Funny enough, that’s how they used Mykel some of the time at UGA (and how him numbers weren’t high) he slid inside - they had Walker and would use guys like Wilson II, Wilson, or Harris across from Walker at the edge on passing downs. -
I will say this: The Steelers used to be notorious for letting players go in what seemed to be their primes and that player would often begin their downward trajectory. Barry Foster, for example, came to the Panthers from Pittsburgh and was a dud. Kevin Greene shows the other side. If Moton's knees are not as bad as thought, he could play another 4 seasons. If deteriorating knees leads to deteriorating performance, then we held the hot potato too long. This is true with every player, and I have read articles about players on third contracts compared to first and second contracts and most NFL players seem to be overpaid--but OL tend to earn their money and hold up the best, based on my memory. I do not care about how a player retires or how a player might feel if traded--that is part of the business and they are compensated very well. I do, however, worry about the locker room; if players see vets getting sent to the slaughter house, it may impact their psyche. So it is a delicate situation. Moton is one of the high character, dependable, quality players on the roster. We have not worried about RT for nearly a decade (Flashback: Super Bowl 50). We have him under contract for another season and his knees are questionable, based on rumor. If you trade him based on his knees, you will not get value for him--the trade could get vetoed. With his age, health, and contract situation, you are not getting more than a fourth rounder for him--not enough to replace his productivity. There is a time when you try to squeeze a few more brushings out of the tooth paste tube and there is a time to throw it away. Is there toothpaste left in the tube? Yep. Is it possible that the time to throw the tube away happens during the season? Yep. I understand the logic behind the OP's point and it is nothing that should solicit personal criticisms and rude reactions that are offensive. Learn how to disagree. However, if you see the problems other teams have at OT for years, etc. those of you wanting Moton to stay are also endorsing the idea of having a rookie OT on the right side in 2026, when this team should be competitive. The coin has 2 sides. I think you draft that RT this season (day 2) and you leave Moton there--but I get it if Morgan trades Moton for more picks to help us meet our needs. We need an edge, a S, and an OT right now--with Moton on the roster--in my view. That player would develop and serve as depth (knees). You don't draft for 2025 needs only. These are 4-year contracts. -

The tinfoil hat version is they're waiting until after the draft so some teams think we might go OT in the draft? Idk lol
