Offense

Quarterbacks

Derek Carr (31), Saints - The first domino to fall under center, Carr and New Orleans set the 2023 replacement-level market with a four-year, $150 million contract (including $60 million guaranteed) that in actuality boils down to a two-year deal worth $21.4 million annually against the cap given that the organization can cut ties in 2025 for $28.6 million in relief. 32 years old in Week 1, Carr has not finished inside the top 20 in fantasy points per game at his position (including a QB22 finish last year) since undergoing fibula surgery in 2017. His atypical 14.1% rate of throws 20 yards downfield (10th) also proved useless in completing just 33.8% (29th) of said attempts, a hair stronger than Andy Dalton's league-low 26.3% rate.

Geno Smith (32), Seahawks - Frontloaded a three-year, $75 million contract with up to $52 million guaranteed in the first season, Smith, the 2023 Comeback Player of the Year, was handsomely rewarded after leading the league in completion rate (69.8%), Next Gen Stats' Completion Percentage Over Expectation, and touchdown rate (11.4%) on throws 10 yards deep. Admittedly hit a wall down the stretch with seven interceptions and four fumbles from Week 12 on. Seahawks undoubtedly remain "totally connected" to the incoming class under center given Smith's bridge-framed renewal.

Daniel Jones (26), Giants - One of only 10 quarterbacks to average 18 points per game (with a career-high 18.1) in his first season under Brian Daboll, Jones' representatives won out with a four-year, $160 million contract including $94 million virtually guaranteed upon signing; Jones' $19 million cap hit in 2023 remains as team-friendly as possible but leaps to $45 million (with $18 million in dead money if he's cut) the following year. With an additional 7.0 rushing points per game tacked on via his legs, Jones remains a middle-of-the-road QB1 with rushing upside pending the great lengths GM Joe Schoen goes to in order to upgrade his quarterback's surrounding cast.

Lamar Jackson (26), Ravens - Slapped with the non-exclusive franchise tag for $32.4 million, which Jackson will unequivocally avoid playing on at all costs. Also ensures Baltimore can match (if they choose to) any offer that Jackson receives, or pass on the option for two first-round picks; the Falcons, Dolphins, Commanders, Panthers, and Raiders reportedly will not be pursuing him as the league's owners continue to collude in order to make Deshaun Watson's fully guaranteed contract an outlier. Currently being drafted as the overall QB6, Lamar has quietly lacked a ceiling with just five top-five finishes (out of 24 appearances) the past two seasons including none from Week 4 on last year.

Jimmy Garoppolo (31), Raiders - Reunites with coach Josh McDaniels on a three-year, $67.5 million contract. Although Garoppolo's inability to throw deep, finishing outside the top-20 in completion rate 20 yards downfield in back-to-back years, undeniably caps Davante Adams' ceiling as the current WR7 inside the first 10 picks, the latter arguably holds a higher floor in 2023 given Jimmy G's stellar 64% completion rate to the intermediate level of the field, where Derek Carr ranked 32nd (52%) under McDaniels; that 10-19 yard range is where Adams was notably schemed a career-high 30% of his targets in year one with Las Vegas.

Mike White (27), Dolphins - Tua Tagovailoa's insurance policy signed to a two-year, $16 million contract. Three 300-yard performances in seven career starts.

Andy Dalton (35), Panthers - Understands the assignment to show the No. 1 overall pick the ropes at the next level for $8 million guaranteed. Most recently finished top-five in completion rate inside the red zone (with an 11:1 TD:INT ratio to boot) with the Saints.

Jacoby Brissett (26), Commanders - Veteran signal-caller brought on for $8 million to push Sam Howell in training camp. Serviceable 64% completion rate and No. 7 in Football Outsiders' DVOA metric among quarterbacks as a pure game manager in 11-game stint with Cleveland.

Taylor Heinicke (28), Falcons - Essentially signed to a one-year deal with $6.3 million guaranteed given that the organization can cut ties in order to save $7 million against the cap next offseason. Averaged just 7.1 YPA while engineering Washington's 5-3-1 run down the stretch last year.

Jarrett Stidham (26), Broncos - Signed to a two-year, $10 million contract to backup Russell Wilson. Surprisingly flashed production in a pinch off the bench, completing 64.2% of his passes for four touchdowns, three interceptions, and 8.3 yards per attempt across Vegas' last two games. Averaged 7-42 rushing in that stint.

