1.
2. Kurt Warner, QB: Expect the deal to come in at two years, $22 million with Arizona.
3.
4. Ray Lewis, LB: Lots of talk about Dallas or the Jets, but look for him to return to Baltimore.
5. T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR: Bengals are delusional enough to think he might return. Yeah, right.
6.
7. Bryant McFadden, CB: Best cornerback among a lot of mediocre ones on this list.
8. Jabari Greer, CB: He’s going to get a lot of money ($7 million a year) after two decent campaigns.
9. Phillip Buchanon, CB: Florida native likely to return to Tampa Bay. Bucs have the cash.
10. Derrick Ward, RB: Former seventh-round pick hits the big time in a shallow group of RBs.
11. Khalif Barnes, OT: Had issues in Jacksonville, but he has pretty serious talent.
12.
13.
14. Tra Thomas, OT: He’s old, but he can still play and left tackles aren’t easy to get in free agency.
15.
16.
17. Chris Canty, DE: There’s tremendous speculation he’ll go to Miami. Terrific DL in a 3-4 scheme.
18. Jake Grove, C: Another guy who could easily end up in Miami.
*19.
*20. Mark Tauscher, OT: He’s old, but the Packers need to have their right tackle back.
21.
22.
23.
24.
25. Byron Leftwich, QB: Good guy, nice arm, wants to start. But that release is still slow.
26. Matt Birk, C: Six-time Pro Bowler is getting up there, but he could bring leadership to a developing line.
27. Drayton Florence, CB: He never fit in Jacksonville, but his age and experience will make him a commodity again.
28. Darren Sharper, S: Veteran safety who can still hit, but his playmaking skills may be on the decline.
29. Nate Washington, WR: He turns 26 this offseason and has big-play ability. Should be ready to be a consistent No. 2 in a scheme with a big-armed quarterback.
30. Devery Henderson, WR: Young and speedy. Can be a solid No. 2 in a vertical scheme.
31.
32. Laveranues Coles, WR: Moody, but the talent is there to be a top level No. 2 for a few more years - rumor is Miami
33. Marvin Harrison, WR: Could still be a solid No. 2 if he’s healthy, but he’s falling off fast. One or two more years of solid production may be it.
34. Marcus Washington, LB: Aging playmaker who has missed 12 regular season games the last three years. Can still be a good starter.
35. Cedric Benson, RB: Finally showed some determined production in ’08, but he’s still too risky for a major contractual commitment.
*36. Marvel Smith, OT: If his back trouble subsides, he’s on the fringe of the league’s top 10 tackles. If it doesn’t, his career may be in jeopardy.
*37. Chris McAlister, CB: He has lost a step and hasn’t been healthy since 2006, but still has a lot of value in a thin year at cornerback. Big risk, moderate reward player.
38.
*39. Jon Runyan, OT: Has gone an astonishing 12 years without missing a game, but had microfracture surgery this offseason. He’s just getting too old to be a good risk.
40. Cato June, LB: His role in Tampa limited some of his numbers, but he should be a quality starter in a 4-3 for another three years.
41. Jeff Garcia, QB: A solid one or two-year stopgap for a West Coast scheme.
42. Joey Galloway, WR: He can round out a receiving core as a No. 2 for a year or two.
43.
44.
45. Trai Essex, OT: He can play multiple positions and provide good depth. He could still develop into a solid starter.
46. Sean Jones, S: A solid playmaker who will get a fat contract. He’s a little overrated, but could be very good with a strong surrounding cast.
*47. Angelo Crowell, LB: Missed all of 2008 with a serious knee injury. If he was healthy, he’d be one of the best linebackers in this class.
48. Mike Peterson, LB: Injuries and butting heads with coach Jack Del Rio robbed him of three good years. Either there is very little left, or he’s going to be a big bargain.
49. John St. Clair, OT: Another guy who isn’t a quality starter but who can play multiple positions and give depth.
50. Andre’ Goodman, CB: Had arguably his best season in the NFL last year. He turns 31 this year, but cornerbacks will be at a premium.
51.
52. Derrick Brooks, LB: A shade of the player he once was. Can still bring great leadership to a young defense.
53.
54. Russ Hochstein, G: Career backup who can start in a pinch. He’ll get a surprising contract and start somewhere.
55. Lawyer Milloy, S: His best days are far behind him, but he’s serviceable and can help bring along young players in the secondary.
