Dallas Cowboys: DT Osa Odighizuwa
Odighizuwa might not be much of a secret anymore after putting together a breakout campaign last year, but he wasn’t named to any postseason teams so still qualifies for our list.
The 2021 third-round pick had an impressive showing as a pass-rusher in 2023. While he only accumulated three sacks, he was consistently in the quarterback’s face with 43 total pressures and an 80.0 pass-rush grade, according to Pro Football Focus.
New York Giants: OL Jermaine Eluemunor
With other offensive linemen signing $20-plus million per year contracts this spring, the Giants got excellent value for Eluemunor, who inked a two-year, $14 million deal.
That will help stabilize the offense’s pass protection issues seeing as the former Raider surrendered fewer than 30 pressures in each of the last two seasons, per PFF.
The 29-year-old also has the versatility to line up at guard or tackle and has been taking snaps on the inside during the early stages of New York’s OTAs, according to the New York Daily News, adding even more value to the team.
Philadelphia Eagles: DT Milton Williams
It’s easy to get lost in the shuffle on the Eagles’ defensive line as that’s been one of the deepest position groups in the NFL over the last several years. So, while Williams might be unheralded, he certainly isn’t underappreciated.
The 25-year-old has been a quality run defender, racking up 18 TFL in three seasons. And while he only registered half a sack last year, he had six with just two starts in the two years prior.
This year could be Williams’ time to shine after Philadelphia lost some defensive linemen in the offseason, including Fletcher Cox.
Washington Commanders: G Sam Cosmi
The Commanders had the second-most sacks allowed (65) in the NFL last season, so it’s understandable why their offensive linemen don’t get much love in the media and when it comes to Pro Bowl voting.
However, Cosmi isn’t the problem as he only gave up one sack in 2023, per PFF. He also earned a good grade as a run-blocker (74.0) and started all 17 games.
