T.J. Lang, offensive guard
An interior lineman who excels in pass protection, Lang is one of the NFL’s top guards and is a perfect fit for any team featuring a top-flight quarterback. Kind of like the one he actually has played for the past eight years, the Green Bay Packers.
Lang has stated he wants to return to the Packers, but the franchise has yet to reach out to him about re-signing this spring.

Originally a fourth-round pick out of East Michigan, he wasn’t making much his first three years in the league. Then the Packers gave him a four-year extension worth $20.8 million in 2012. He’s only gotten better since then and stands to make more per year than he did on that deal.
If the Packers feel that moving on is in their best interest, then Lang will have no problem signing with another team.
