T Garett Bolles, Denver Broncos

The most expensive option on the list, but still significantly less expensive than Trent Williams, is Denver Broncos’ left tackle Garett Bolles. A first round pick of the Broncos just two years ago, the third year tackle has not developed quite as well as Denver may have expected a first rounder to.

Given that he is just in his third season, a third rounder is more than likely the minimum investment it will take for the Browns to get Bolles. However with Bradley Chubb down for the year in Denver, you have to wonder if offering Genard Avery, who the Browns refuse to play, may allow for a less significant draft asset to get the deal done as well.

A younger, more promising option than either Robinson and Hubbard, Bolles could be placed into the hands of one of the best offensive line coaches in the league in James Campen, and be developed into the left tackle that the Broncos hoped he would be. At 6-5 and 300 pounds, Bolles has length necessary to play tackle in the NFL, and has never missed a start in his career.

Availability is often times the best asset to teams, and Bolles is just that. Robinson and Hubbard have been too for the most part, but they are just not getting the job done for the Browns. Bolles is the among the youngest on this list, but would also cost the most to obtain.
