2018 version:
DL
Robert Quinn, Leonard Floyd as position change candidates.
Derek Barnett and Charles Harris as increased usage/snap count/improvement guys.
Emmanuel Ogbah - from the "non-IR leagues" that may have forgotten about him.
Frank Clark - the talent is there, the snaps haven't been in part because of some old dudes in front of him. They may not be next year.
Aaron Lynch - UFA and likely to leave SFO with all the early picks they have used at the position. Spent 3 years miscast at 3-4 LB so we haven't seen what he's got yet.
Tak McKinley - can't imagine he's available in many deeper leagues, but in shallower leagues with no taxi he might be on the wire.
Ezekiel Ansah - could someone have given up on waiting in shallower leagues?
Deatrich Wise - hard to count on a NEP, and tougher given Flowers' emergence, but he's playing quite a bit as a rookie, may step it up
Derek Rivers - ditto, but actually drafted higher than Wise and NEP aren't exactly patient with role players - maybe one of these guys gets cut loose?
Tank Carradine - he's been hurt and he's a UFA next year - this guy was a specimen in college and might get a second life elsewhere?
Kony Ealy - miscast in NYJ 3-4 and only 25 years old. Pray he goes to a 4-3 team with a need like TBB
Marcus Smith - spent 3 years lost in 3-4, bit player in SEA this year. 1st round talent.
Jeremiah Attaochu - 24 years old. Free Agent. miscast at 3-4 for 3 years. Hurt this year. Behind Ingram and Bosa Pick your reasons why he could explode.
LB
Anthony Hitchens - UFA and only 25. Productive occasionally.
Corey Nelson/Tod Davis - both are UFA and they share time in DEN right now behind Marshall.
Kevin Pierre-Louis - behind two stud horses for 3 years in SEA, and now playing 3-4 OLB. Put him in the middle somewhere please.
Jayon Brown - Avery WIlliamson is a UFA so maybe he goes elsewhere and creates a huge opportunity
Avery WIlliamson - UFA so may end up in a lot more productive spot
Kendall Beckwith - less a breakout, more a "must have handcuff". Ultra-productive when either Kwon or David was out.
Raekwon McMillan - that position has production available, will they bring back Timmons? Will he cry his way back to PIT?
Danny Trevathan - people may have bailed on his injury history, but I'm stashing that guy for the 5 games he is going to play, because they are beastly when he does.
Nick Kwiatkowski - he's probably worth putting back on this list depending on league size. People may have moved on from him too.
Hayes Pullard - shined when he got his chance and kept the formerly ultra-productive Jatavis Brown on limited snap counts. Graded well pre-draft in '16 too.
Jordan Hicks - another from the "forgotten about on IR" list
Craig Robertson - he keeps getting the JAG treatment but he keeps producing big numbers when he gets snaps.
Jerrell Freeman - so many strikes, but so, so many tackles when he plays.
Kevin Minter - stuck behind healthy guys playing better than he is, but he's on a 1 year deal and could end up elsewhere - Jon Bostic potential here to be a fill-in LB2 for a year.
Christian Jones - so many Bears. But again, producing like a beast when he's in. Can they all be this good or is it just the position? I'll spend a buck to find out.
DB
I don't bother with DB's, the only ones worth stashing are not going to be readily available and too much can change before they get a chance to pay out. August is the time to fill DB.
