Cleveland Browns Free Agency Preview - Guard

**Ben Bartch** - If you are looking for a third guard then he is an ideal choice, he has been a talented player when playing the last two years.

**Matt Pryor** - I'm really not sure how he doesn't get paid more. He has flexibility from guard to tackle and seems to do a good job whenever called upon. I would expect him to be a $3-4m a year player but he is annually the veteran minimum.

**Alijah Vera-Tucker** - If you want a significant upside swing then Vera-Tucker is they guy. You could end up with fantastic guard play, the issue is injuries are also a concern. If they feel they have the depth if he isn't healthy then he could be an option.

**David Edwards** - I would be surprised if the Bills let him walk but if they do the Browns should be moving fast to sign him.

**Isaac Seumalo** - He is Mr Consistent, that is an ideal trait for a great offensive lineman. The Cleveland Browns should move hard if the Steelers don't sign him before free agency starts.

**Joel Bitonio** - If he is willing to keep playing then his level of play plus his leadership would be a massive benefit for an offensive line in transition. He was PFF's 7th best pass blocking guard last year despite all the talk he wasn't the player he previously was.

**Kevin Zeitler** - He would be a fantastic one year bridge, but after proving himself with the Titans you would assume he moves to a contender.

**Teven Jenkins** - I think the Browns should try hard to bring him back. I'm not sure how he was only paid $3m last year but I would expect him to get slightly more this year. Even if he is a starter who is then replaced by a day two draft pick you are then left with an elite swing guard.

**Wyatt Teller** - His performance was inconsistent all season, he had games where he was elite and then others where he was a replacement level player. You can't have players like this on an offensive line, consistency is key.
