Unofficial list of potential FAs, including four- and five-year vets

  • By NFL.com
More Columns >

With the rules for the 2011 league year still to be determined, Jason La Canfora has compiled a list of potential free agents based on the assumption that just four accrued seasons would be necessary to be eligible for free agency. Under 2010 rules, six accrued seasons were necessary for free agency.

Players with an asterisk next to their name received the franchise tag prior to the lockout.
