Keep up to date with where some of the biggest names wind up with FanHouse's NFL Free Agency tracker. The list does not include any player that re-signed with his 2008 team prior to Feb. 27, was hit with the franchise tag, or is a restricted free agent.
| Player | 2008 Team | Signed With |
| Stacy Andrews, OT | Bengals | Eagles, 6 yrs/42 mil |
| Our Take: Andrews has to recover from a torn ACL & MCL suffered in Dec.; He regressed in '08, but should improve the Eagles. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Chris Baker, TE |
Jets | Patriots, terms unknown |
| Khalif Barnes, OT | Jaguars | Raiders, 1 yr |
| Ron Bartell, CB | Rams | Rams, 4 yrs/$28 mil |
| Our Take: The Rams narrowly avoided a big mistake by keeping Bartell, a physical CB who can excel under Steve Spagnuolo. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Eric Barton, LB | Jets | Browns, terms unknown |
| Hank Baskett, WR | Eagles | Eagles, 1 yr |
| Cedric Benson, RB | Bengals | Bengals, 2 yrs/$7 mil |
| Our Take: If Benson finally steps up and takes charge as a starter for a whole season, this is a steal. Too bad that's a huge "if." -- Chris Burke |
||
| Rocky Bernard, DT | Seahawks | Giants, 4 yrs/$16 mil |
| Our Take: The Giants targeted another strong, athletic body at DT. Bernard, an able pass-rusher for a big guy, fits the bill perfectly. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Bertrand Berry, DE | Cardinals | Cardinals, 1 yr |
| Matt Birk, C | Vikings | Ravens, 3 yrs/$12 mil |
| Our Take: Baltimore lost Jason Brown, but at more than $3 million-per-year cheaper, Birk will be welcome with open arms. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Dre Bly, CB | Broncos | 49ers, 1 yr |
| Michael Boley, LB |
Falcons | Giants, 5 yrs/$25 mil |
| Our Take: Boley regressed last year, but he's a young playmaker and talent upgrade for the pedestrian Giants OLBs. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Kyle Boller, QB |
Ravens | Rams, 2 yrs |
| Marty Booker, WR | Bears | ----- |
| Keith Brooking, LB |
Falcons | Cowboys, 3 yrs |
| Our Take: The 'Boys exiled Zach Thomas, yet at this point in his career Brooking is not much of an upgrade. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Derrick Brooks, LB |
Buccaneers |
----- |
| Jason Brown, C/G |
Ravens | Rams, 5 yrs/$37.5 mil |
| Our Take: This is a huge coup for St. Louis, even if it took a sky-high number to get it done. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Mike Brown, S |
Bears | ----- |
| Phillip Buchanon, CB |
Buccaneers |
Lions, 2 yrs/$8.5 mil |
| Our Take: Detroit quietly lands another solid contributor. Don't look now, but the Lions are getting better. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Josh Bullocks, S |
Saints |
Bears, 1 yr |
| Our Take: If the Bears want to lead the league in missed tackles and 20-plus-yard passes against, this is a great signing. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Chris Canty, DE |
Cowboys | Giants, 6 yrs/$42 mil |
| Our Take: Canty's a talented player, but after signing DT Bernard, have the Giants ignored weaknesses elsewhere? -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Cooper Carlisle, G |
Raiders | Raiders, 5 yrs |
| John Carney, K | Giants | ----- |
| Corey Chavous, S |
Rams |
----- |
| Michael Clayton, WR |
Buccaneers |
Bucs, 5 yrs/$24 mil |
| Our Take: The Bucs needed a wide receiver, and I guess Clayton technically qualifies. He hasn't exactly been a star. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Colin Cole, DT | Packers | Seahawks, 5 yrs |
| Our Take: Seattle needed to replace Rocky Bernard; Cole is a solid lane-clogger, but this is his first test as a full-time starter. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Laveranues Coles, WR |
Jets | Bengals, 4 yrs/$28 mil |
| Our Take: The Bengals did a nice job replacing Houshmandzadeh here, and Coles will pair nicely with Ocho Cinco. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Kerry Collins, QB |
Titans | Titans, 2 yrs/$15 mil |
| Our Take: The Titans keep their veteran leader, but did they overpay? This feels like a lot for an aging quarterback with no game-changing ability. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Sean Considine, S | Eagles | Jaguars, 2 yrs/$3 mil |
| Our Take: Considine is a decent safety with special team talent, and Jags need depth at the position. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Chris Crocker, S | Bengals | Bengals, 4 yrs/$10 mil |
| Angelo Crowell, LB |
Bills | Bucs, terms unknown |
