2011 NFL Free Agents: The Complete List

In case anybody was wondering the level of chaos we could find ourselves in over the next week, I present to you Exhibit A: the full list of NFL free agents (PDF), broken by what level of free agency they've earned, including restricted with qualifying offers, Franchise players, unrestricted free agents with four or more years of service, and unrestricted free agents with fewer than four years of service.

There's nothing shocking on this list like Aubrayo Franklin is actually a restricted free agent (sorry, he's still unrestricted). Pretty standard information. I didn't bother counting up the whole list. All I know is there are a lot of players available in free agency and when you add in all the undrafted rookie free agents, it's a good thing teams will have some time tomorrow morning to start dealing with the UDFAs.

In the meantime, I think this video from Animal House is a good summary of how the next few days might go. We'll have plenty of news updates on the front page throughout the day. We won't be reporting every single rumored visit, but rather will have open threads to update during the day. And of course, the general open free agency thread will remain up and running over the course of this week. Consider that thread a supplement to the front page.

When actual signings occur, or at least appear to have occurred, we'll have updates for you. As for the rumors, bigger rumors might get a front page post individually, but at the very least we'll put together at least one recap each day of the various rumors, and maybe two depending on how rampant the rumors are as the day progresses. In the meantime all is well. Remain calm.

clarification

I was saying there’s nothing shocking like “Aubrayo Franklin is a restricted free agent.” Does that make sense? I’ll edit something in

food for thought....

Would 49ers FO go for David Akers? Since some say Joe Nedney might be a player that gets cut.

Niners,Nets,Reds & USC!!!

Hasselbeck a Niner ?

Steve Young interview on TV this afternoon…

“I think Hasselbeck will go to SF” . I think he wants to go to SF,he loves JH". It’s been in the works for some time ".

It’s what I have been hoping for,so I hope he is correct !

Reposting from the older, now inactive post

I think guys want to play for the Niners now, have thought so since the draft. Going back to guys like PP saying they felt a connection with the Niners during interviews and workouts. I think there’s a really shift in the energy and culture on the team and players are buying in.

It doesn't make sense.

I doubt any of us have to worry. Steve was just knocking Smith like he always does.

AubrayoFrankling seems to be getting quite a bit of heat due to the fact that he is a restricted free agent. It’s sad that the entire free agents thing has gone completely out of the control of the NFL.

Sleeper: Donovan Edwards, C, Cal. Inexperienced but has the size (6-5, 297) to be an NFL center. Gets into pass blocking position with ease.

Here's what fftoolbox had to say about him
The tackle totals should not concern NFL teams. When Williams was garnering more attention from the opposing offensive line, he still made a huge impact on the game. It may not have shown up in the box score, but it was there. Any team looking for a nose tackle with experience in a 3-4 scheme should be lucky to nab Williams in the third round.

Sounds promising.

by brianmc27 on Jul 25, 2011 7:05 PM PDT up reply actions  

I dont know what happened to him.

He was regarded as one of the better prospects before the draft.

I was very surprised that he went completely undrafted.

Analysis

Positives: Thick frame with powerful lower body. Takes good angle off the snap, able to get into the chest of opposing linemen and sustain position at the point of attack. Displays power and good leverage to bend the edge against the run. Good balance and lateral mobility to sideline while engaged with blocker. Relentless, hard-working guy held in high regard by coaches and teammates for his hustle and work ethic. An inspirational figure, Dobbs spent much of his adolescence in and out of foster homes before earning a football scholarship to Georgia.
 
Negatives: Does not possess speed or burst off the line to be an effective pass rusher at the next level. Strength and power at the point of attack put him in position to make plays, but has difficulty shedding, preventing him from being a consistent finisher against the run. Hands too inactive, as he struggles to keep arms extended and disengage from opposing linemen. Will drop his head on contact with blocker and lose sight of backfield.
 

Niners,Nets,Reds & USC!!!
