2023 NFL free agency: Predicting where top 50 players will land
49. Bobby Okereke, LB, Indianapolis Colts
Over the last two seasons, Bobby Okereke has racked up nearly 300 tackles with the Indianapolis Colts. Given his ties to Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus from their time together in Indy, that’s a marriage that makes plenty of sense. The Bears traded away Roquan Smith in the 2022 season, so there’s a clear need for them to add some bodies at that position group.
Okereke is familiar with the way Eberflus runs things and would be a nice addition to a team with tons of space to add impact players.
Prediction: Signs with Chicago Bears
50. Jermaine Eluemunor, OT, Las Vegas Raiders
Offensive line play is crucial for success in the NFL. The sky is blue, water is wet. You need good offensive linemen to sustain success in the NFL and the Raiders seem to have uncovered a diamond in the rough with Jermaine Eluemunor this past season.

Especially down the stretch, Eluemunor played well. The Las Vegas Raiders will need to make it a priority to bring him back into the fold in 2023 because the offensive line was one of this team’s weakest areas in 2022 on paper.
Prediction: Re-signs with Raiders
