Orlando Brown Jr. will be one of the hottest free agents on the market in the offseason. Where are the five best landing spots for him?

With the 2021 NFL season and Super Bowl in the rearview mirror, all attention now turns towards free agency. No team is infallible or perfect, and free agency presents the perfect opportunity for every team to look to improve their roster for the year ahead. Free agency is littered with high-quality players in 2022, from Davante Adams and Chris Godwin to Terron Armstead and J.C. Jackson.

However, one of the most appealing targets for teams should be Orlando Brown Jr. of the Kansas City Chiefs. After a disastrous Super Bowl performance by the Chiefs offensive line, general manager Brett Veach made a concerted effort to revamp the entire unit, and Brown was an integral part of the renaissance.

5 best places for Orlando Brown to sign in NFL free agency

The Chiefs traded a number of picks, including the 31st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft for Brown, who wanted to slide across the offensive line from right tackle to left tackle. The Ravens were fully invested in Ronnie Stanley as their franchise left tackle, so this trade gave Brown the chance to become a cornerstone left tackle himself.

He finished with a PFF grade of 75.2 in 2021, allowing four sacks and 37 total pressures in the process while finishing tied 20th in pass-blocking efficiency. It was an above-average season for Brown on a very good offensive line, but he’ll be just 26 years old by the time the 2022 season rolls around.

Someone will pay for his services as their franchise left tackle for the next half-decade, but where are the best landing spots?
