Matt Feiler

Who, you may be asking, is Matt Feiler? He might just be the most underrated right tackle on the market. He’s a 6-foot-6, 330-pound tackle who finished 2019 with a 75.2 PFF grade – the fifth-highest grade among all right tackles. The 27-year-old became one of the best pass-blockers in the league after he started all 16 games for the Steelers this season. Feiler ranked third in pass-protection behind only Ryan Ramczyk and Mitchell Schwartz – two of the best in the league.

The Steelers always produce a great offensive line, and 2019 was no exception. Feiler was part of the unit that allowed the ninth-fewest sacks in the league for a Steelers team somehow within a few games of the playoffs despite losing most of their offensive weapons like Ben Roethlisberger, Le’Veon Bell and Antonio Brown.

Feiler has been durable over the past two seasons, but the worry with him is experience and consistency. He went undrafted out of Division II Bloomberg University in 2014 and spent his first four seasons on the practice squad for the Texans and Steelers before starting nine of the Steelers’ last 10 games in 2018.  He’d be a risky signing but could be a cheaper option for the Jets if they whiff on or are unwilling to pay the top-tier tackles like Conklin and Bulaga.
