Nice article on all of the available free agents with comments. Here's a little excerpt.

Antonio Gates (37), Chargers

Watching him run these days is not unlike watching frozen honey leave that plastic bear-shaped bottle, but remember: Defenders must react to his tempo. They all can, but not all of them can handle his savvy, nuanced mechanics.

Some very interesting names. Attouchu and Brent Urban were favorites of mine during the draft years back(NAILED IT!). Every site seems to have a completely different take on the Center's available. This was a very informative breakdown!

I would like to see the Cardinals make a run at McKinnon from Minny and Gabriel from the Falcons as well as Burton from the Eagles and Kelemete from the Saints. Kelemete was here a few years ago and I always wondered why they let him go. Long as a C from Washington and Logan from the chiefs if they go to a 4-3 base defense. Claiborne from the Jets or Gaines from the Bills and Burnett from the Packers. None of these guys are going to demand big money but can all be solid starters or role players for the Cardinals. What kickers are on the FA list? I think Dawson could be replaced with younger and cheaper options.

Man, I totally agree on Jerick McKinnon---love that guy. Gabriel and Burton too. Yes to Kelemete and Long too. You are right on the money. The one who will likely command the most $$$ is TE Trey Burton. Sportrac guesstimates him at $7m a year. Not sure it will be that much, but after paying Gresham $7.5M a year, can the Cardinals justify close to $15M on 2 TEs? At least with McCoy the TEs should be more relevant.

Niklas showed improvement this year I would be ok with him on a cheap one year deal and just roll with him and Gresham and Seals-Jones
