Compromised OL Off season plan

[Isaac Curtis: The Real #85]

We now have to ask, who are the best FA lineman?

I mean, we are picking 29th (at best), the chances a plug and play OL falls to us are slim, though not impossible. But we should not rely on that and then have to reach in the draft.

Also, we need help at all 3 spots, RT, RG, and C. Plus Spain is a FA. And I am not sold on Jonah as a high end LT.

I am mot an OL guru. I cannot say that this player is a better run blocker or pass blocker. I have to rely on stats for that. Nor can I discern if a player fits within a certain scheme. But I can compile lists of the top FAs on the offensive line. Grades & estimated salary listed.
