 
Because of a few offsides penalties, I think some here have undervalued what Tyron did this year.
He was very good.

But, it'd d be hard to get a 1st due to his injury history and contract anyway
 
Trade a top 5 tackle for a first round. What exactly are you taking in the first round? Why would you create a hole on an already suspet position unit?

We had a 2019 first round draft pick and elected to take a WR with it. It was a find decision and will roll later. That decision already means borrowing against our future cap, trading Tyron would just make that worse.

Nope.
 
I think Tyron's demise is over exaggerated. Did he have a few bad moments this season? Sure, but so has every other left tackle in the league. Smith at 80% is still better than most left tackles in the league.

They swapped firsts in that deal.

The Buffalo Bills have agreed to trade left tackle Cordy Glenn to the Bengals, a source informed of the situation told NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport. Good Morning Football's Peter Schrager reported Buffalo and Cincinnati are swapping first-round picks, moving the Bills up to No. 12 and the Bengalsback to No. 21. They're also swapping fifth- and sixth-round picks, with Buffalo moving to No. 158 and Cincinnati dropping back to No. 187, per Rapoport.

I say we instead trade Dak, our second round pick, Irving and a carton of Marlboro to the Giants for their 1st round pick.

Understandable for sure ...I'm not necessarily upset w the amari move ...I'm fine with it ...nor am I obsessed with trying to replenish the first per say...just spitballing on trying to get ahead of the curve on a aging player with a back issue who is still is a top rated player at a position of need across the league which holds trade value ...that's all no more no less
