It will be difficult to move him now (for much draft capital) with such large numbers in 2022 and 2023.
Houston Texans Restructure Laremy Tunsil’s Contract
Kick the can down the road.www.battleredblog.com
NC had his chance to try to move him during the off-season.
Maybe a team in desperate need later on during the year will roll the dice; we shall see.
No, I had said in the off-season that I think NC should work on it if he has a vision where the team will be in a couple of years.
I don't see it.

I said Britt and Cannon are more a question for their health.

I think I know what the coaches are thinking for right tackle as they have started him there. If they did not think he was better than average he would not be starting.
How do you know what the coaches think?
If they thought Heck could play LT well he would already be playing LT and Tunsil would already be traded.
Truth is you hope Heck can play LT and have been advocating for Tunsil to be traded for yrs. Why, because you want the draft pick and cap space.
I value guys that can play and protect the young QB's blindside. We just have totally different thoughts on how to build a team. Give me all pro's and the money doesn't matter since the QB is on his rookie deal.
History.

Tunsil might not already be traded as teams have not offered enough.
As Tunsil's contract was extended in 2020 why would I be concerned about it for years? I agree before then I was concerned about how his and Watson's extension would be handled..as were others. I in fact thought Tunsil's deal though high last two years was good from standpoint of annual avg. Same thought as I expressed as advantage to a team trading for him now with the less than one million base lowering his remaining three seasons to just over $12 per avg.
Yes for this team and what I see as the next two to three years I do prefer draft picks and reduction of cap cost rather than a pro-bowler protecting nothing much at QB.
We have different thoughts? Yep for many years on many things and I do not see that changing.
I love crown and four roses but choose not to drink anymore. I see a trade of tunsil only if a huge deal is offered for him.

I don't understand your last sentence.
Texans restructure LT Laremy Tunsil's contract; save over $10 million in cap space
The Houston Texans have restructured Laremy Tunsil’s salary and have saved over $10 million in salary cap space.
Sure he would if he thought a <$1 m base would attract other teams. That's all a purchasing team would pay for this season less game checks paid by Houston. Teams eat dead $ all the time. Plus it added over 15 million cap IIRC which was used
Nothing changes for Tunsil regarding 2022 and 2023.

Not sure what the other team will be willing to give up.
Again I think you're wrong, Caserio just ate 5 million dead money for Roby and we received a second round pick. I could see him eating 8 million dead money in 2022 for more than a round one pick. To clarify I posted I would only do a deal if the return is huge such as two first-round picks from the Bengals. The cap savings for 2023 would be 17 million-16 Million Dead money= a $1 million profit lowering dead total cost from 8 to 7.
You seem to understand my point of view. I am seeing Tunsil as a tool that can improve the team but does not have to be utilized. As you stated he is in the prime of his career and as he started 2021 it appeared he was well on his way to another Pro Bowl appearance. The lack quality at QB is what leads me to want to trade him for good assets.
He could change my mind but for now I see him as an O Guard and not high on our priority list for that position. He is a brawler but IMO needs to fill out frame.

Draft Bible Take on Jaxson Kirkland: Superb Agility, Good Weight
The Husky offensive tackle continues to hear glowing tributes about his ability.
I was a solid follower of Joel for years prior to his death which was a devastating loss to people such as me. No I rarely go to a team's roster for any information other than verifying red shirt freshman year. I do not feel I can get honest evaluation from the college teams website.
We have to get more quality players. 2:1 for Tunsil plus $18 million cap space for free agents or trades.
I agreed that a trade is unlikely but would you trade him to the New York Jets for their highest round 1 in '22 and their round 1 in '23?
IIRC Jags got 1.20 in 2020 and 1.25 in 2021 + a 4th in 2020. Nowhere near where Jets picks projected in my deal.
In 2024, Tunsil will be an UFA.
Whatever the highest contract for a LT would be at that time.
I'm sure Tunsil will want to extend with a team losing 12 games a season.
Remains to be seen if we have just a young Qb or a good young QB. I think we are going to slide around through 2022 and then get a QB. In meantime I want to draft for the future a team that will be ready for that future QB.
