Best/Worst Free Agent Pool


I think many think that this year will be the worst offseason in history (or maybe not to that extent) as far as the free agents available. Leave to me to think otherwise, right? Right.

The reason most people believe the free agents will be so weak this year is because there won't be many big name free agents out there (if I'm not mistaken).  But the way I see it, the players on each team that have little value or recognition could be the ones to hit the market. The smart organizations will have already thoroughly evaluated there young talent and realize their potential consequently letting some veterans go.  But most organizations are going to keep their big name players on board consequently letting some of the younger players go.  This is great for the younger guys who have been looked over or buried under depth charts behind a stud veteran.  Some of these guys may just be nfl backups their whole career but there's alot of diamonds in the rough out there also.  I think this may be the best free agent pool in years because so much is un-known. In my opinion, the organizations with the best scouts and an eye for talent will flourish this offseason.  As for the redskins sake, I hope we use this as a benefit a get some younger guys with potential and are out to prove something instead of givinig out huge money to the few veterans that'll hit the free agent market.  Tell me what you guys think.
