Athletic's Top 50 Free Agents

[football karma]

paywall, so you know, the usual caveats about why im not posting the whole thing:

2021 NFL Free Agency Rankings: Top 50, from Dak on down – The Athletic

First: the Cardinals on the list:

17. Hassan Reddick
45. Patrick Peterson

no Golden, no Drake, etc

on Reddick, interesting that at 17, there are still 6 edge guys ahead of him--

7. Ngakoue / Vikes
11. Judon / Ravens
12. Barrett / Bucs
13. Dupree / Steelers
15 Hendrickson / Saints
16 Lawson / Bengals

so supply might help the Cards out here in getting him resigned

I would love that offseason. Unfortunately I think you’re way low on a lot of those contracts.

Yes...it is a thick EDGE FA class as well as a draft class. I think 10 per year gets it done easy with REddick/

 

[Southpaw]

Go after Hendrickson. The Saints drafted Davenport to hold down that spot and he has been mediocre at best. Trey put together one helluva year when finally given the chance, but remember he plays opposite Cam Jordan. Who do Saints want to pay?

Big no on Ngakoue / Vikes

Big no on Ngakoue / Vikes

Saints run a 4-3, and Hendrickson is really a 4-3 DE

I think, like most aspiring teams, our offseason starts with re-signing players.
Reddick
Peters
Blackson
Golden

After that, we have some RFAs that I am sure we will re-sign.
Gardeck
Arnold
Turner
Sherfield
Fitts

and from there we have tough business decisions
Fitzgerald
Peterson
Drake
Beachum

Some under the radar guys I like (at least per the list)
Jacoby Brissett - QB
Marcus Williams - S (favorite S if we don't want to bank on Jalen)
Larry Ogunjobi - DT (actually my favorite DT in this class)

Top Targets
Brandon Sherff - OG
Corey Linsley / Ted Karras - C

Dart Throws
Breshad Perriman - WR
John Ross - WR
Jarrad Davis - ILB

Although I would love to see Golladay in Cardinal red I think the team should look to sign Marvin Jones Jr. as he would cost less and being paired with Hopkins would make him quite productive as well as a deep threat.
