Well since the season was a disappointment time to look to adding talent. Let's break down by position. Start with RT
Riley Reiff is a free agent after a very average contract year making 8 million on the 5th year option. He missed 3 games with injury including the crucial last two. Reiff had an averge graded year. Solid in pass pro but took a step back in run blocking (was good at LT at run blocking in years past)
Do you want Reiff back or some of these guys or wait until the draft?

Andrew Whitworth. Stud left tackle from the Bengals (2nd rated per PFF). But he is 35 years old. We'll see if Bengals finally let him walk. He is a stud but I wouldn't move Decker. One or two year deal I'd actually take him despite his age. Had another great year in 2016.
Sebastian Vollmer. Pats RT for years but was hurt this year. Clear Quinn connection. But is 32 and was hurt. Good player when healthy
Mike Remmers. Average player with starting experience for Carolina. Was the guy abused in Super Bowl by Broncos
Matt Kalil and Andre Smith. Former Vikings. Smith was good three years ago with Bengals and both were high picks. Kalil struggled at left tackle other than his rookie year. Both got hurt this year.
Menelik Watson struggled early with Oakland but was average this year and improved.
Ricky Wagner. Add an underrated good year with the Ravens. 19th ranked per PFF. Hasn't done much in prior years. Should be cheaper than Reiff
Byron Bell, Marshall Newhouse(Packers and Giants). Backups at best IMO
William Beatty, oft injured Giant
Gosder Cherilus. LOL no
Eric Winston. 33 but has plenty of starting experience. Average at best
Roll with Corey Robinson and Cornelius Lucas. Super risky Mayhew method. Lucas is a restricted free agent by the way. Who knows how hurt Robinson is after going on IR with foot injury.
