I heard an interesting idea on Locked on Dolphins. Why not trade for Orlando Brown the Ravens OT. He’s in his rookie deal and can play both LT and RT. I would use the Texans 2nd round pick on him. It’s better to know what your getting them taking a chance on a rookie.

Should the Dolphins explore trading for Ravens OT Orlando Brown Jr.?

The Miami Dolphins have a continuing need along their offensive line despite the investments made at to the group in 2020. And it just so happens that the Baltimore Ravens now have a very good young tackle available on the trade market — the news broke…

The only concern I have is he wants to be traded to play left tackle exclusively and the reason is because he wants to be paid elite LT money after seeing what Tunsil got. Not sure I wanna give up assets and money to keep him long term. And a second round pick for a 1 year rental is a lot
 
I'm honestly leaning towards keeping AJ, Flowers, Karras (specially now interest has leaked out), Kindley and Hunt starting. Heck if he's near vet minimum cheap I'm even willing to resign Julien Davenport and just draft one late interior guy.
 
Yup, if you trade for him now you almost have to give him anything he asks for on his next contract. Let him hit the open market and then make an offer if you are so inclined.

Frankly I think we will be okay with our current tackles. Hunt played much better at RT in the later part of the year than many here seem to acknowledge.

Most teams with a right handed QB run to the right and count on a left guard that can pull. I think we should run to the left and if anything find a left guard that can pull. Hunt can move well enough to do that. Kindley can't IMHO and should be the left guard down the road. Ot we run to the right and replace Flowers with someone that can pull and park Kindley next to Hunt at right guard. This is likely an easier ask.
 
Live in ravens country. This dude was raw as they come and has transitioned into a good player. He clearly wants to play Lt to get paid and he’s very young. With the ravens you have a shot at playoffs sb at any given time. He wants money not to win - Screams diva - I will pass
 
If the draft compensation is right, I would consider it. Look at it this way, we have Jackson on the cheap for 4 more years at LT. With Tua our lefty QB, our RT is like most teams LT situation. We would pay Brown like a LT because at RT he would be our version of a LT.
 
Not sure why we would make such a move..
 
Not keen on this unless the compensation is a 3rd rounder or something, gonna have to pay him a wedge next year to keep him.

There are some really good tackle prospects in this draft, why wouldn’t we just draft one and then you have him on his rookie contract for the next 4 years Without wrecking your salary cap between now and then?
