1. Ryan Fitzpatrick -- Only starting-caliber QB left. Still seems likely to stay in NYJ.
2. Russell Okung -- Quality LT starter when healthy. 13 missed games last 3 years.
3. Prince Amukamara -- Giants moved on by signing Janoris Jenkins. Linked to NYJ.
4. Sean Smith -- Plus-sized press CB. Expected to pick between OAK, SF, and KC.
5. Reggie Nelson -- Coming off 8-interception season. Entering age-33 campaign.
6. Eric Weddle -- Turned 31 in January. Market has been surprisingly quiet so far.
7. Donald Penn -- Will turn 33 in April. Still a high-end pass-protecting left tackle.
8. Robert Ayers -- Can play DE & DT. 9.5 sacks in 2015. Visited Bucs on Wednesday.
9. Jerrell Freeman -- Turns 30 in May. PFF's No. 2-graded inside linebacker in '15.
10. Greg Hardy -- 22 sacks in last 27 games. Market silent due to character issues.
11. Kelvin Beachum -- Undersized LT (6'3/303) coming off ACL tear. Turns 27 in June.
12. Nick Fairley -- Turned 28 in Jan. Rotational DT only, but can dominate in spurts.
13. Casey Hayward -- Ascending 26-year-old slot corner. Not expected back in GB.
14. Chris Long -- Injuries have limited Long to three sacks over his last 16 games.
15. Cedric Thornton -- Run-stuffing 3-4 end. Does not help in passing situations.
16. Patrick Robinson -- Had career-best year with Bolts. Can cover slot & outside.
17. Louis Vasquez -- 29. Cut by Broncos. Should interest power-blocking teams.
18. Akiem Hicks -- Mammoth 6'5/318 DE/DT. Expected to visit Chicago this week.
19. Rashad Johnson -- Had 5 INTs in 2015. Cards replaced him with Tyvon Branch.
20. Walter Thurmond -- Ex-slot CB had breakout year at safety. Turns 29 in August.
21. Anquan Boldin -- Going on age 36. Can still contribute as possession receiver.
22. Mohamed Sanu -- Overrated gadget WR with poor hands. Linked to ATL & NE.
23. Arian Foster -- Will turn 30 in August. Tore his Achilles' tendon last October.
24. Brandon Boykin -- Underappreciated 25-year-old slot CB. Market quiet so far.
25. Zach Miller -- Going on age 32. Posted a 34-439-5 receiving line last season.
26. Terrance Knighton -- 3-4 NT. Pot Roast disappointed last year with Commanders.
27. Geoff Schwartz -- In 2nd tier of free agent OGs. Good player, bad injury luck.
28. Mike Wallace -- Turns 30 in August. Ravens reportedly have some interest.
29. Jahri Evans -- Cut by Saints. 6-time Pro Bowler running on fumes. 33 in August.
30. Leon Hall -- Has extended career by successfully transitioning to slot corner.
31. Courtney Upshaw -- 26-year-old 2-down edge-setter OLB. Not a pass rusher.
32. Evan Mathis -- PFF's No. 1 run-blocking G in '15, but poor in pass pro & 34yo.
33. Stefen Wisniewski -- Replacement-level C gets pushed around in run game.
34. Brent Grimes -- Cut by Miami due to off-field concerns, declining on-field play.
35. James Laurinaitis -- Big name, small game. Falcons, Saints have nosed around.
36. Rueben Randle -- Big and athletic, but has a lazy streak. Underachieving WR.
37. Zach Brown -- Injury-riddled 4-3 weak-side LB with sideline-to-sideline speed.
38. Robert Griffin III -- Broncos rumored to have interest. Would fit in Kubiak's O.
39. Tahir Whitehead -- Fierce run defender/special teamer. Can play all 3 LB spots.
40. Nick Perry -- Former first-round bust had solid '15 season as rotational 3-4 OLB.
41. Will Beatty -- Missed all of 2015 to injury. Was above-average starting LT in '14.
42. Bilal Powell -- Versatile RBBC back has been connected to DAL, NE, BAL, NYJ.
43. B.J. Raji -- Consistent tendency to start fast, wear down as seasons progress.
44. Jason Jones -- Base-defense LE can also play inside. 9.5 sacks last 2 seasons.
45. Mike Neal -- Swiss-army-knife role player. Better run stopper than pass rusher.
46. Jason Hatcher -- Can still disrupt QBs, but reportedly considering retirement.
47. Jermaine Kearse -- Career highs in catches/yards/TDs in '15. Only had 4 drops.
48. Sean Weatherspoon -- 28-year-old WLB disappeared after 2014 torn Achilles'.
49. James Starks -- One of the league's better No. 2 RBs. Shouldn't cost much $.
50. Aldon Smith -- Eligible for reinstatement from suspension in November 2016.

I know this is very unlikely to happen, but I would happily take some combination of #6, #8,, #13, #14, and #15.

The Weddle one is the main acquisition that I would prefer. But he has made it clear, he wants to play for a contender. So there's that hurdle to clear.

I wouldn't mind Alfred Morris to work with McFadden, but would much rather draft a back.

How come no one is talking Amukamara? I would be happy with him at a reasonable rate.

Still some talent left if we act quickly, as in today. The carcass will be picked clean after the weekend.

We've been linked to two guys in the Top 20 of that list......... Long and Thornton.

I am preparing myself for utter disappointment today. Hopefully, they prove me wrong.

They should be on the phone right now with a guy like Eric Weddle who has a soft market and would be an absolute smart signing to pair with a young Jones at safety. But we won't. Because we think either Church is still pretty good or that we can find a safety for dirt cheap.

There's some guys to be had. Hopefully dallas can find some upgrades in fa. Either way this season should be watchable unlike last season so it's all good.

Thornton is definite. I think the Long thing is false, everybody is denying it.

Weddle is a pipe dream if you really think about it.

Church is a made man, regardless of what we all think of him. With Byron Jones going to safety, I just don't see Weddle being on Dallas' radar at all.

Then that's a mistake by this front office. You aren't going to find a better safety option on our roster, in free agency or in the draft.

Another season of Barry Church at safety is going to make me scream.

Suprised team hasn't shown interest in Hicks. He can give you some push inside. Played well in New England.
