Update: We’ve hit the new league year and a big chunk of the top ranked free agents are gone, but we did add Ezekiel Elliott, who was just released.
Update: Derek Carr landed in New Orleans and Daniel Jones re-signed with the Giants, while Lamar Jackson, Saquon Barkley, Tony Pollard, Josh Jacobs, Da’Ron Payne, and Evan Engram all received the franchise tag.
The 2023 free agency season kicks off March 15 at 4 p.m. ET, which is the start of the 2023 NFL league year. Free agency will end before the 2023 NFL Draft. As usual, there are plenty of talented players set for free agency this off season, but much of that talent will stick with their current teams due to re-signing or getting the franchise tag. As you get down the rankings, the odds of a player moving on go up.
It would truly be an upset to see Lamar Jackson, Saquon Barkley, Jamal Dean, Javon Hargrave, and many of the true studs make it to free agency, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be plenty of good players looking to move on for better opportunities or a higher paycheck or both.
Here is a countdown of our top-130 available free agents heading into the 2023 league year
