Interior offensive line free agents the Ravens should consider
With just one game left in the 2025 NFL season, it will soon be full steam ahead for offseason content. After looking at what the Ravens’ offense might look like under Declan Doyle, I’m now going to highlight some interior offensive line free agents who could be good fits based on the team’s needs.
Guards
David Edwards, Buffalo Bills
Edwards is the best option if the Ravens are looking to sign a guard to a multi-year deal, in my opinion. He will be 29 years old when the 2026 NFL season begins and is one of the better pass-blocking offensive linemen in the NFL, allowing just 27 pressures on 679 pass-blocking snaps in 2025. He is also at his best on outside zone runs and could genuinely contend to be the Ravens’ best offensive lineman if he were on the roster in 2026.
Isaac Seumalo, Pittsburgh Steelers
Given that he turns 33 early in the 2026 season, a move for Seumalo would likely be short term, but that does not mean it would be a bad one. Like Edwards, he is a strong pass blocker and is also at his best in outside zone schemes in the running game. He would represent a significant upgrade over Andrew Vorhees at left guard.
Joel Bitonio, Cleveland Browns
Bitonio turns 35 during the 2026 NFL season, so there is some risk that a decline could come quickly. He fits schematically, though, with a similar profile to Edwards and Seumalo in pass protection and on outside zone runs. Another advantage is his potential to mentor Vorhees and Emery Jones Jr. as they continue to develop. Like Seumalo, this would likely be a one-year deal.
Kevin Zeitler, Tennessee Titans
If Zeitler decides he wants to keep playing, there is a strong case for a return to Baltimore on a one-year deal. He will be 36 before the new season begins, but he remains effective in pass protection and as a run blocker and could still be a difference maker for the Ravens up front.
Storyline to watch: Does the Ravens’ incoming coaching staff like Emery Jones Jr. as much as the outgoing group? If not, there is a case for adding two of these players, especially if they decide to let Tyler Linderbaum walk.
Centers
Connor McGovern, Buffalo Bills
To be very clear, anyone the Ravens sign at center would represent a downgrade from Tyler Linderbaum. The question is whether they could save enough money on a solid starter to make that drop-off worthwhile. McGovern will likely command a little more than half of Linderbaum’s projected annual salary while still giving the Ravens a starting-caliber player up front. He is comfortably the second-best center set to hit the open market.
Andre James, Los Angeles Chargers
James flashed promise during an impressive 2023 season but has not come close to matching that level since. He has also dealt with injuries throughout his career, which makes him a risky option to rely on as a 17-game starter.
Ethan Pocic, Cleveland Browns
Pocic fits the outside zone scheme well enough, but his play has dipped over the past two seasons in Cleveland. The reality is that you would be getting an average starter and little beyond that.
Storyline to watch: The harsh reality is that there is not a center on the market who comes close to Linderbaum’s level of play or scheme fit. If he does not return to Baltimore, it will simply be because the team is unwilling to commit what will likely be around $20 million per year.
