Haven't the Bills heard the expression "too many Cooks...."?Bills (+$5.5M), Jets (+$23.1M) and Dolphins(+$13.1M) are all going hard after RB Dalvin Cook.
This should be fun to watch
There arn't good OT's available. Worse yet, not many available in the draft.It is truly amazing the number of OTs that teams are bringing in for tryouts. According to NFL TradeRumors.com, a number of OTs have pulled up lame or extremely sore. They believe that many of them have minor injuries that teams will not take any chances that could worsen.
Patriots signed Calvin Anderson and Rielly Reiff as potential back ups. Rieff will be starting on the left side and Anderson hasn't even been able to practice.
I haven't seen any of these names visiting anywhere. Might be soimeone here who could at least 'help' for the short term.
Offensive Tackles
George Fant
George Fant had both good and bad moments in his last two seasons with the Jets when called to start multiple games due to Mekhi Becton’s consecutive season-ending injuries. In 2021, Fant impressed in 840 at left tackle (one sack and 18 pressures and a 71.1 offense grade on PFF). He split time between left and right tackle in 2022 but struggled with consistency (five sacks and 27 pressures in 372 pass-blocking snaps) and injuries (just eight games played). Fant will have value as a swing tackle in free agency as teams gear up for training camp.
Cameron Erving
Cameron Erving was forced into a reserve role with the Carolina Panthers last season when the team replaced him at left tackle through the draft with first-round pick Ikem Ekwonu. Erving has never been able to stick as a starter for long periods of time, but he’s been a solid backup throughout the entirety of his career and would add solid depth to any team. More importantly, Erving has spent time at tackle, guard, and center during his time in the NFL, which gives him added appeal as the ultimate offensive line stopgap.
Ja’Wuan James
The injury bug hasn’t been kind to Ja'Wuan James throughout his career. In seven career seasons, the veteran tackle has played in double-digit games just three times (2014, 2016 and 2018). Unfortunately for James, his last two season-ending injuries have come from Achilles tendon tears. Time will tell how much these injuries have sapped James' physical abilities, but to this point, he has proven to be an excellent player when on the field. The veteran tackle has only given up 23 career sacks and 147 pressures in 2,348 pass-blocking snaps.
Taylor Lewan
Many will see the name Taylor Lewan out on the free agency wire and wonder how he hasn’t found a team yet. Despite Lewan’s name recognition and high level of play, it seems extremely unlikely that Lewan will be on an NFL team next year. Lewan recently filed a lawsuit against Dr. James Andrews after his 2020 ACL repair caused permanent damage that “likely cut Lewan’s NFL career short.” There may be a team that rolls the dice on Lewan, hoping that he can provide a veteran presence and league-average play, but at this point, it seems unlikely that he will be in the NFL going forward.
Ahh...Pittsburgh.Jets still trying to find the OT they did not get in the draft......
