I think he’s the exact guy that you franchise this year (rather than a longer extension). Finally is healthy for an entire season and excels in the exact way envisioned when we drafted him. We franchise him, keep the option to extend (or franchise again) if he becomes the next LT, see if Speaks can evolve, and continue in win-now mode rather than letting a talented player go.
Go fill in holes and build from the draft. I get that many of you can’t see straight because of anger, but we were really close with our existing team. This wasn’t a fluke.
