If they moved on from Trent, I expected them to sign a veteran left tackle as insurance for the rookie left tackle they'll draft in the first round...
Max Iheanachor, come on down.

We're still trying to replace McKivitz? He's not even an issue on the oline, he's been improving each year, it's C and LG that needs the damn replacement

If they trade Trent I would prefer a pick in next yrs draft…that class (overall) is suppose to be much better than this yr.
I still think Trent will be here for 2 seasons.

Sure they could do a lot worse than McKivitz, but they could also do a lot better.

He was good last year. You're not gonna find better OL for what he makes.

Is allowing a pressure every 1 in 11 snaps good?

Sounds like they are signing trent and have upgraded his back up. So trent will play less. hopefully ask for less too.

its okay for a swing tackle, but really because of sample size (about 5 games of snaps) it doesnt tell you much imo

Trent's ratio last season was 1 pressure allowed every 16 pass blocks.

Well we also have a glaring hole at LG. So he could be a LT or LG starter and depth here.

If we are making a run, you keep big Trent. If not, you get even younger and go get a new LT.
