I was just looking at FoxSports, and this dude has a list of some appealing 2006 Free Agents across the NFL.
Some notes:
DT:
Grady Jackson, Packers (Probally not much of a pass rusher, but will eat up blocks on an opposing O-Line. AGE: 32. Might be a little old. Certainly not the player he used to be.)
Chris Hovan, Bucs (Don't know much about him. AGE: 27)
DE:
Darren Howard, Saints (Age: 29. He's gonna be expensive. Good player though.)
John Abraham, Jets (Age: 27. I thought he was older. But I don't know about him. He's gonna be expensive too.)
Kyle Vanden Bosch, Titans (Age: 27. I really like this guy, I see him as a future star in this league. Who knows if the Titans will let him go)
ILB:
No names that I know of.
Safety:
Tank Williams, Titans (AGE: 25. I've heard good things about him. There's probally gonna be a lot of competition for him)
Adam Archuleta, Rams (AGE: 28 soon. Might be good as well)
Ok I'll just cut and paste some stuff now for Offense...
O-Tackle:
The Lions' Jeff Backus (28 years old), Falcons' athletic tackle Kevin Shaffer (25 years old) and New England's Tom Ashworth (28 years old) and Jon Runyan (33 years old) of the Eagles.
I dont think we should sign a Tackle in FA. They are going to be pretty expensive. Maybe Jon Runyan might be cheaper since he's so old. He might not be worth it though.
O-Guard:
One name stands out and that's Steve Hutchinson (28 years old) of the Seahawks. After the strong former first-round pick comes guys like the Pats' Steve Neal (29 years old) and the Bears' Terrance Metcalf (27 years old).
I would love to get Hutchinson, but I doubt TD would spend the money.
Center:
This is highlighted by the Saints' Pro Bowler LeCharles Bentley (26 years old). The Packers' Mike Flanagan (32 years old) is a proven, solid vet but recently had a sports hernia surgery.
I would stay away from Flanagan. I would love to get Bentley though.
WR:
Pitt's Antwan Randle-El (26 years old) is tops on another weak list. Indy's Reggie Wayne (27 years old) and New England's David Givens (25 years old) round out the top three.
I doubt Pittsbrugh lets Randel-El go. Reggie Wayne might be available, but you have to wonder how he would play when a QB not named Manning throws him the ball.
Basically this is just a general list. I would love it if we grabbed LaCharles Bentley from the Saints. We could put Preston at Guard and go from there. I doubt TD would try for Hutchinson, since Hutchinson is gonna be costly. But I would cut Villarial if it meant we could grab Hutchison. The other player I would love to get is Vandan Bosch. He's tearing it up this year. But he'd probally be too expensive as well. He's certainly an upgrade over Denney/Kelsey though.
Hope this helps!
