Maybe an overstatement on my part but FA surely has slowed down to a crawl and would think teams will wait until after the draft before signing FA
Here is a list of top FA still out there
2019 NFL free agency seems to be winding down as we get closer to the draft, but there still are productive players available who can plug holes for teams. Here's are the top 12 remaining free agents.
Jay Ajayi, RB
Coming off ACL surgery, he rushed for 1,272 yards in 2016 with Miami. There have been questions about knee issues for Ajayi, who played last season for the Eagles. It shouldn't take much money to add the running back who will only turn 26 in June; if healthy, he can be a three-down back.
Ezekiel Ansah, DE
He recorded only two sacks while playing through an injury in 2016 and played only seven games last season for Detroit. However, he had 12 sacks in 2017. The former first-round pick should have plenty left if he's healthy. Coming off a down year, he's a potential free-agent steal.
Eric Berry, S
Berry has appeared in only four games over the last two seasons due to a torn Achilles and heel injury. (He's also a cancer survivor.) He's probably not a starter, but he could be a cheap and key contributor for a playoff team.
Tre Boston, S
Boston, who had an excellent season for Arizona in 2018, could be the victim of a deep safety class. He had three picks and 79 tackles while playing well in coverage over 14 games last season. He turns 27 in June. He's a potential steal among this year's free agents.
Zach Brown, LB
Brown's production fell off slightly with Washington last season, but the seven-year pro still had 96 tackles after recording 149 in 2016 and 127 in 2017. Brown, who turns 30 in October, still has enough upside.
Morris Claiborne, CB
The oft-injured Claiborne finally managed to stay relatively healthy with the Jets, starting 15 games in each of the past two seasons. He has often been overexposed as a starter and has mediocre ball skills, but he has plenty of experience. It wouldn't be a shock if he followed former Jets head coach Todd Bowles to Tampa Bay. Bowles is the Bucs' defensive coordinator.
Jamie Collins, LB
Cleveland moved on from Collins after he disappointed in two-plus years with the team. The Browns expected him to be a bigger contributor as a pass rusher, but Collins had just seven sacks in 30 games. He recorded 104 tackles last season and has the versatility to help in a lot of schemes. Perhaps he's just waiting for the right fit.
Michael Crabtree, WR
Crabtree, who turns 32 in September, didn't do much on a one-year deal with Baltimore last season after a down year with Oakland in 2017. He has more than 80 receptions three times in his career, but he's generated less separation in recent seasons. Of course, a better situation in a more pass-heavy offense might be helpful.
Stephen Gostkowski, K
Gostkowski has spent his entire career in New England, but the two sides haven't agreed on a contract. The 35-year-old has made 87 percent of his field goals since entering the league in 2006. It seems like only a matter of time before Gostkowski strikes a deal with New England.
Glover Quin, S
Quin was released by the Lions following last season and reportedly is contemplating retirement. He was productive in 2018, recording 74 tackles. He's 33 but should be able to find a new home if he chooses.
Ndamukong Suh, DT
Suh, who turned 32 in January, is no longer the dominant presence he was early in his career, but he remains a ferocious run stopper and adequate pass rusher. He lined up next to Aaron Donald with the Rams last season, recording 59 tackles and 4.5 sacks. The three-time All-Pro shouldn't have a problem finding a starting job.
Muhammad Wilkerson, DL
Wilkerson's NFL career is at a crossroads after struggling with the Jets in 2017 and appearing in only three games with Green Bay last season before getting injured. Wilkerson, who turns 30 in October, has recorded double-digit sacks twice in his career, but he is coming off a major ankle injury.