| Andra Davis, LB |
Browns | Broncos, terms unknown |
| Our Take: The Broncos continue to hit the market hard, and this is a huge get for their maligned defense. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Brian Dawkins, S |
Eagles | Broncos, 5 yrs/$17 mil |
| Our Take: Dawkins still has something to offer, and Philly's non-interest in keeping him might prove as motivation. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Derrick Dockery, G |
Bills | Redskins, 5 yrs/$26 mil |
| Our Take: Another huge chunk of change handed out by the Redskins, but they needed to address the o-line too. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Warrick Dunn, RB |
Buccaneers |
----- |
| Kalimba Edwards, DE |
Raiders | ----- |
| Ebenezer Ekuban, DE |
Broncos | ----- |
| Bobby Engram, WR |
Seahawks | Chiefs, terms unknown |
| Our Take: Matt Cassel gains a solid, veteran receiver to pair with Dwayne Bowe. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Heath Evans, FB |
Patriots |
Saints, terms unknown |
| Ryan Fitzpatrick, QB |
Bengals | Bills, terms unknown |
| DeShaun Foster, RB |
49ers |
----- |
| Dominique Foxworth, CB | Falcons | Ravens, 4 yrs/$27.2 mil |
| Our Take: With Bart Scott gone and Ray Lewis leaving, the Ravens needed a positive. All the better that this upgrades the secondary. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Vincent Fuller, DB | Titans | Titans, 3 yrs/$7.5 mil |
| Our Take: Fuller is an up-and-coming nickel back who was valuable to the Titans. They considered him a priority. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Mike Furrey, WR |
Lions | Browns, 1 yr |
| Jabar Gaffney, WR |
Patriots |
Broncos, 4 yrs/$10 mil |
| Our Take: Wide receiver's not a dire need for Denver, but Gaffney's low price tag helps. He's a nice addition. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Joey Galloway, WR |
Buccaneers |
Patriots, 1 yr |
| Jeff Garcia, QB |
Buccaneers |
Raiders, 1 yr |
| La'Roi Glover, DT |
Cowboys | ----- |
| Andre Goodman, CB |
Miami |
Broncos, 4 yrs/$25 mil |
| Our Take: Denver continues to bolster its defense with another strong addition, while Miami is left with a big hole in the secondary. -- Tom Herrera |
||
| Ahman Green, RB |
Texans | ----- |
| Trent Green, QB |
Rams |
----- |
| Morlon Greenwood, LB |
Texans | ----- |
| Jabari Greer, CB |
Bills | Saints, 4 yrs |
| Our Take: This is a great pickup for the Saints, and instantly upgrades their secondary. If that defense gets up to par, look out. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Rex Grossman, QB |
Bears | ----- |
| Jake Grove, C |
Raiders |
Dolphins, 5 yrs/$29 mil |
| Our Take: The Fins have turned their offensive line around quickly, and Grove is the type of keystone they need in the middle. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| DeAngelo Hall, CB |
Redskins |
Redskins, 6 yrs/$54 mil |
| Our Take: Sounds like another expensive deal for Hall, but he played well for the Redskins. Remember, he's only 25 years old. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Jovan Haye, DT |
Buccaneers |
Titans, 4 yrs, $16 mil |
| Our Take: Though he fell off in 2008, Haye is still young, and the Titans' defensive line is well-coached. He's salvageable for this price. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Albert Haynesworth, DT |
Titans | Redskins, 7 yrs/$100 mil |
| Our Take: Washington makes a huge splash. If Jason Taylor's healthy, the 'Skins d-line is now a potentially dominant force. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Devery Henderson, WR |
Saints |
Saints, 4 yrs/$12 mil |
| Renaldo Hill, S |
Dolphins | Broncos, 4 yrs/$10 mil |
| Our Take: Thankfully, Denver picked up a defensive player to go with a host of offensive signings. Hill's a start toward rebuilding this unit. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Ike Hilliard, WR |
Buccaneers |
----- |
| T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR |
Bengals | Seahawks, 5 yrs/$40 mil |
| Our Take: The jury's out on Housh as a No. 1 WR, but Seattle needed to give it a shot. This means they don't have to gamble on Michael Crabtree. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Grady Jackson, DT |
Falcons | Lions, 3 yrs/$8 mil |
| Our Take: Detroit desperately missed Shaun Rogers in '08. This doesn't completely fill that gap, but it helps. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Bryant Johnson, WR | 49ers | Lions, 3 yrs/$9 mil |
