As a feature in the 2025 Sharp Football Preview Book, the Sharp Football Analysis team ranked positional units across the league for the 2025 season.

The ranking guidelines were specific to the voter, with the only requirement that the focus be on the upcoming season only, not the future outlook.

With a combination of numbers, film, and projections, the rankings were averaged for quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers/tight ends, offensive line, defensive front seven, defensive secondary, and head coach.

Next up: 2025 NFL offensive line rankings.

Score based on average ranks of positional unit (on a 100-point scale) for all 32 teams, from Sharp Football staff voters. If all voters had a team at #1, that score would be 100.

What team has the best offensive line in the NFL?

32. Houston Texans

Swapping out Laremy Tunsil for Cam Robinson isn’t going to help an already struggling offensive line. Though there is some hope for the future, as second-round pick Aireontae Ersery could push Robinson for that job. The offensive line didn’t receive any votes higher than 29th.

31. Cincinnati Bengals

Cincinnati’s patchwork offensive line ranked no higher than 28th on any ballot. Guards Cordell Volson and Alex Cappa ranked 97th and 98th out of 103 interior linemen in pressure rate allowed last year. Free agent addition Lucas Patrick and rookie Dylan Fairchild will try to take over and upgrade those spots.

30. Seattle Seahawks

The offensive line has a tough assignment given Sam Darnold’s struggles against pressure, but they finished toward the bottom of our rankings again, ranking 30th this year. Geno Smith got rid of the ball at the fourth-quickest rate in the NFL and was still pressured on 38.5 percent of his dropbacks last season.

29. New York Giants

Along the offensive line, the Giants have moved out of the last spot in our rankings up to 29. LT Andrew Thomas was limited to just six games in 2024 and has yet to follow up on his outstanding 2022 season.

28. Miami Dolphins

The additions of James Daniels and rookie Jonah Savaiinaea might help, but major improvements are needed on the offensive line. Miami running backs were contacted at or behind the line of scrimmage on 50% of their carries last year, the league’s sixth-highest mark.

27. New England Patriots

The offensive line allowed pressure in 2.5 seconds or less on 28% of dropbacks last year, ranked dead last. First-round pick Will Campbell will try to stabilize the unit at left tackle, but that’s a lot to ask of a 21-year-old rookie.

26. Pittsburgh Steelers

Pittsburgh’s offensive line allowed pressure in 2.5 seconds or less on 25% of dropbacks last year, ranked 27th. Yet, the only change to the unit was letting left tackle Dan Moore Jr. walk in free agency. Broderick Jones allowed pressure on 7.7% of his snaps in pass protection at right tackle, ranked 29th out of 34 qualified players at the position 一 and apparently that earned him the left tackle job?

25. Jacksonville Jaguars

It mostly went unnoticed as the team was long out of contention, but Walker Little thrived as Cam Robinson’s replacement at left tackle in the second half of last year. Little’s 4.0% pressure rate allowed ranked sixth out of 32 left tackles. If he replicates that production, we’ve probably underrated Jacksonville’s offensive line.

22. Cleveland Browns

The Browns used 11 different offensive line combinations for at least 20 snaps last year 一 it’s tough for a unit to be competitive with that type of constant turnover. Jedrick Wills Jr. is gone, and Dawand Jones should get the first crack at taking his left tackle job, but otherwise the unit returns intact and, hopefully, healthy.

22. Las Vegas Raiders

Las Vegas made the questionable decision to leave the offensive line mostly untouched this offseason. The only additions were free agent Alex Cappa and rookie Caleb Rogers, who will likely compete for a starting spot on the interior. Right tackle DJ Glaze is the big question mark. His 8.3% pressure rate allowed ranked 30th out of 34 players at the position.

22. New Orleans Saints

The offensive line is the only Saints unit to move up in this year’s rankings, jumping from 23 to 22. Kelvin Banks Jr. was drafted in the first round this year, and he should get a shot to be the starting left tackle from the jump.

21. Indianapolis Colts

Indy made the surprising choice to leave the offensive line untouched this offseason despite high profile departures, betting on the development of 2024 draft picks Tanor Bortolini and Matt Goncalves. Colts running backs found limited open lanes last year, gaining three or more yards before contact on 21% of attempts, ranked 21st.

20. Carolina Panthers

After years of turnover, Carolina finally has some stability on the offensive line, although they still finished 20th in our rankings. The Panthers have all five starters from last year returning in 2025.

19. Tennessee Titans

The Titans hope some reshuffling of the offensive line after the additions of veterans Dan Moore Jr. and Kevin Zeitler revives a struggling unit. Titans running backs were contacted at or behind the line of scrimmage on 51% of carries, ranked 30th.