Marcus Mariota (28), Eagles - Mobility with 6.5 scrambles per game in 13 starts for the Falcons last year allows OC Brian Johnson to keep an identical gameplan intact if Jalen Hurts were to miss any time. One-year, $5 million contract.

Baker Mayfield (27), Buccaneers - One-year, $4 million contract to compete with Kyle Trask (lol). Lauded for his last two drives against the Raiders (16-for-21, 145 yards, TD) and 60 minutes against a team that fired its coach the next day, Mayfield completed just 52.5% of his passes for 5.9 YPA beyond those 70 minutes with the Rams.

Gardner Minshew (26), Colts - The QB9, QB18, QB7, and QB17 in his last four starts under Shane Steichen. One-year, $3.5 million agreement gives the Colts freedom to draft a project (read: Anthony Richardson) under center.

Drew Lock (26), Seahawks - Re-signed to a one-year, $4 million contract in order to ... well, I really don't know why.

Carson Wentz (30)

Sam Darnold (25), 49ers - Option C if both Brock Purdy (elbow surgery) and Trey Lance (ankle surgery) are unable to recover ahead of Week 1. Hidden for 23.3 pass attempts per game (and ensuing 8.1 YPA) over his last six starts with the Panthers.

Cooper Rush (29), Cowboys - Elite game manager re-signed to a two-year deal. 5-1 record in place of Dak Prescott the last two seasons.

Case Keenum (35), Texans - Competent 67% completion rate in his last two spot-starts for Cleveland in 2021. Locker room veteran suddenly available to mentor the No. 2 overall pick akin to Josh McCown's and Sam Darnold's friendship in New York.

Chase Daniel (36)

Jeff Driskel (29)

Joe Flacco (38)

Josh Johnson (36)

Mason Rudolph (27)

Teddy Bridgewater (30)

Trace McSorley (27)

Running Backs

Miles Sanders (25), Panthers - Caped for by RBs coach Duce Staley, who had a hand in drafting Sanders with the Eagles in 2019, for a four-year, $25 million contract including $13 million guaranteed. Philadelphia's first 1,000-yard rusher since LeSean McCoy in 2014, Sanders arguably has an untapped ceiling assuming increased involvement in Carolina's passing game after seeing his target share progressively decrease in every season (10.3% < 8.7% < 6.9% < 5.4%) as a four-year starter.

David Montgomery (25), Lions - Detroit threw themselves at Montgomery with a three-year, $18 million contract including the fifth-most guaranteed cash ($11 million) of any free Agent running back since 2020. Inarguably better at doing all the dirty work (ala Jamaal Williams) than D'Andre Swift, Montgomery is fully expected to lead Detroit's explosive offense in touches following four consecutive seasons with at least six touchdowns and 1,000 yards from scrimmage.

Josh Jacobs (25), Raiders - Jacobs was given Las Vegas' $10.09 million franchise tag following a league-high 393 touches as the RB4 in points per game in his first year under Josh McDaniels. One of only five running backs over the last decade to register that amount in a single season, Jacobs is vying to be the first among that group to record more than 237 touches the following year.

Tony Pollard (26), Cowboys - Expectation is Pollard "should be ready for training camp" following January's fibula surgery and ensuing $10.09 million franchise tag. Touches per game alongside Ezekiel Elliott encouragingly increased from 10.1 in 2021 to 13.7 last year. Note that Pollard has also recorded overall RB1, RB7, and RB3 finishes in three career starts for Zeke.

Saquon Barkley (26), Giants - The odd man out with New York's $10.09 million franchise tag after the organization agreed to a lucrative four-year contract with Daniel Jones. Fully healthy for the first time since his rookie campaign, Barkley recorded a career-high in carries (295) while leading the Giants with 76 targets (sixth-most among running backs). The RB5 in points per game under Brian Daboll, Barkley's 14.5% share of his team's targets (the fourth-highest rate at his position) are a looming question mark given GM Joe Schoen's transparent plans to upgrade at wide receiver.

Jamaal Williams (27), Saints - Pads for Alvin Kamara's potential absence (pending the results of his July 31 trial) in the short term while insuring Kamara does not record a third consecutive season handling 77% of New Orleans' backfield touches. Respectable $8 million guaranteed on a three-year, $12 million contract.

