OT:
Ricky Wagner / 84.5 / 27 / Ravens / 926 / UFA
Ty Nsekhe / 75.4 / 31 / Redskins / 386 / RFA (31 year old RFA ?!?)
Christopher Hubbard / 72.8 / 26 / Steelers / 326 / RFA
Cameron Fleming / 71.9 / 24 / Patriots / 284 / RFA
Menelik Watson / 70.0 / 28 / Raiders / 255 / UFA
Wagner = 47 games started
Watson = 17 games started
Fleming = 14 games started
Nsekhe = 6 games started
Hubbard = 4 games started
Really only one clear cut option in Wagner with, perhaps, some interest in Watson but, honestly, I would rather roll with Clark or Haeg. Although Watson is a former 2nd round draft pick (#42 overall in 2013) he missed all of 2015 due to injury and Haeg has nearly as many games starting in one season in the NFL as Watson has during 3 seasons.
OG:
Kevin Zeitler / 87.1 / 27 / Bengals / 1087 / UFA
T.J. Lang / 85.7 / 29 / Packers / 791 / UFA
Andrew Norwell / 85.7 / 25 / Panthers / 1108 / RFA
Larry Warford / 82.0 / 26 / Lions / 974 / UFA
Ronald Leary / 81.8 / 28 / Cowboys / 803 / UFA
John Jerry / 78.2 / 31 / Giants / 1060 / UFA
Austin Pasztor / 77.3 / 26 / Browns / 1020 / UFA
Patrick Omameh / 77.1 / 27 / Jaguars / 454 / UFA
Jahri Evans / 76.8 / 34 / Saints / 1137 / UFA
Stefen Wisniewski / 75.2 / 28 / Eagles / 606 / UFA
Evan Mathis 74.9 G 35 Cardinals 199 UFA
Ryan Jensen / 73.1 / 26 / Ravens / 273 / RFA
Ted Larsen / 72.3 / 30 / Bears / 581 / UFA
Oday Aboushi / 71.9 / 26 / Texans / 267 / UFA
Tim Lelito / 70.5 / 28 / Saints / 405 / UFA
For as thin as the OT free agency class is, the OG class is pretty stacked. 8 full times starters (around 800+ snaps in a season) plus a lot of guys who were, perhaps, not full time starters but played a good number of snaps and performed well.
If we bring in an O-Line body, it needs to be at the top of our talent depth chart and not just another body because we have a good pick of good guys....not great guys.
If we go O-Line in free agency, I would bet it would be for right OG and then letting Reitz, Clark, Good and Haeg battle it out for starting RT duties with the other three being the primary backups along with Blythe.
Cheers,
