The 2024 regular season has been put to bed, the Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl champions, and now the rest of the NFL is retooling to try and knock them off of the throne. The league is on the doorstep of free agency and there's already been a tremendous amount of moves to come down, including Deebo Samuel being traded to Washington and an array of would-be free agents either inking extensions or being franchise tagged.
That's evidence enough to say that this is one of the most hectic periods on the NFL calendar, and free agency is set to shift it even more into hyperdrive. Unofficially, the action begins on Monday with clubs being allowed to discuss the parameters of contract and agree in principle on deals with unrestricted free agents. However, those deals cannot become official until the start of the new league year on Wednesday, March 12 at 4 p.m. ET.
This offseason, there are plenty of big names currently aimed to hit the open market, including Sam Darnold, Chris Godwin, Stefon Diggs and Khalil Mack. Below, we'll get a look at the top 50 players slated to hit free agency.
