Free Agency Preview 2014-Part 1: Offensive Players

As the NFL is about to kick off free agency, here is a look at the top players available at each position. The rankings reflect age, productivity, and potential. Some players are slotted above others based on where I think those players project in the next few years. Free agency can be a high-risk and high-reward scenario for many teams. Sometimes a pick free agent pick up can turn a team into a playoff contender, and sometimes a big free agent move can backfire and send the team into a precarious cap situation. For our preview, we will start on the offensive side of the ball. Here is a look at the top free agents available on offense for the 2014 season.
