Orlando Brown Fantasy

Kansas City Chiefs left tackle Orlando Brown, who was acquired from the Baltimore Ravens last week, is heading into the final year of his contract. But the former third-round pick wants to prove he was worth the trade while also being worthy of a long-term deal with the Chiefs. "I want to be here for a long time, I do," Brown said. "I'm going to make sure I take care of my part, and that's handling my business on the football field." There is currently no extension in the works for Brown, and the Chiefs will likely wait until after the year to discuss a new deal. They could also use the franchise tag on Brown, if necessary. A two-time Pro Bowler at right tackle, Brown excelled in the move to left tackle last year in Baltimore. After a disastrous Super Bowl experience for the Chiefs offensive line, Brown is expected to solidify quarterback Patrick Mahomes' blind side.

The Kansas City Chiefs are trading their first-round pick (No. 31 overall) in next week's NFL draft on Thursday and three other picks in this year's and next year's draft to the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for Pro Bowl offensive tackle Orlando Brown and one pick in the 2021 draft and another in 2022, according to sources. Brown requested a trade from Baltimore because he wants to play left tackle and is currently blocked by Ronnie Stanley. The Chiefs had an opening at the left tackle spot after long-time left tackle Eric Fisher was cut earlier in the offseason, as well as right tackle Mitchell Schwartz. With Fisher and Schwartz unavailable in last year's Super Bowl due to injuries, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive line essentially won the game by continuously pressuring quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Brown should help solidify Mahomes' blind side.

Sources have indicated that Baltimore Ravens offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr.'s camp has had ongoing trade conversations with six teams. Brown has demanded a trade this offseason because he's come to the realization that an extended stay in Baltimore would mean being stuck at right tackle, and his goal is to play left tackle in the NFL. He's slated to make $3.384 million in the final year of his current deal and said that a new deal with his next team would be a part of the trade process. Brown was moved to left tackle when Ronnie Stanley was injured in 2020, and it affirmed his belief that the left side is where he belongs. Brown earned a Pro Bowl nod for his play in 2020, so he is proving to be a coveted trade option on the left side.
