in 2013 only 2 of the top 10 free agent Offensive Linemen hit the market. Not a single one that did change teams was an impact on their new team. History just shows getting an impact free agent Offensive linemen is next to impossible.

2014 was even worse, find me the impact starter?

 

When the dust settles I don't expect to many quality 2015 Offensiveline free agents to hit the market, hopefully we can find one but they best shot is in the draft.

Albert and Veldheer were both big time free agent tackles in 2014 so I'm not sure where you get players not being out there.

 

The best shot is in FA. The biggest gamble is in the draft. You want to talk about only 20% of the top FA linemen hitting the market. The odds of picking a top NFL lineman in the draft are even smaller. Only a few out of the dozens and dozens picked ever amount to anything, and if teams used your standard of giving up on them after a year and a half, those odds would get even smaller.

 

When the dust settles, don't expect any of our top picks to go to the oline. There are too many other areas that could use some young high end talent.
