00:00like how do you think that goes like if they bring a kid in and he shows in camp what
00:06do you do from
00:07there you probably if morgan moses is healthy what you do is you use him like you did there
00:13munford a year ago you play him as that tackle eligible tight end to get him some nfl reps and
00:19essentially he's your top swing tackle for the year i guess the question is do the patriots have
00:25a good enough roster where they could draft someone in the first round to be a backup in year one
00:31it's it's debatable but tackles a position that you can't mess with i mean think about the last
00:35three years in foxborough is i think both sides of the offensive line just massive holes right tackle
00:41left tackle and with morgan moses turning i think he's turning what 35 it might be this week you do
00:48need you know really good depth there and frankly you have to start preparing for 2027 when maybe
00:54he's retired so yeah so basically thayer munford top backup i think that's how i would handle it
00:59okay but what if they like again what if they're they they prove that they're capable of more than
01:05that i mean you can't just you can't just keep them as a swing tackle if you believe they're an
01:09upgrade to what you currently have correct right so if he in the event he beats out morgan moses you
01:15have to look at the contract i can do that really fast a cut post june 1st for morgan it's
01:22actually not
01:22a terrible dead money hit is 5.9 million on your cap you save 4.5 million yeah it's it's
01:29an it's an
01:29interesting thing i don't i think if i'm the patriots i probably try to target right tackle
01:35day two in in round two and sometimes that's difficult to do i mean like historically a good
01:40starting caliber tackle goes in the first round um in an ideal scenario the patriots land a starter
01:4731 maybe edge rusher and they find their tackle the future in round two or three that's that's how
01:53you know my my perfect scenario which you know life isn't perfect
01:56you
