Jason Pierre Paul (Giants)

Darrelle Revis (Patriots)

Greg Hardy (Panthers)

Brian Orakpo (Redskins)

Frank Gore (49ers)

Wes Welker (Broncos)

I think Revis will want to restructure and stay with the pats longer term. I get the feeling pay days will now be a secondary concern. I may get proved wrong but I really hope not!!!!!!!!! (Please please please let me be right)

IMO Mike Iupati, Parrish Cox and Chris Culliver are higher priority than Gore and Crabtree for the 49ers. Gore was criminally underused last season, AFAIK he wants to stay so it's down to whether Tomsula wants him or not. Crabtree had a poor year, worth keeping as long as he doesn't want crazy money.

Randall Cobb could be a free agent. He could probably get big money if he wanted

I reckon he's off to the Seagulls for some reason. He'd obviously be a great player for a lot of teams but they don't have a lot of money invested in the position and I imagine he'd like a ring as much as a payday. Can't see the Packers giving him a raise, maybe an extension but they've got too many solid guys waiting in the wings for them to invest more in Cobb I think.

I reckon Suh and Bryant are the only ones who end up with massive contracts; Dez probably staying in Dallas and Suh more than likely moving on (how scary would it be if he ended up in Houston! O_O ). Revis like a couple of you guys said will probably restructure to stay in NE if they still want him, same with Rolle in New York. I reckon Doug Free and Brian Orakpo could both move on (actually wouldnt mind seeing either of them at NYG despite their current allegiances).

I think Crabtree and Maclin will test the market and end up staying where they are, JPP and Greg Hardy get franchised and Welker and Gore both retire

Yep, would agree with most of that. If Gore doesn't get one more year in SF I'd be fairly sure he will retire too, can't see anyone else throwing a wad of cash at him. Here's around the NFL's top 25 free agents, Crabtree doesn't even make that list.

1. Ndamukong Suh, Detroit Lions defensive tackle

2. Justin Houston, Kansas City Chiefs pass rusher

3. Dez Bryant, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver

4. Demaryius Thomas, Denver Broncos wide receiver

5. Jason Pierre-Paul, New York Giants defensive end

6. Julius Thomas, Denver Broncos tight end

7. Mike Iupati, San Francisco 49ers guard

8. Randall Cobb, Green Bay Packers wide receiver

9. Devin McCourty, New England Patriots safety

10. DeMarco Murray, Dallas Cowboys running back

11. Jerry Hughes, Buffalo Bills pass rusher

12. Jason Worilds, Pittsburgh Steelers pass rusher

13. Jared Odrick, Miami Dolphins defensive tackle

14. Pernell McPhee, Baltimore Ravens pass rusher

15. Terrance Knighton, Denver Broncos defensive tackle

16. Jeremy Maclin, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver

17. Brandon Graham, Philadelphia Eagles pass rusher

18. Torrey Smith, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver

19. Greg Hardy, Carolina Panthers pass rusher*

20. Byron Maxwell, Seattle Seahawks cornerback

21. C.J. Spiller, Buffalo Bills running back

22. Nick Fairley, Detroit Lions defensive tackle

23. Brandon Flowers, San Diego Chargers cornerback

24. Brian Orakpo, Washington Redskins pass rusher

25. Jordan Cameron, Cleveland Browns tight end

Suh has pretty much said he's leaving. Fairley is utter tosh too. Unfit and inconsistent. CJ Mosley is the better Lions DT.

Bryant shouldn't be anywhere near the open market if Jerruh had any sense. Same with Houston. Can the Broncos keep both Thomas'?

I'd like to see the Jets take a big run at Devin McCourty. One of the best Safety's in the game and a massive need. We need a CB in Free Agency too. Brandon Flowers and Byron Maxwell would be my picks but Todd Bowles may want to work with Cromartie again so he could be back.

Out of those I'd seriously hope the Titans get a few with the cap space we have.

Houston (obviously)

Cobb (sure he grew up a Titan fan, probably a long shot)

McCourty (think the cheats will keep him but really close with his twin)

CJ Spiller (we need a new CJ)

Nick Fairley (a lot of people had us taking him the year we took Locker)
