Who will be the best few FA right Tackles next off season?

Not alot. The ones I'd be looking at are Jack Conklin and Elgton Jenkins. I think both should hit the market. Browns have so much cash elsewhere and Packers usually let there O-line talent walk.

Unless Bremdel balks out, would like to see McCoy targeted at C. I still think Brunskill can play RT at a good level

Nobody worth signing

They will not spend the money to outbid teams for a solid tackle when almost every team is looking for those. They will draft one or move one of the young guys they have on the roster to RT

Probably best to brace yourselves for them to resign McGlinchy

Just get one with the 64th pick in the draft.

Actually it'll be pick 63 since the dolphins lost their first round pick.

Hate to say it, but McGlinchey. Best case scenario: Burford develops and moves to RT. Poe develops and gets a deal to play RG. Draft a higher end center on day two of the next draft; we have 3 3rd round picks.

He probably is. My desire to move on from McGlinchey is just a cost saving move. The guy is a good tackle in spite of his issues. But I'd rather we prioritize other free agents and just develop some guys here. Honestly, it's about time we developed an O-line guy that we drafted.

Hard to just develop a RT. You need to draft or get real talent in FA at tackle. We can't jkust keep trying to make guards tackles. Get some talent and protect your qb.

Prior to his injury, Jenkins was very good. #11 among all tackles, per PFF. IF GB lets him hit the FA market, he will go very high.

Conklin is a very good run blocker but roughly the same as McGlinchey in PP. It would be cheaper to extend McGlinchey than to let him walk and try to outbid the market for Conklin.

With most DCs switching their pass rushers to go against the weakest OTs, any time a good OT hits the market, they will go high. I don't look for FA to improve our situation. Better to hope McGlinchey gets healthy and plays back to the form that made him a top 25 OT.

O-line should be the heftiest need this offseason with the other positions pretty locked up and solidified so i can imagine looking towards the draft for a RT. Would rather keep the big splash FA acquisition for the safety position, getting Bates

Good not great run blocker but only average pass protector.

Who would fill our needs best in your opinions?

McGlinchey. Teams don't usually just let good tackles walk. You're going to be dealing with guys that are either way up in years and regressing, very injury prone or in case a rare unicorn escapes, its going to cost a small fortune to sign one.

This is a reality that is going to bite people HARD in terms of O-line talent out there. I prefer we draft and develop a guy simply because of the price I expect McGlinchey to go for.

McGlinchey is adequate he just isnt the pro bowler guy we were are hoping for. i dont think you could improve over him in free agency unless its a guy looking for a max contract that we cant afford.