18. Kansas City Chiefs

There’s a wide range of potential outcomes for the offensive line in 2025, and Andy Heck certainly has his work cut out for him trying to piece together a new left side of the unit. If rookie Josh Simmons gets healthy, everything could quickly fall into place. But there’s also a scenario where he doesn’t return to full strength, Jaylon Moore and Kingsley Suamataia struggle, and the entire unit falls apart.

17. New York Jets

The offensive line allowed pressure in 2.5 seconds or less on just 19.7% of dropbacks last year, the league’s sixth-lowest rate. If rookie Armand Membou is an asset at right tackle, this unit has the potential to develop into one of the league’s best units.

16. Dallas Cowboys

The offensive line was one of our biggest movers, jumping from 28th last year all the way up to 16th in 2025. Dallas has spent first round picks on offensive linemen in three out of the last four drafts, including this year’s selection of Tyler Booker.

15. San Francisco 49ers

San Francisco’s offensive line is the only 49ers unit to move up in this year’s rankings, jumping from 16 to 15. Trent Williams remains an elite left tackle, but he was limited to just 10 games due to injury.

14. Washington Commanders

The offensive line was the Commanders' top priority this offseason, and they added Laremy Tunsil to play left tackle. Jayden Daniels was pressured on the third-most dropbacks in the NFL last season.

13. Los Angeles Rams

The offensive line finished 13th in our rankings for the second consecutive year, earning one top 10 vote in the process. The biggest question facing the Rams is the health of left tackle Alaric Jackson, who is being treated for blood clots in his leg three months after signing an extension.

12. Arizona Cardinals

Arizona’s offensive line was their biggest mover of this year’s voting, jumping from 31 last year all the way up to 12. The Cardinals will return almost all of their contributors from 2024.

10. Chicago Bears

Chicago added a ton of resources to their offensive line this offseason, bumping them into the top 10 of this year’s rankings. Joe Thuney, Drew Dalman, and Jonah Jackson are all expected to be new starters on the interior between Braxton Jones and Darnell Wright.

10. Green Bay Packers

The Green Bay offensive line also dropped a couple of spots this year, but they still finished 10th in our rankings. Aaron Banks was added from the 49ers in free agency to take over at left guard.

9. Buffalo Bills

Buffalo’s offensive line returns intact and cracked the top 10, but Josh Allen would benefit from improved pass protection. The Bills allowed pressure in 2.5 seconds or less on 23% of dropbacks last year, ranked 18th.

8. Baltimore Ravens

Baltimore’s offensive line returns mostly intact, except for the loss of left guard Patrick Mekari. For the unit to reach another level of production, second-year right tackle Roger Rosengarten must elevate his play. He ranked 26th out of 34 qualified right tackles in pressure rate allowed in 2024.

7. Atlanta Falcons

Atlanta’s offensive line lost Drew Dalman in free agency, and they dropped from second to seventh in this year’s voting. Ryan Neuzil did get eight stats last year filling in for an injured Dalman, so it should be a smooth transition.

6. Los Angeles Chargers

The offensive line returns the entire unit, though Mekhi Becton likely steps in as a starter over Trey Pipkins. As a rookie, Joe Alt ranked 10th out of 34 qualified right tackles in pressure rate allowed. If he elevates that production even further, this could turn into an elite unit.

5. Minnesota Vikings

The offensive line was another top five unit this year, moving up four spots in our rankings from last year. Minnesota should feature three new starters on the interior of their line after spending a first-round pick on Donovan Jackson and signing Ryan Kelly and Will Fries in free agency.

4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The offensive line also jumped into the top five this year, skyrocketing from the 19th slot a year ago. Tristan Wirfs has emerged as one of the best left tackles in football, though he will miss the first few weeks of the season after undergoing knee surgery.

3. Detroit Lions

Detroit’s offensive line fell two spots in this year’s rankings from first to third, partly due to center Frank Ragnow’s surprising retirement announcement. The Lions also lost starting guard Kevin Zeitler in free agency. Graham Glasgow has been a starting interior lineman for a decade, but he hasn’t played center full time since 2018. Rookie second-round pick Tate Ratledge will also be counted on to step up, likely getting the first crack at the center job. On the bright side, the Lions still have a pair of Pro Bowl tackles on the outside.

2. Denver Broncos

The offensive line landed in the top four on every ballot and should be the unit that holds together an otherwise talent-limited offense. Garett Bolles anchors the unit at left tackle. He ranked third at his position in pressure rate allowed last season.

1. Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia topped our offensive line rankings this year thanks to Jordan Mailata and Lane Johnson combining to allow just three sacks in over 2,200 snaps. The lone question mark is at right guard, where former third-round pick Tyler Steen will get first crack to replace Mekhi Becton.
