While the quarterback is the most important position in the NFL, their sustained success relies heavily on the offensive line. The best NFL offensive lines right now are largely leading the way for some of the league’s best offenses.
Let’s dive into our rankings of the 10 best offensive lines in the NFL entering the 2025 season.
The Philadelphia Eagles have the best offensive line in the NFL. In 2024, they gave up just 110 pressures (7th fewest) and 32 QB hits (5th fewest), excelling in both pass protection and run blocking. Philadelphia ranked 6th in ESPN’s pass-block win rate (67%) and 9th in run-block win rate (72%). This offensive line is a cornerstone of what makes the Eagles’ offense so dangerous. Philadelphia will also have continuity on the offensive line in 2025, with four returning starters and Mekhi Becton’s replacement (Tyler Sheen) being an internal promotion. Plus, the Eagles have the added benefit of employing the best offensive line coach in the NFL.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers showed significant improvement from one year to the next. In 2023, they allowed 40 sacks while ranking 12th in ESPN’s pass-block win rate (61%). Tristan Wirfs transitioned smoothly to left tackle, rookie Graham Barton held his own, and Cody Mauch had a breakout year. Their progress in the trenches also fueled a dramatic turnaround in the ground game, going from 3.4 yards per carry (ypc) and 88.8 rushing yards per game (ypg) to 5.3 ypc and 149.2 rush ypg in just one season. Best of all, this is a young offensive line with plenty of room for further growth.

Plenty of the focus for the Denver Broncos‘ improvement in 2024 centered on quarterback Bo Nix, but it’s crucial to appreciate how well the Broncos’ offensive line dominated last season. Denver finished first in ESPN’s pass-block win rate (74%) and run-block win rate (75%). They also allowed the second-lowest pressure rate (15.8%) with the second-best average time to throw (2.5 seconds). This marks a great improvement compared to 2023 (25.2% pressure rate). It’s a testament to the strength of this front. If center Luke Wattenberg can take a step forward, the Buccaneers’ offensive line could become the best in football.
If not for the retirement of All-Pro center Frank Ragnow, the Detroit Lions would likely rank even higher among the best offensive lines in the NFL. It’s a testament to the skill of offensive line coach Hank Fraley that, despite having two projected first-year starters (Christian Mahogany and Tate Ratledge), this line should still be a top-tier unit. Having two standout pillars at offensive tackle certainly helps, and there’s also depth, with Graham Glasgow capable of starting at both guard and center. While the addition of two new starters...
