Those are my/YourNFLfix's Pre-2008 FA Rankings, its still a work in process.

 

its a sad day in the world of offensive tackles when max starks tops a list

 

Looks pretty good to me, though most of those people won't actually be there by the time free agency rolls around

 

Yea they won't be but anyways i think max starks is that high because of his size that guy is huge hes like 6'7" i think im not sure though.

 

Packers only had Morency on this list. I guess he will not make the roster in 2008. Grant did a great job and Wynn will stay at GB too. Jackson is questionable

 

Yeah, Karlos Dansby will be back also, he'll be resigned before the year is over. If we let him go to FA, I'll be getting life for murdering Rod Graves.

 

Yeah like P16 said, alot of these guys will be re-signed or i expect them to re-sign, like Dansby, maybe Suggs, Derek Anderson.

But none the less there are some good FA's available.

ANd there are a lot of teams with a good amount of cap room.

here is a look at commted salaries, this is from earlier in the season, got this from AdamJT16(or something like that) from the KFFL Message Boards.

2008 CAP COMMITMENT

(with number of players under contract in parentheses)

Tennessee (34) $71.842 million
San Diego (44) $79.729 million
Buffalo (44) $81.177 million
Cincinnati (44) $81.268 million
Jacksonville (42) $82.263 million
San Francisco (46) $83.472 million
New Orleans (37) $84.076 million
Arizona (36) $86.531 million
Dallas (40) $88.593 million
Miami (40) $88.622 million
N.Y. Giants (46) $89.156 million
Oakland (40) $90.133 million
Cleveland (41) $90.306 million
Houston (38) $90.951 million
Detroit (40) $91.488 million
Tampa Bay (47) $92.869 million
Kansas City (43) $94.132 million
Green Bay (47) $94.506 million
Chicago (49) $94.857 million
Pittsburgh (39) $95.017 million
Denver (41) $95.279 million
Minnesota (45) $95.794 million
Philadelphia (48) $96.051 million
N.Y. Jets (43) $98.231 million
Seattle (41) $102.206 million
St. Louis (38) $103.059 million
Indianapolis (42) $104.561 million
New England (42) $105.131 million
Atlanta (47) $108.861 million
Carolina (34) $109.899 million
Baltimore (42) $110.014 million
Washington (45) $136.270 million

I also expect a good number of these FA's to be franchised, like Suggs, Samuel, etc...

Unlike past years Tackle isnt a great list this year, the biggest name is Max Starks. Not many franchise LT's out there, heck i dont see one out there that deserves 35m+ over 6 years.

 

Tony Romo already signed an extension with the Cowboys, so you can take him off the list. Other than that, it looks nice.

 

There's some very good players that will be available...hopefully Miami targets a few of these guys like Bryant Johnson, Jared Allen since they actually have some money to spend for a change. Johnson has the possibility of being a #1 WR if he gets out from behind Boldin and Fitzgerald. The quality of the defensive free agents looks very strong!

 

Didnt Mike Alstott retire?

 

An AB83 sighting, oh my grandersonz!!! And at GIF to boot!! What is the world coming to?? You abandoned us at ninercaphell AB, why :(?

 

Hey Walnuts, been busy with everything, im mostly on at 49ersinfo and my own message board.

 

So, are you assuming Bob Sanders and Dallas Clark resign with the Colts, or just did you just not know they were potential upcoming FAs?

 

wowsa, i had no clue they were potential FA's. That would definately make them at the top of the list of Avilable FA's by Position.

 

What is the cap supposed to be around for next season?

 

I beleive its suppose to be around $116m next season.

 

So basically the Redskins are hecked again?

 

pretty much, they have like 130m in commited salaries for next year.

 

I would like Briggs at New England.

 

I would like to see a widereciever like randy moss in philly next year and a cornerback like asante samuels in philly next year but it definetly won't happen but a man can dream can't he.