Rashaad Penny (27), Eagles - 2022's leader in yards after contact per attempt, Penny turned average run-blocking in Seattle into five top-10 finishes and 15.6/107/0.8 weekly with 6.8 yards per carry over his last nine full games. A screaming value in Best Ball leagues at the moment given his proven (albeit sporadic) ceiling available in the 14th round, note that Philadelphia is still expected to add more to its backfield in the coming months.

Samaje Perine (27), Broncos - Will immediately fly up draft boards after being recruited to Denver by Sean Payton with a two-year, $7.5 million contract. More than capable of carrying the load during Javonte Williams' inevitable "J.K. Dobbins season", as proven by Perine's 48 touches (24 per game) in two spot-starts for Joe Mixon last year. Dog.

Jeff Wilson (27), Dolphins - Re-signed to a two-year deal worth up to $8.2 million. Out-touched Raheem Mostert 59-56 in the only five games the two finished together to close the year.

James Robinson (24), Patriots - The thunder to Rhamondre Stevenson's lightning brought on to replace Damien Harris with a two-year, $8 million contract. 4.5 yards per carry in his first three games before slamming into the post-torn Achilles' wall with 3.3 YPC (across two separate teams) from Week 4 on.

Raheem Mostert (30), Dolphins - Brought back on a two-year, $5.6 million contract with $2.2 million guaranteed. Leaned on for 70% of Miami's backfield touches (and 15.4 per game) from Weeks 2-8, Mostert's workload was trimmed to 11.2 touches per game (53.6% of backfield touches) in five full starts with Jeff Wilson post-trade deadline.

Travis Homer (24), Bears - Signed to a two-year, $4.5 million contract following David Montgomery's departure to Detroit. Led Seattle's backfield in route participation on 3rd/4th down the last two seasons.

Alexander Mattison (24), Vikings - Ominously re-signed to a two-year, $7 million contract after Dalvin Cook handled a career-low 15.5 carries per game and underwent shoulder surgery after the season; the Vikings can save $5.9 million by releasing him. Mattison's box scores in six career starts for Cook: 11/30/0, 24/145/2, 32/171/0, 32/153/1, 25/124/1, and 16/70/1.

D’Onta Foreman (26), Bears - Physicality on arrival alongside Khalil Herbert and Travis Homer penned to a one-year, $3 million deal. 95.4 yards and 11.6 fantasy points per game in seven wins as Carolina's closer last year compared to 24.6 yards and 4.4 points per game in 10 losses. Touchdown-or-bust outlook.

Jerick McKinnon (30)

Kareem Hunt (27)

Devin Singletary (25)

Damien Harris (26)

Ezekiel Elliott (27)

Leonard Fournette (27)

Chase Edmonds (26), Buccaneers - Adds to what has arguably morphed into the league's most plodding backfield between himself and Rachaad White. Both Edmonds and White finished bottom-10 in Next Gen Stats' Rush Yards Over Expected last year.

Ameer Abdullah (29), Raiders - Las Vegas' change-of-pace back signed to a one-year extension after out-snapping both Josh Jacobs (72) and Brandon Bolden (40) on 3rd/4th down (135).

Boston Scott (27), Eagles - Returns to Philadelphia's backfield with Rashaad Penny and Kenneth Gainwell on a negligent one-year, $2 million contract. Nicknamed "the Giant killer" for scoring nine of his 16 career rushing scores against New York.

Darrel Williams (27)

David Johnson (31)

D’Ernest Johnson (27)

Dontrell Hilliard (28)

Giovani Bernard (31)

J.D. McKissic (29)

Justice Hill (25), Ravens - Double-digit touches in 4-of-43 career games. Re-signed to a two-year, $4.5 million contract.

Justin Jackson (26)

Kenyan Drake (29)

Latavius Murray (33)

Mark Ingram (33)

Marlon Mack (26)

Matt Breida (28), Giants - 11 touches for an anemic 3.6 yards per touch in Saquon Barkley's only absence last year.

Melvin Gordon (29)

Mike Boone (27), Texans - 52 total touches over the last three seasons. The poor man's version of Rex Burkhead behind Dameon Pierce.

Myles Gaskin (26), Dolphins - Joins Raheem Mostert, Jeff Wilson, and Salvon Ahmed in re-signing with the Dolphins. Career-low 14 touches in his first year under Mike McDaniel.

