PFF ranks Gunner Britton as one of the best returning offensive linemen in the SEC

[autotag]Hugh Freeze[/autotag] has done a great job flipping Auburn’s roster ahead of his first season on the Plains and perhaps the position where he has done the most work is along the offensive line, where the Tigers have landed nine newcomers this offseason.

One of the biggest additions is transfer offensive tackle [autotag]Gunner Britton[/autotag], who spent the past five seasons at Western Kentucky. He started 14 games for the Hilltoppers last season and is poised to be the Tigers starting right tackle for the 2023 season.

The 6-foot-6, 305-pounder was one of the top players in the transfer portal and PFF has him graded as one of the top returning offensive linemen in the SEC, his grade of 78.6 is the fourth highest among returning players.

He is one of four transfers Auburn has landed along the offensive line and all have a good shot at starting. With Britton anchoring the right tackle spot, [autotag]Dillon Wade[/autotag] (Tusla) is expected to start at left tackle with [autotag]Avery Jones[/autotag] (ECU) playing enter and [autotag]Jaden Muskrat[/autotag] (Tulsa) battling for one of the guard spots.