56. J.P. Losman, QB: He’s got great tools but makes poor decisions. He’s a Leftwich-type reclamation project at this point.
57. Rex Grossman, QB: A good arm and a terrible head. Another Leftwich-type backup who might be able to be salvaged down the line.
58.
59. Bertrand Berry, DE: He has missed 23 games in the last four years, but he could be a good one- or two-year starter opposite an “elite” defensive end in a 4-3.
60. Gerald Sensabaugh, S: A talented player who showed flashes of brilliance last season. He’s been arrested twice in the past two years.
61. Geoff Hangartner, C/G: Should be a respectable starter at guard or center wherever he signs. His next contract will surprise some people.
62. Eric Barton, LB: A solid tackler whose best playmaking days are behind him. He might have two years left in him as a starter in a 3-4 system.
63. Rocky Bernard, DT: He never showed he could play as well as his great 2005 season, but he’s got three or four good starting years left.
64. Igor Olshansky, DT: A 3-4 end who looked like he was going to develop into a very respectable player until the coaching staff soured on him last season.
65.
66. Kevin Carter DE/DT: He’s not a three-down player anymore, but he can still play. A good veteran rotation player for the right price.
67. Deuce McAllister, RB: Still has a year or two left as a split-carry option if he could stay healthy. That’s a big if.
68.
68. Shaun Cody, DT: Has skills, but no sacks or forced fumbles in the last three years. Could be a bargain if someone can motivate him, or an utter bust if they can’t.
69. Jim Leonhard, S: Filled in nicely in injury situations and can be a solid starter who makes the occasional play.
70.
71. James Sanders, S: Could be a solid starter for a 3-4 team, particularly one that needs someone who understands the alignment.
72. Mike Nugent, K: Best kicker on the market in terms of combination of youth and skill. Might be more of a factor from 50-plus if he gets out of the Meadowlands.
73. L.J. Smith, TE: Injuries halted his growth into a top tight end. When healthy, he’s still young enough to contribute 40 receptions and 500 yards to a passing game.
74. Pete Kendall, G: The sun is setting on his career, but he’s a good option for a team needing a one- or two-year guard who can mentor some younger players.
75. Ronald Fields, DT: He’s never really found his niche as a defensive end or tackle in a 4-3. He could play nose in a 3-4 alignment.
76. Mike Wright, DT: A young 3-4 lineman who the Patriots liked enough last season to assign a second-round tender to him. Could be a quality starter for another team.
77. Corey Ivy, CB: Speed and size deficient. Could be a good signing for depth in the Cover 2.
78.
79. Zach Thomas, LB: His lack of size and speed has caught up to him. He’s little more than a solid tackler at this point in his career.
80. LaMont Jordan, RB: On the downside of his career, but can still contribute with 10 touches a game if he ever stays healthy.
81. Keiwan Ratliff, CB: Did a nice job after injuries forced him to play 13 games last season.
82. Ron Bartell, CB: Got a chance to play last season and did a solid job. Even got three interceptions.
83. Justin Miller, CB: Failed top pick with Jets has nice return ability if healthy.
84. Tyjuan Hagler, LB: Active, tough and good on special teams. Needs to be in Tampa 2 defense.
85. Kenny Peterson, DE: Even after six years of inconsistency, he flashes tempting ability.
86. Ronald Curry, WR: Injuries have hampered a promising career. Nice all-around athlete.
87. Dan Orlovsky, QB: Looking for the safety of a No. 2 job where he won’t run into safeties.
88. Ty Law, CB: Law doesn’t do training camp at this stage of his career. Wait till September.
89. Kevin Burnett, LB: Durable and active, but hasn’t lived up to being a second-round pick.
90.
91.
92. Dominic Rhodes, RB: If he’s smart, he stays in Indianapolis no matter what the cost.
93.
94. Warrick Dunn, RB: A serviceable No. 2 who may have two years left in that role.
95. Amani Toomer, WR: Leading receiver in Giants history is a classy vet playing out the string.
96. Bobby Engram, WR: Like Toomer, he’s at the end but is terrific in third-down situations.
97. Rudi Johnson, RB: Might have some mileage left on his body if he can get healthy.
98.
99. Jason Craft, CB: Typical CB who survives a decade in the league because he knows the game.
