2023 NFL free agency OT market Breaking down top left right offensive tackles including Orlando Brown Jr.

The NFL is mere days away from the Nick Mullens Jersey official start of the 2023 season. The new league year begins March 15, and teams will spend the next several months trying to upgrade their rosters so that they can potentially take down the defending championnext season.Part of that proce s, of course, is free agency. With that in mind, we're going to be taking a look at the players likely available to be signed this offseason. We're going position by position, beginning this week on the offensive side of the ball.We've already,, and . Today, we'll continue with the offensive tackle market. Instead of ranking the linemen, though, we're going to break them down by position, and give you an overview of what types of players are available.

Most teams that have Terrell Owens Jersey quality left tackles do not let them hit the open market. The best player here is Orlando Brown, and it's looking like the Chiefs will use the franchise tag on him once again. The rest of the group is fairly uninspiring, though James was a pretty good player before injuries derailed his career. Lewan could be worth a low-cost flier because he won't count against a team's compensatory pick formula, but age, injuries, and declining play are why he's on the street at this stage of his career.Right tacklesPlayer2022 TeamTypeSnapsAgeCowboysRFA69.1%26UFA97.7%26UFA75.3%27FalconsUFA100.0%28UFA94.4%28UFA0.0%28ChiefsUFA95.0%29RaidersUFA85.4%29UFA11.5%29ChargersRFA7.1%29FalconsUFA0.8%29UFA25.8%31DolphinsUFA72.1%31BroncosUFA42.5%32UFA97.9%34JetsUFA5.5%34UFA52.5%35UFA19.8%35There is quite a bit more to choose from when looking for players to play on the right side of the line than there is on the left. McGary and McGlinchey have been above-average starters for most of their careers. Taylor has Frank Gore Jersey flashed upside but not nece sarily consistency. Wylie has become a solid starter in Kansas City and Pipkins Raheem Mostert Jersey acquitted himself just fine for the Chargers this past season. Steele (a restricted free-agent coming off an injury) just had the best year of his career. And there are some former left tackles who have swung over to the opposite side of the line and extended their careers, like Beachum, Remmers, and Reiff, while Turner has played all over the line throughout his career.

There are varying levels of competence among this group, and also varying levels of experiences. Nijman has filled in at both left and right tackle over the past couple seasons in Green Bay, but he's a restricted free agent. Dillard's a former first-round pick who never cracked the lineup in Philly, while Wynn's a former first-rounder who has Deion Sanders Jersey seemingly declined during his tenure with the Patriots. Fant has been a starter on both sides of the line, while Fleming and Erving are longtime swing tackles who have also been asked to start at different stages of their career, and the same is true of Nsekhe.
