2008 NFL Free Agency (official thread)

Buckin' A

Veritas Aequitas
Looks to be a pretty good year for free agents. As far as the Browns go, here's who I'd like to see Phil show some interest in...


Albert Haynesworth, DT, Titans. The chance for big money motivated him to have his best NFL season. The fact that there are so few young, space-eating, run-stuffing defensive tackles increases his value even more.

Jared Allen, DE, Chiefs. Like Haynesworth and Clark, you can expect Allen's current team to ensure he returns. The NFL's new sack champ (15 1/2) has put his off-field issues behind him to become a premier end.

Corey Williams, DT, Packers. He's what oft-injured Falcon Rod Coleman used to be three years ago -- a talented interior pass rusher in his prime.

Terrell Suggs, OLB/DE, Ravens. Suggs, along with Baltimore's entire defense, had a bit of a down season, but he still will be highly coveted as a versatile edge rusher.

Bernard Berrian, WR, Bears. Shaky quarterback play has limited his potential as a big-play threat. On the right team with a top passer, he has superstar ability.

Marion Barber, RB, Cowboys. Expect this young, bruising back to go from restricted to re-upped for the long term, especially with the team unlikely to re-sign backfield mate Julius Jones.

Michael Turner, RB, Chargers. It still isn't known whether the Burner can be successful handling a full load after being a first-rate backup to LT. It would be fun, however, to see him get the chance.

A big reason the Patriots will be playing to finish a perfect season in Super Bowl 42 is their superior skill at playing the NFL's free-agent market. To remain an elite team throughout the decade, they have mastered the art of letting their own high-priced free agents go and reloading with good-value veterans....