Rex Burkhead (32)

Ronald Jones (25)

Royce Freeman (27)

Ty Johnson (25)

Wide Receivers

Allen Lazard (27), Jets - Follows Aaron Rodgers (eventually) to New York on a four-year, $44 million contract with $22 million guaranteed. Provides chemistry as a boom-or-bust WR4 after soaking up a career-high 17.8% of Green Bay's targets in his first season sans Davante Adams. Quietly averaged 6.7 targets to Christian Watson's 4.7 from Week 10 on as Rodgers' favored option.

Jakobi Meyers (26), Raiders - Broke the ice on the WR market with a three-year, $33 million contract including $21 million guaranteed, just $1 million more than Russell Gage was guaranteed when signing with the Bucs. Whereas Josh McDaniels schemed a median rate (65.4%, 15th) of 11 personnel in 2022, a core trio of Davante Adams, Hunter Renfrow, and Meyers essentially guarantees more three-wide sets this upcoming year, which Jimmy Garoppolo averaged the ninth-most YPA from (7.7) last season. Previously capped for the poor structure of New England's offense, Meyers' ceiling remains capped due to the elite surrounding cast in Vegas.

Adam Thielen (32), Panthers - Rounds out Carolina's three-wide sets with Terrace Marshall and Laviska Shenault on a three-year, $25 million contract. Yards per target dipped for a fifth consecutive season to a career-low mark (6.7) in 2022.

Robert Woods (30), Texans - The first receiver on the open market to put pen to paper with a two-year, $15.2 million contract including $10 million guaranteed. Fresh off his lowest target-per-route-run rate (17.1%) since his rookie year (16.5%, 2013), Woods, top-12 in Pro Football Focus' run blocking grades at his position in back-to-back seasons, remains a better on-field asset than a viable piece for fantasy.

Deonte Harty (25), Bills - Field stretcher signed to a two-year contract worth up to $13.5 million. Lost practically all of his 2022 campaign to a toe injury; 41% of Harty's receptions in 2020 and 2021 went for 10-plus yards.

JuJu Smith-Schuster (26), Patriots - Replaces Jakobi Meyers in the slot with a three-year, $33 million contract. Averaged 7.5 targets in his first eight games with Kansas City before suffering a concussion in Week 10.

Darius Slayton (26), Giants - Returns to New York on a two-year deal after leading the team with 724 receiving yards and ranking 31st among WRs in Yards Per Route Run from Week 6 on (when he initially entered the starting lineup). Premier 'better in Best Ball' selection given his five top-36 finishes to six performances outside the top-48 receivers in that span.

Braxton Berrios (26), Dolphins - Intriguing injection into Miami's three-wide sets given Berrios' career 22% target-per-route-run rate. Reunited with Mike White.

Ashton Dulin (25), Colts - Earned a 17.6% target share in place of Alec Pierce through Indy's first two games. Two-year, $7.5 million contract.

Odell Beckham Jr. (30)

Parris Campbell (25), Giants - Another slot option in three-wide sets with Isaiah Hodgins, Wan'Dale Robinson, and Sterling Shepard brought on with a one-year, $3 million contract worth up to $6.7 million in performance incentives. Appearing in every game for the first time in his career last year, Campbell's 6.5-yard depth of target is considered a high-floor fire blanket for Daniel Jones, who was the league's only quarterback (among 25 qualifiers to attempt 240 passes) to be pressured on 40% of his throws from 11 personnel.

Sterling Shepard (30), Giants - 7.7 targets per game across 10 appearances over the last two injury-riddled seasons.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (25), Titans - Rotational deep threat re-signed to a one-year deal. Four-plus targets in only four games (out of 17) all season.

Noah Brown (27), Texans - Produced career highs across the board (43/555/3) as Dallas' No. 2 receiver by default last year. Leaves for Houston on a one-year deal.

Mecole Hardman (24)

D.J. Chark (26)

Jarvis Landry (30)

Marvin Jones (32)

Greg Dortch (24), Cardinals - Signed a one-year tender at the league minimum as an exclusive rights free Agent. Averaged 7.3 targets in the eight contests he logged at least 50% of the team's snaps.

Isaiah McKenzie (27)

DeAndre Carter (29)

Brandon Powell (26)

Rashard Higgins (28)

Richie James (27)

Sammy Watkins (29)

Scotty Miller (25)

T.Y. Hilton (33)

Trent Sherfield (27)

Trent Taylor (28), Bengals - Cincinnati's primary punt returner brought back with a one-year deal.

