Would you kick the tires on any of these guys??
24. DARRELLE REVIS, CB
No player aged quicker than Revis did last season, as he was frequently burned in the Jets' secondary. The market has been quiet for the soon to be 32-year-old, which shows how far he's fallen since being the premier corner in the league.
23. BRANDON FLOWERS, CB
Injuries have been an issue over the last few seasons for the undersized Flowers, but he was a formerly a top cornerback in Kansas City. He could still have something left at age 31.
22. VINCENT JACKSON, WR
Knee injuries have hindered Jackson, who has played a total of 15 games over the last two seasons. At age 34, his options could be limited.
21. VICTOR CRUZ, WR
Cruz played only six games in two years before returning for 15 games last season with the Giants. He wasn't nearly the deep threat of his early career but still had 15.0 yards per reception.
20. ANQUAN BOLDIN, WR
Boldin was a red zone fiend in Detroit last season with eight touchdowns. He's clearly slowed judging by his terrible 8.7 yards per reception, but the experience should make teams with cap room interested.
19. ELVIS DUMERVIL, OLB
Dumervil played only eight games last season due to a foot injury, recording only three sacks. He had 17 sacks in 2014 and can still make waves as a pass-rushing specialist at age 33.
18. RYAN FITZPATRICK, QB
Fitzpatrick had a career year in 2015, then held out for the largest one-year deal he could get in New York. After getting paid, Fitzpatrick had an awful year and was benched. He could still have some value as a veteran backup.
17. PAUL KRUGER, OLB
New Orleans was hoping Kruger would revitalize his career last season, but he managed only 1.5 sacks in 15 games. He did have 11 sacks in 2014, so someone could take a flier on the 31-year-old.
16. JASON MCCOURTY, CB
McCourty missed most of 2015 due to injury and was gouged last season as a weak link in Tennessee's awful secondary. His past strong play should still find him a job.
15. MARQUESS WILSON, WR
Wilson played only three games last season due to a broken foot. The foot problems are a major red flag with repeated issues, but Wilson has been productive as a deep threat.
14. SEN'DERRICK MARKS, DT
It wasn't long ago that Marks was a very productive player for the Jaguars, with nine sacks in 2014. However, he played only four games in 2015 due to injury and was slowed last season.
13. JAY CUTLER, QB
Cutler finally wore out his welcome in Chicago last season, and there have been rumors of an imminent retirement. He is just one year removed from a very good season with the Bears, throwing for more than 3,600 yards in 2015. However, Cutler will likely have to take a job as a backup.
12. DEANDRE LEVY, OLB
Levy has played only six games over the last two seasons in Detroit due to injuries and is now coming off of knee surgery. At age 30, his career is in doubt.
11. MICHAEL FLOYD, WR
Floyd was absolutely horrendous in his walk year in Arizona before getting a DUI that got him released. He finished the season in New England but was inactive for the Super Bowl. He's had at least 800 yards receiving three times but had only 488 yards on 37 receptions last season.
10. SAM SHIELDS, CB
Shields was once a top corner in Green Bay, but his football future is now very much up in the air due to concussions. He managed to play only one game last season.
9. GARY BARNIDGE, TE
The Browns released Barnidge shortly after day one of the draft, as they drafted Miami standout David Njoku. Barnidge will be 32 in September, but he's coming off the two best seasons of his career. He had 79 receptions for 1,043 yards and nine touchdowns in 2015.
8. GERALD HODGES, ILB
Hodges is coming off a strong season in San Francisco, with 83 tackles and three sacks. He's had a few visits, but no teams have bitten on the four-year veteran.
7. ALTERRAUN VERNER, CB
A former All-Pro in Tennessee, Verner found himself on the bench often in Tampa Bay last season. He's likely looking at a backup job in 2017.
6. KING DUNLAP, OT
Dunlap has played only 19 games over the last two seasons with the Chargers, clouding his free agent value. He can still help a team, especially with a thin offensive line draft class this year.
5. NICK MANGOLD, C
A staple with the Jets, Mangold is looking for a new home after 11 seasons in New York. He played only eight games last season due to injury.
4. RYAN CLADY, OT
Clady has had major injury issues in recent seasons, only playing nine games over the last two years. He's a right tackle when he's healthy, so someone will likely take a chance on him.
3. TRAMAINE BROCK, CB
Brock is likely a do-not-touch free agent after being arrested for domestic violence and released by the 49ers in April. He's certainly talented enough to help a team, but that probably won't come to fruition anytime soon.
2. COLIN KAEPERNICK, QB
Kaepernick had a rebound season in Chip Kelly's offense last year, but that's not how he made most of his headlines. The former NFC champion made waves with his protests during the national anthem, and there haven't been many rumors of team interested in his services.
1. LEGARRETTE BLOUNT, RB
Blount has found most of his NFL success in New England, but he's apparently headed elsewhere this offseason after the Pats added Rex Burkhead and Mike Gillislee. Blount's market has been quiet despite a career-high 299 carries for 1,161 yards and 18 touchdowns last season.
