List of Free Agents 2007

[black19]

I'm trying to compile a list of players who will be free agents this year so we can track their progress during the 'business' season and have general conversation and debate regarding what develops.

First of all, I'm trying to compile a list of players who actually 'matter' and second of all, if I'm missing someone, please say so and I can add them to the list! Third of all, if you feel I didn't list someone who you think 'matters' state your case and and we can work something out.

My own personal list of "guys who could make an impact at a relative value". Also, a few predictions of where guys will end up. I only did offensive players, because offense presents more tangible needs with a language associated than defense.

Matt Schaub- I think Schaub needs to be in the right system. There are very few teams who will be likely to give up the likely compensation the Falcons will ask for. Teams will need a combination of QB need, and a late enough pick to have little reason to believe they could garner one of the top rookies.

Prediction- Kansas City.



Correll Buckhalter- This oft-injured back needs to find some stability, and carries to succeed. I imagine his pricetag will be alot less steep than other runningbacks. I think a great fit for him would be in Denver, where he would be falling into an offense very similar to the one in Philadelphia, however more run heavy.

Prediction- Denver, NY Giants, NY Jets, Green Bay




Ernest Wilford- Could be a redzone threat, or possession guy on a team with an already good receiver to put accross from him, preferably one with an opposing skill-set.

Prediction- Carolina, Dallas, Tennessee, Houston




Daniel Graham- I feel that Daniel Graham is the most under-rated TE in the NFL. Coming out of Colorado in a draft which saw three tight ends taken in the 1st round, he was considered the worst receiving threat of the three (Jeremy Shockey and Jerramy Stevens the other two), and has lived up to his billing. However, in Corey Dillons 1st year with the Patriots, he averaged more yards per carry than any season outside of his rookie season. His averages were significantly higher in games which Graham was healthy. Averages don't mean every thing, but niether do TE receptions.

Prediction- Denver, Cincinatti, Buffalo, Seattle, Cincinatti

Wow, I did miss some key guys, I actually had Garcia, Rhodes, and Stallworth on my list at first but I had a comp crash on my first attempt to post and left them out on the second try. I'll be adding many of those guys to the list soon as I can find out their respective free agent designations. Keith Lewis signed a 3 year extension I think but I will double check and I didn't foget Sands, I chose not to include him on the list. :P

[black19]

-I'm pretty sure Moulds signed a deal with the Texans that was 3 or 4 years. I'm pretty sure he isn't a FA

[black19]

Ok so I've updated the list again.
