Yeah a lot of expected turnover on offense. My question is what's your preference to bring in an experienced o-linemen? Guard or Tackle? Personally I'd rather an experienced Guard. Someone who has grown into their man-body and can get out in space and be a mauler. Although I can see the merit in getting a true anchor to solidify the blindside.
The tackles who are good NFL starters are rarely going to hit free agency because they're such a rare commodity. Teams would rather franchise tag a guy like that. You're mostly looking at lower tier starters and swing tackles. Sometimes a backup who showed something with an opportunity and his team can't afford to keep him around. I think you're more likely to snag a good guard in free agency.
At either position, they may be limited to guys who are third contract players who no longer command a high salary. Even if they just find a few decent starting linemen in free agency to act as 1-2 year bridge players, it would keep the Browns from reaching too much in the draft because there's so much need.
