DEFENSIVE END

A couple of potential big names to hit the market at the DE position. Chris Jones has had a phenomenal first 4 years in the league and is one of the best young interior defensive linemen in the league. He’ll have a lot of interest on the open market. Zettel looks to cash in on his pass rushing ability and Graham will bring a strong veteran presence to whatever team is lucky enough to sign him.

DEFENSIVE TACKLE

The DT list is awfully short this season and the top two guys are both from the same team. It’s unlikely the Saints let both players walk, so this list becomes even shorter if only one of them hits the market. Look for Maliek Collins to get a shot at a starting position, he’s still young enough to develop and showed flashes in Dallas.

LINEBACKER

Campbell and Leonard Floyd will both get a lot of attention this offseason. The rest of this list is a mix of veteran and young role players. It’s important to note that Danny Trevathan is the only true MLB on the market, so he may stumble his way into a hefty contract if a team is desperate for a solid MLB.

CORNERBACK

The Titans may lose both their starting CBs in free agency in Logan Ryan and Patrick Robinson. They turned solid enough years for teams to be willing to give them a multi year deal in order to lock up their services, despite their age. Tavon Young has struggled at times, but has shown enough for a team out there to be willing to give him big money to bolster their secondary.

SAFETY

Neal and Byard could be huge additions to any team in the league. They’re studs at their positions and they’re just now hitting their prime. Weddle and Jenkins are up their in age, but with a weak FA class they stand the chance to cash in for one more year. Kindred will also get looks from multiple teams.
