Free agent power rankings 2.0: The Post-Trent Williams Edition

The Redskins now have a hole to fill on the offensive line with Trent Williams leaving, so the free agency power ranking has been shaken up.

No. 2 — LT Kelvin Beachum

In a sparse left tackle market, Kelvin Beachum stands out as the most attractive option for a team that just had their seven-time Pro-Bowler left to find a trade. Beachum has been a solid player for the New York Jets for the past three years, and he graded out with an above-average PFF blocking rating in 2019, despite the Jets being far below the midline on the offensive front.

Unlike Trent Williams, Beachum will likely come at a much cheaper number, closer to $10 million per year, rather than the $20 that Williams would have required. Though he is getting a bit past his prime at age 31, it would make sense for the Redskins to try and sign Beachum on a 1-2 year deal while they look to draft a young LT and develop both him and Geron Christain.
