Where is Washington among the NFL's top offensive lines?
In Washingtons surprise run to an NFC East championship last season, the Football Team received strong play from their offensive line. Washington had three spots locked up in center Chase Roullier, right guard Brandon Scherff and right tackle Morgan Moses. Geron Christian started the season at left tackle until an injury sidelined him, allowing veteran Cornelius Lucas to move into the starting lineup. Lucas would take over and held down the position quite well. Meanwhile, another veteran free-agent addition, Wes Schweitzer, fortified the left guard position. After the season, Pro Football Focus ranked every offensive line in the NFL, and the WFT ranked No. 6. PFF has Washington right in the middle of the league at No. 16 heading into 2021. This is what PFF had to say about Washingtons offensive line:  Washington signed former Bears tackle Charles Leno, who has graded out at 70.0 or better in four of the past five years. Hes a consistent, mid-level tackle, which is a valuable commodity in the NFL. The Football Team released former starting right tackle Morgan Moses, which potentially puts the position in the hands of second-rounder Samuel Cosmi. Cosmi earned a 90.8 overall grade at Texas last year, but he could also use some time to clean up his pass sets. Cornelius Lucas returns as one of the better swing tackles in the NFL. He recorded a 72.2 overall grade with the Bears on 507 snaps in 2019 before posting a solid 78.9 mark last year on 608 snaps, good for 23rd among tackles. Right guard Brandon Scherff returns on the franchise tag after his 86.3 overall grade ranked fourth among guards in 2020. He has a 97th percentile pass-blocking grade on true pass sets over the past three years, making him a trusted pass protector. Center Chase Roullier has improved in each of his four NFL seasons, and his 76.4 overall grade ranked sixth among centers. Roullier had the third-best pass-blocking grade on true pass sets last season (79.0). At left guard, Wes Schweitzer returns after a career-high 69.0 grade last season, though Washington also traded for Ereck Flowers, who started in for the team in 2019. Flowers has graded between 64.0 and 67.0 in each of the past four years, the last two of which came at guard. Do I think Washington should be higher than No. Perhaps. I understand the hesitation of ranking the WFT inside the top 10 when the team made multiple changes along the offensive line this offseason. Leno should be an upgrade over Lucas at right tackle. Whether it is Cosmi or Lucas at right tackle, Moses isnt irreplaceable. He was good and reliable. Cosmis upside is higher, while Lucas should be solid. At guard, Schweitzer is back and will likely compete with Flowers. The good news for Washington is its anchors, Roullier and Scherff, are back. Injuries aside, Washington should have another strong offensive line in 2021.