Zach Pascal (28)

Tight Ends

Dalton Schultz (27)

Evan Engram (29), Jaguars - Reluctantly brought back on Jacksonville's $11.34 million franchise tag following three-year highs in catches (4.3) and yards per game (45.1). Fed just 16.4% of the team's targets (eighth among tight ends) in his first season with Trevor Lawrence, Engram's increasing competition (Calvin Ridley) and lowly 6.4-yard depth of target (29th at his position) bring pause to his current TE7 ADP.

Hayden Hurst (29), Panthers - Guaranteed $13 million (!!!) on a shiny three-year, $21.75 million contract after being sandwiched 5.4 targets per game before suffering a nagging calf injury in Week 13. Immediate every-down starter.

Mike Gesicki (27), Patriots - Bill Belichick before a Patriots-Dolphins matchup in 2020: "Gesicki, he’s a big receiver...He’s not really a conventional tight end, but he’s a tough matchup in the passing game." One-year, $9 million contract as a low-end TE1 after being squeezed out of Miami's lineup on just 45% of offensive snaps. Additionally craters Hunter Henry's outlook.

Josh Oliver (25), Vikings - Asked to block on a nice 69% of his snaps with the Ravens last year, Oliver notably finished No. 2 and 19 in Pro Football Focus' pass- and run-blocking grades at his position. Signed to a laughable three-year, $21 million contract.

Juwan Johnson (26), Saints - A restricted free Agent, Saints fast-forwarded past any tender and re-signed Johnson to a two-year, $12 million contract including $8.5 million guaranteed following career-highs in receptions (2.6) and yards per game (31.8). Bound for regression in converting 6-of-9 red zone catches into touchdowns, Johnson remains viable for 3-TE builds in Best Ball given his multi-score ceiling weekly.

Irv Smith (24)

Robert Tonyan (28), Bears - The TE25 and TE29 in points per game the past two years after breaking out in his age-26 season for 52/586/11. One-year contract ultimately cannibalizes Cole Kmet's ceiling outcome.

Austin Hooper (28)

Jordan Akins (30), Browns - Career-high 33 yards per game in his final year with Houston. Two-year, $5.2 million contract to play behind David Njoku.

Foster Moreau (25)

Chris Manhertz (30), Broncos - Massive 6-foot-6, 255-pound run blocker familiar with Sean Payton from their time together with the Saints in 2015 and 2016. Two-year, $6 million contract reaffirms the team's blueprint in building its offense from the inside out.

Donald Parham (25), Chargers - Career-highs in receptions (1.7) and yards per game (21.7) in his age-25 season. Re-upped to a two-year, $2.65 million contract.

Adam Shaheen (28)

Anthony Firkser (28)

Pharaoh Brown (28)

Ross Dwelley (28)

Ryan Griffin (33)

Tyler Kroft (30)

Offensive Tackles

Mike McGlinchey (28), Broncos - Joins Ben Powers along Denver's o-line with a massive five-year, $87.5 million contract including $50 million guaranteed. Pass blocking admittedly remains a work in progress after McGlinchey allowed 36 pressures and six sacks all of last year.

Jawaan Taylor (25), Chiefs - A poor run blocker by all accounts, Taylor's 2.5% pressure rate permitted, the third-lowest mark among the league's offensive tackles, earned him a whopping four-year, $80 million contract including $60 million guaranteed to replace Orlando Brown.

Orlando Brown (26), Bengals - Cincinnati admirably strived for improvement on paper in adding Brown, who finished 18th among all tackles in ESPN's Pass Block Win Rate metric over Jonah Williams (55th) and La'el Collins (57th), on a four-year, $64 million contract. Brown's $31 million signing bonus qualifies as the largest ever for an offensive lineman.

Kaleb McGary (28), Falcons - Atlanta nixed McGary's potential $18.25 million franchise tag only to come to terms on a three-year, $34.5 million contract. Trailed only Trent Williams in Pro Football Focus' run-blocking grade among the league's tackles last year.

Andre Dillard (27), Titans - Taylor Lewan's replacement at LT, Dillard was handed a three-year, $29 million contract to return to his natural (and, so far, failed) position after logging 54-of-58 snaps on the interior in 2022.

Andrew Wylie (28), Commanders - Follows OC Eric Bieniemy to Washington on a three-year, $24 million contract. Started 24 games at RT over the last two seasons under Bieniemy including all 17 during the team’s 2022 Super Bowl run.

