Yosh may be our RT of the future...kid has balled out after being thrown into the furnace.

He's a RFA after the season.   Not sure we can afford to pay him what he deserves.   

He was undrafted so we can't do the original round tender so that means we would have to do a 2nd round tender.   That means offer him a 1 year deal for 3.5 million.   If someone is super high on him they would have to give us a 2nd round pick to sign him to a better deal than that.   

Keep in mind that we still need to extend Jenkins.   Patrick is also a UFA.   

We will have a ton of coin tied up on Bahk and Jenkins.   Meyers, Runyon and Newman will all be on affordable rookie deals.   So there is some money there for a RT, but not a ton.

I'm a bit of a skeptic regarding PFF grades, but he's held up pretty well at LT.

He's had some questionable moments this season, especially game one...he's better than most backup LT for sure, but he's not been as good as he needs to be.

IMHO, Yosh has earned his playing time.
I think he's better at LT than RT, but if he is willing to have a go at it, he deserves the opportunity.

FWIW, it looked like Daktari struggled a bit later in the game, and I wondered if conditioning was a factor. That may preclude a move to RT if they still need to rotate Nijman for a few series.
