The Cleveland Browns have a lot of needs this offseason. Name a position group, and additional players are wanted to come in and fill open jobs, especially on offense. Browns GM Andrew Berry has his hands full this year with free agency and the NFL draft in April.
March 9 begins the free agency period.

One of the most glaring position groups is the offensive line. The Browns’ 2026 free agent list is full of Cleveland starters and depth pieces.
RG Wyatt Teller has already said his goodbyes to the fanbase. LG Joel Bitonio could retire. RT Jack Conklin is always injured. LT Cam Robinson didn’t work out in a trade. C Ethan Pocic should have already been offered an extension just like Teller, but surprisingly was not. OG Teven Jenkins needs to be inked to a new deal.
OT Dawand Jones is the lone starter remaining, and he has been injured three times out of three years but seems a part of the team’s plan. Other offensive linemen under contract are centers Kingsley Eguakun, Kendrick Green, Justin Osborne, and Luke Wypler, guard Zak Zinter, and tackles Jeremiah Byers and KT Leveston.
Cleveland’s offensive line was ranked #31 last year. Every starter except for Bitonio was injured at one point or another. The Browns limped along with backups and practice squad guys. Both starting tackles ended up on IR.
Something has to be done for this upcoming season.
The Browns will go into the 2026 NFL season with a completely new offensive line that might be rebuilt at most positions and key backup roles.
OT Rasheed Walker
Green Bay Packers
NFL draft: 2022 Round 7, pick #249 (Packers)
PFF ranking: 64.6
Accolades: Two-time Third Team All-Big 10 (2020, 2021)
2025 season: 16 starts, 988 offensive snaps (94%)
Walker is a former defensive lineman, so he has that brute mentality. He has plenty of upside and is still a young man at age 26, so he has plenty of football left in his system. He is durable having played in every game for the past three seasons with 52 NFL games played and 48 starts.
He is quick out of his stance and has improved footwork. His agility allows him good leverage. He is able to get to the second level when adjusting to moving defenders.
He is one of those great stories. Walker was taken in Round 7 and built a reputation as a stable offensive tackle. He went from swing tackle to three-year starter. He’s consistent and experienced enough.
Who the quarterback for the Browns is going forward is still unknown. But whoever it is, they will need quality bodies up front for protection. Walker is the top offensive tackle on the free agent market this year and would become plug-and-play from Week 1.
Walker is a big-time tackle. He can cover a lot of ground. He does not get bull rushed and has the feet to adjust when he anticipates what’s coming. Elite core strength. 70.0 PFF pass blocking grade with nine penalties and five sacks allowed in 2025.
He has above-average body control but will fire off the snap. Walker has a bad habit of lunging and will give up pressures.
Walker is an impressive athlete and has all the tools for the blindside tackle position. He seems to have peaked this past season, which will allow him to find a team that needs good help.
This is a really good target for new head coach Todd Monken, who is installing a new offense. Walker made $3.4 million last year and is now in line for a good payday.
