NFL teams are looking for veteran free agents; Here are the best available
NFL teams have basically began shutting down their rosters. The teams have to make cuts soon, and they will likely not be taking too many more players unless they had them highly rated on their draft boards or they are filling a spot for an injury. With that being said there are still several very solid players left and guys I would be trying to sign if I was a GM.
There are many teams with interior line depth, and there are some very good players out there. Evan Mathis the All-Pro offensive guard is a guy that I would be jumping all over. I would sign him to a 2 year deal, because he is a very highly rated offensive guard.
Aldon Smith is another guy that will face some sort of punishment from the league offices, but he is a guy that has amassed 44 sacks since entering the NFL in 2011. He is a stud and could be a beast for a team like the Buffalo Bills who have shown they are not afraid to add players who need a second chance. Could you imagine, Mario Williams, Kyle Williams, Jerry Hughes, Marcell Dareus, and Aldon Smith? OH MY……
