QB: Colin Kaepernick:
Kap is still only a few years removed of his elite seasons. The Seahawks are reportedly interested in their teams former rival QB. Kap has shown flashes of greatness in the last year and could be a quality backup at this stage in free agency.
RB: LeGarrette Blount: (UPDATE: BLOUNT SIGNED A 1 YEAR DEAL WITH THE EAGLES)
Blount is only ONE year removed from LEADING the NFL in TOUCHDOWNS! 18 TDs is a lot of TDs, especially for an RB that is still somehow a free agent. Blount will likely either sign with the Giants or the Patriots.WR: Victor Cruz:
Cruz can still ball. Despite playing a WR3 role in New York last season, Cruz still managed 500+ receiving yards. It could have been 1000 had he had a bigger role in the offense. Apparently Cruz is not close to done playing and just really really wants to play anywhere. He has a lot of visits with teams coming soon.
WR: Anaquan Boldin:
Boldin is old, but he looked like he could really ball last season. The Lions used him well and I think if he can get another great role like he did in Detroit maybe he will show out again. This could be a great signing in the end.
TE: Gary Barnidge:
Another recently removed situation, Barnidge is one year removed from a season where he was considered an elite tight end in football and actually gave the Browns a great reliable target. If Barnidge was as good this past season, he would be headed back to the Browns.
BEST O-LINEMAN: Nick Mangold, C:
The former Jets star center Nick Mangold could end up being a steal on the market. An O-line needy team may pony up a deal for Nick and he could maybe become elite again at his position. This could be fun.
DE: Jared Odrick:
Odrick is still young which is what makes him an intriguing player at the position. Odrick has great potential and I think he has a shot at becoming a top D-lineman on the team he goes to.
DT: Vince Wilfork:
I would sign him in a heartbeat. Maybe a future hall of famer, Wilfork is a legendary player and would just be a fun player to have in the locker room. I would sign.
LB: DeAndre Levy:
Levy a few years back was considered elite at his position...WHAT HAPPENED? Age is the obvious answer but still only 30 years old, Levy still has a lot of football left in him. He deserves to be signed.
LB: Dwight Freeney:
Freeney is old but I am a big fan of him. He is a super great person to have in the locker room, the potential future hall of famer may not be the most effective on the field but he is great to have around young learning players. Did you see his positive impact on a young Falcons D last season?
CB: Tramaine Brock:
Brock is still young at corner and I think he could become elite. He could likely become a starter fast because he has some good skills. He is the best corner on the market.
CB: Darrelle Revis:
Revis may be old and washed up, but he is a future hall of famer that many teams would likely want to have. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't get signed and retires but I also wouldn't be surprised if he got signed.
S: Isa Abdul-Quddus:Quite a name but he is also quite a safety. Quddus is still young and he was actually decent last year for the Dolphins. I think Quddus could honestly step in as a starting safety for any team.
K: Dan Carpenter:Carpenter is one of the few free agent kickers still left and he is the only one with experience and could play.
P: Brock Miller:
I've never heard of Miller until I realized he is the only punter left in free agency. I don't even know if he can really play...
Thanks for reading about this team of free agents.
