Obviously this is way up in the air due to the CBA situation, but being an optimist (and bored), I'm assuming everything gets worked out. Never hurts to take a peek and see what could be out there. Found this listing of a Top 30 at:
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slu...eeagents111810 It has it broken down into 6, 5, and 4 yr players. Of note in relation to our beleaguered Texan needs: 6 Yr 5. DL Richard Seymour(notes) – Somebody is going to pay handsomely for the 31-year-old Seymour, who is having a terrific season. He’s really good, but has a tendency to play on cruise control. 6. CB Ike Taylor(notes) – When cornerbacks hit the market, they get paid. That’s just the way it is. Taylor, 30, isn’t great (11 picks in eight seasons), but he’s a good one and he can run. 9. CB Champ Bailey(notes) – Again, cornerbacks get paid and there is little question that Champ Bailey is better than Taylor. However, Bailey is two years older and has had a run of nagging injuries. 5 Yr 1. CB Johnathan Joseph(notes) – Don’t expect a down year by the Bengals defense to impact Joseph’s value. The franchise tag beckons for a guy who can both cover and lay the wood. 2. NT Haloti Ngata(notes) – Pure beast. He’s one of those rare players you look at and say, “How in the world do I attack that?” He also picked a good year to have nearly as many sacks (five in nine games) as he had in his first four years (6.5). 4 Yr 3. CB Eric Wright(notes) – Like Ike Taylor, Wright is a good corner at a time when even the very good become the very rich (See: Robinson, Dunta). Wright has better ball-hawking skills than Taylor, so that will put him at a higher premium. 9. S Eric Weddle(notes) – Some people prefer Dashon Goldson(notes), but Weddle has been more consistent. Probably will never be a star, but he’s the glue of a defense. 10. S Dashon Goldson – Has flashed ball-hawking skills and is considered very bright. |