Trey Pipkins (26), Chargers - Returns to Los Angeles on a three-year, $21.75 million contract to continue growing with Justin Herbert. Pipkins' 4.8% pressure rate allowed in his first year as the team's starter ranked 25th among 103 tackles to log 100 snaps. Additionally pencils in Jamaree Salyer to start at LG in 2023.

Donovan Smith (29)

Isaiah Wynn (26)

Billy Turner (31)

George Fant (30)

Jermaine Eluemunor (28), Raiders - Las Vegas' starting RT in all 17 games last year. Earned Pro Football Focus' No. 21 grade among 81 qualifying OTs.

Brandon Parker (27), Raiders - Tied for the longest tenure on Las Vegas' roster, Parker was re-signed to a one-year contract after logging 77% of the team's offensive snaps as a 13-game starter last year.

Brandon Shell (31)

Calvin Anderson (26), Patriots - Swing tackle signed to a two-year deal. Familiar with Bill Belichick given Anderson's stint with the Patriots as an undrafted free Agent in 2019.

Cameron Erving (30)

Cameron Fleming (30)

Cedric Ogbuehi (30)

Chris Hubbard (31)

Chuma Edoga (25)

Geron Christian (26)

Greg Little (25)

Ja’Wuan James (30)

Josh Wells (32)

Justin Murray (29)

Kelvin Beachum (33), Cardinals - Re-signed to a two-year deal after logging 1,000 snaps in Arizona's offense for the third straight season.

Le’Raven Clark (29)

Marcus Cannon (34)

Michael Dunn (28)

Mike Remmers (33)

Oli Udoh (26), Vikings - OL depth re-signed with backup center Austin Schlottmann, Blake Brandel, and veteran Chris Reed.

Riley Reiff (34), Patriots - Tackle depth behind veteran Trent Brown and sophomore Andrew Stueber. One-year, $5 million contract.

Taylor Lewan (31)

Ty Nsekhe (37)

Interior Offensive Linemen

Ben Powers (26), Broncos - Became the NFL's sixth-highest-paid guard in agreeing to a four-year, $52 million contract including $28.5 million guaranteed. Second only to Atlanta's Chris Lindstrom in fewest pressures allowed (12) among the 29 guards to log 1,000 snaps last year.

Nate Davis (26), Bears - Graded as Pro Football Focus' 14th-best run blocking G over the last three seasons, Davis' athleticism to play beyond the line of scrimmage cemented him a three-year, $30 million contract to block for Justin Fields.

Connor McGovern (25), Bills - Agreed to a three-year, $23 million contract to protect Josh Allen after logging 1,000-plus snaps in each of the last five seasons.

Ethan Pocic (27), Browns - Pro Football Focus' highest-graded center on the open market, Pocic was re-signed to a three-year deal to ensure continuity in between Jack Conklin, Joel Bitonio, and Wyatt Teller for Deshaun Watson.

Garrett Bradbury (27), Vikings - Re-signed to a three-year, $15.75 million contract after Minnesota's pass-pro cratered without him in the lineup down the stretch. Regardless, Bradbury permitted the third-most pressures among the league's centers last year.

Bradley Bozeman (28), Panthers - Returns to Carolina on a three-year, $18 million contract to ensure all five starters from last season's unit, which finished above-average in ESPN's Pass and Run Block Win Rate metrics, are in place to protect the No. 1 overall pick.

Nick Gates (27), Commanders - Versatile interior lineman who logged 258 snaps at LG and 132 at C across eight starts last year. Signed to a three-year, $18 million deal.

Jake Brendel (30), 49ers - Prioritized with a four-year, $20 million contract the moment RT Mike McGlinchey departed for Denver.

Jarran Reed (30), Seahawks - Signed for depth purposes behind Dre'Mont Jones with a two-year contract worth up to $10.8 million.

Nate Herbig (24), Steelers - Inevitably knocks Kevin Dotson out of Pittsburgh's starting o-line with a two-year, $8 million contract. Herbig quietly registered ESPN's sixth-highest Run Block Win Rate among the league's guards during the 2022 season.

Isaac Seumalo (29), Steelers - Bounced back from a plague of previous injuries for zero quarterback hits allowed from Week 11 on with the Eagles. Three-year, $24 million contract.

Dalton Risner (27)

Will Hernandez (27), Cardinals - Limited run blocker re-upped to a two-year, $9 million contract after grading out as Pro Football Focus' eighth-overall guard in pass blocking.

