Following the trades of A.J. Brown and Myles Garrett, the focus of fans hoping for their teams to improve this summer shifts to free agency. There are still some quality top NFL free agents remaining, enough for every club to strengthen their roster before training camp.
Let’s dive into our list of one NFL free agent we’d like to see each team sign.
In 2025, the Arizona Cardinals had the fourth-lowest pressure rate (18.2 percent) in the NFL. However, the pass-rushing situation really was not addressed adequately in free agency or the 2026 NFL Draft. Enter Marcus Davenport. Durability (14 games played over the last two seasons) is a massive issue for him, but the former first-round pick has still demonstrated he can at least provide depth as an edge defender. It would be a low-risk, moderate-reward move for Arizona.
Behind Drake London, the Atlanta Falcons’ receiver room is headlined by Jahan Dotson, Zachariah Branch and Olamide Zaccheaus. It is not exactly an ideal situation. Atlanta could also use some more size at receiver, given its secondary wideouts are all under 6 feet. DeAndre Hopkins is not anything close to what he used to be, but the 34-year-old still offers good size (6-foot-1), and he could provide some nice veteran mentorship to work with London and Branch.
Looking at the Baltimore Ravens’ depth chart, one area of concern is the lack of alternative options at offensive tackle. If Roger Rosengarten or Ronnie Stanley goes down, the next man up is the untested Carson Vinson. A more experienced swing tackle feels necessary. Veteran Jonah Williams is not a starting-caliber right tackle anymore, but he is a great depth option who would be fine as a fill-in starter for a short stretch if Baltimore needed him.
We do not love the Buffalo Bills’ situation right now at outside corner. Christian Benford and Maxwell Hairston are the obvious starters, but defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard needs rotational defensive backs behind them. NFL free agency is a bit thin, but all we are looking for is solid depth. Marshon Lattimore is years removed from being a Pro Bowl-caliber cornerback, but he is an experienced starter who could still be viable in a situational role. Last season, he allowed just a 59.5 percent completion rate in coverage with a 93.0 passer rating allowed when targeted.
The Carolina Panthers seem satisfied with Tommy Tremble and Ja’Tavion Sanders as their tight ends. It is a situation with room for improvement. David Njoku would have been ideal for Carolina, but we would also like it if the club signed veteran tight end Jonnu Smith. He is a classic “move” tight end for Dave Canales, giving Bryce Young another underneath option in the passing game.
You can never have enough pass-rushing depth in the...
