FREE AGENTS (1 Viewer)

I read somewhere that Stephen Tulloch is a free agent this year. Are there any other studs possibly changing teams? Who are the cream of this years free agent crop?

Lots of notables (though this is from a list at FootballsFuture.com and may include some players that have already signed or may be RFA). Many owners have said that they'll not consider signing any free agents, including their own, until the CBA issue is resolved. Could be a bumpy ride that burns itself out quickly in February and March or drags on through the summer.

And don't forget the cream of the defensive crop, Nmandi Asomugha.

While not the greatest fantasy IDP player, he is definitely the best RL DB free agent out there...

Should be interesting to see how injured players like Kiwanuka and D'Qwell are courted in free agency. Neither is old but both are coming off season ending injuries. Jackson has more of an injury history having been IR'd 2 seasons in a row but Kiwanuka's neck injury is the type that can't really ever be ignored.

Giants' Perry Fewell is on record as a big fan of Kiwi but if another team offers a fat contract I'm not sure that the Giants would reciprocate.

I made a point to pick up Kiwi in dynasty leagues. I don't see how there wouldn't be at least one team that won't offer a big deal. I doubt the Giants will rationalize spending big money for a rotational DE, and I am praying a 4-3 team signs him for big money to be that linchpin RE.

Seems Kiwi would fit well in St. Louis since Spags is familiar with him.
