I think his ceiling would be that of a guy who is, as you say, a fringe core player.
So, I would agree that he has an outside chance of becoming that player, although I don’t think he can do it year in and year out. Like most very good role players, they are capable of popping a year or 2 where they look like AS or even make the AS team, deservedly. However, they will have other years where they aren’t much better than a replacement player.
However, he is most likely “just” a solid role player capable of carrying an offense for a week or so. While he is making little to no money (basically for the next 2 seasons), that is quite valuable. No denying that.
But there isn’t risk there and you can replace him within the organization and since you don’t care about winning, just do that.
Yea, Lamar does a poor job of finding his second, third and 4th options.
There are a lot of Little things that he doesn’t do well. They get covered up by his legs but that will only last for so long.

I still think this would be a great idea . The Colts have the #21 selection and Costanzo is retiring. I’d see if the want Brown for the #21 and #117. On the positive side Brown is a proven LT and many mock drafts have them drafting a collection OT.
For sure, thanks. I guess my surprise was more at the fact that the Marlins gave Chen such a huge contract. Talk about JAGs. Also amazed that out of all the stars in the MLB (Kershaw, Betts, Harper, etc.) that there wasn't one player last year who got paid more than $22 million.
