Dream signing: Mitchell Schwartz, RT, Cleveland Browns
Realistic signing: None – sticking with Austin Howard
Mitchell Schwartz is about as consistent as it gets for a right tackle. For three seasons in a row, he’s been a steady, valuable presence on the right side of Cleveland’s offensive line. He’ll only be 27 in June.
Many Raiders fans won’t like this one, but the realistic option is sticking with Austin Howard at right tackle. If Oakland wanted to release Howard, that would have happened by now. Truth be told, he wasn’t all that bad the second half of the season.