Cody Ford (26), Bengals - Provides depth on the right side of Cincinnati's line (along with Jackson Carman) behind Jonah Williams.

Rodger Saffold (34)

Rodney Hudson (33)

Aaron Stinnie (29), Buccaneers - Brought back on a one-year 'prove it' deal after tearing his ACL and MCL during the preseason. Previously started in all three of Tampa Bay's postseason games during its Super Bowl LV title run.

Bobby Hart (28)

Corey Levin (28)

Dan Feeney (28), Dolphins - OL depth reunited with both Mike White and Braxton Berrios in Miami.

Daniel Brunskill (29), Titans - Swiss Army knife started every game with the Niners in 2020 and 2021, playing right guard, center and right tackle in that span. Called on for 519 offensive snaps (58%) last season despite starting only two games.

Elijah Wilkinson (28)

Greg Van Roten (33)

James Ferentz (33), Patriots - Re-signed to a one-year, $1.1 million contract to compete for a roster spot on the interior line behind starting LG Cole Strange, C David Andrews, and RG Mike Onwenu.

Jesse Davis (31)

Interior Defensive Linemen

Daron Payne (25), Commanders - An ironman who has missed just one game across five NFL seasons, Payne became the second-highest paid defensive tackle in league history in agreeing to a four-year, $90 million contract including $60 million guaranteed upon finishing third to Kansas City's Chris Jones and the Jets’ Quinnen Williams in sacks (11.5) among interior defenders. Both he and trench mate Jonathan Allen finished top-five in Pro Football Focus' Defensive Stops metric, creating Washington's No. 8 Rush Defense DVOA on the year.

Javon Hargrave (30), 49ers - Cements the league's best interior duo alongside Arik Armstead with a four-year, $84 million contract. Next Gen Stats charted Hargrave with a 14.1% pressure rate over the last two years, being the only defensive tackle to generate pressure at a 12% clip in that time.

David Onyemata (30), Falcons - Follows DC Ryan Nielsen to Atlanta with a three-year, $35 million contract. Immediately bolsters the Falcons' pass rush, which finished bottom four in creating pressure the last two seasons, ranking 11th among interior defenders in pressure rate (11.4%) since 2020.

Larry Ogunjobi (28), Steelers - Cashes in on a three-year, $28.75 million contract one year after failing his physical (and losing a $40.5 million deal for it) with Chicago. Athletic bull rusher who has registered 70 quarterback pressures over the last two seasons.

Shy Tuttle (27), Panthers - 6-foot-3, 300-pound run stuffer signed to a three-year, $19.5 million contract to ease Carolina's transition from a 4-3 to primarily 3-4 unit.

Edwards (see below) as one of the top four highest-paid linebackers in the league with a four-year, $72 million contract including $50 million guaranteed. Edmunds registered Pro Football Focus' third-highest coverage grade among off-ball LBs last year.

Bobby Okereke (26), Giants - Fresh off back-to-back seasons with at least 100 tackles and 50 defensive stops, Okereke's stellar play in place of Shaquille Leonard netted him a four-year, $40 million contract in New York.

Lavonte David (33), Buccaneers - Receives an opportunity to finish his illustrious career in Tampa with a one-year, $7 million contract. Earned PFF's second-highest coverage grade among all off-ball LBs at 32.

Alex Singleton (29), Broncos - Labeled the #TackleGod by Ryan Noonan and the sickos in the 4for4 Betting discord, Singleton was rewarded for his journey from 2015 UDFA to every-down starter with a three-year, $18 million contract following back-to-back seasons with 100 tackles.

Quincy Williams (26), Jets - Earned a three-year, $18 million contract after finishing second in tackles on his own team with 106 behind C.J. Mosley last year. Williams has totaled five sacks with above-average coverage ability since initially being cut by Urban Meyer's Jaguars in 2021.

David Long (25), Dolphins - Ascending and rangy player who finished fourth in Pro Football Focus' run defense grades last year. Ability can undoubtedly be maximized (for just $11 million across two years) with DC Vic Fangio while playing underneath Jalen Ramsey. Had he played enough snaps to qualify, Long would have led all LBs in ESPN's Run Stop Win Rate metric.

Leighton Vander Esch (27), Cowboys - Kept in Dallas on a two-year, $11 million contract after finishing second on the team in tackles (90) with four TFL, a forced fumble, and one sack.