| Our Take: Johnson's talent has been obscured in Arizona and S.F., but he can excel with Calvin drawing double teams. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Tank Johnson, DT |
Cowboys | Bengals, 1 yr |
| Adam "Pacman" Jones, CB |
Cowboys | ----- |
| Brandon Jones, WR |
Titans | 49ers, 5 yrs/$16.5 mil |
| Our Take: Apparently Jones is still living off of the hype he got in 2005, because that's the only way I can explain the deal. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Sean Jones, FS |
Browns | Eagles, 1 year |
| Our Take: Philly gets Brian Dawkins' replacement. Despite being hurt and on Cleveland, Jones had a decent 2008. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Cato June, LB |
Buccaneers |
Texans, 1 yr/$1.5 mil |
| Freddie Keiaho, LB |
Colts |
Colts, 1 yr |
| Chris Kemoeatu, OG | Steelers | Steelers, 5 yrs/$20 mil |
| Our Take: Rumored to go to the Jets, Kemoeatu stays with the Steelers, which was critical given their lack of O-line depth. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Pete Kendall, G |
Redskins | ----- |
| Jim Kleinsasser, TE |
Vikings | Vikings, 3 yrs/$9 mil |
| Byron Leftwich, QB |
Steelers | Buccaneers, 2 yrs |
| Paris Lenon, LB |
Lions | Patriots, 1 year |
| Jim Leonhard, S |
Ravens | Jets, 3 yrs |
| Our Take: This has been rumored since Rex took over as Jets coach. Leonhard was a revelation in '08, and Ryan obviously likes him. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Ray Lewis, LB |
Ravens | Ravens, 7 yrs/$22 mil |
| Our Take: It just wouldn't have seemed right to see Ray-Ray in a new uniform. Oh, and the Ravens keep their defensive leader. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Brandon Lloyd, WR |
Bears | ----- |
| Daniel Loper, OL |
Titans | Lions, 1 year |
| J.P. Losman, QB |
Bills | ----- |
| Marquand Manuel, SS |
Broncos | ----- |
| Chris McAlister, CB |
Ravens | ----- |
| Deuce McAllister, RB |
Saints |
----- |
| Justin McCareins, WR |
Titans | ----- |
| Bryant McFadden, CB |
Steelers | Cardinals, 2 yrs/$10 mil |
| Our Take: Considering McFadden was among the more-coveted guys left on the market, Arizona did well to get him cheap. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Willie McGinest, LB |
Browns | ----- |
| Brad Meester, C |
Jaguars | Jaguars, 4 yrs |
| Lawyer Milloy, S |
Falcons | ----- |
| Lance Moore, WR |
Saints |
Saints, 1 yr |
| Maurice Morris, RB |
Seahawks | Lions, 3 yrs/$7 mil |
| Our Take: Dare I say it? This feels like a smart, solid move for the Lions, and gives them someone to take the load off Kevin Smith. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Lorenzo Neal, FB |
Ravens | Raiders, terms unknown |
| Our Take: The Raiders make a lot of questionable moves, but this isn't one. Neal is a very solid blocker, and will pay dividends. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Mike Nugent, K |
Jets | Buccaneers, 1 yr |
| Igor Olshansky, DE |
Chargers |
Cowboys, 4 yrs/$18 mil |
| Our Take: Apparently life goes go on post-T.O., and Dallas did a nice job easing the loss of Chris Canty with Olshansky's signing. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Deltha O'Neal, CB |
Patriots |
----- |
| Dan Orlovsky, QB |
Lions |
Texans, 3 yrs/$9.5 mil |
| Our Take: The Texans like backups with embarrassing gaffes on their resume; first Rosencopter, now Orlovsky and his happy feet. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| J.T. O'Sullivan, QB | 49ers | Bengals, Terms unknown |
| Terrell Owens, WR |
Cowboys |
Bills, 1 yr/$6.5 mil |
| Our Take: I did not see this coming, and quite frankly, I don't get it. I doubt this puts Buffalo over the top, so why risk it? -- Chris Burke |
||
| David Patten, WR |
Saints |
Browns, Terms unknown |
| Chris Perry, RB |
Bengals |
----- |
| Mike Peterson, LB |
Jaguars |
Falcons, Terms unknown |
| Our Take: With Keith Brooking and Mike Boley gone, the Falcons fill the gap nicely with a talented, veteran backer. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Jermaine Phillips, S |
Buccaneers |
Bucs, Terms unknown |
| Our Take: Important move for Tampa, as it brings back its starting safety. Considering he was the best safety out there, this is a nice move. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Michael Pittman, RB |
Broncos | ----- |
| Jerry Porter, WR |
Jaguars | ----- |
| Keiwan Ratliff, CB |
Colts | Steelers, 1 yr |
| Darrell Reid, DT | Colts | Broncos, 3 yrs/$6.8 mil |
| Dominic Rhodes, RB |
Colts | Bills, 2 yrs |
| Tony Richardson, FB |
Jets | Jets, 1 yr/$500k |
| Our Take: The Jets made a smart move here. Richardson was an underrated reason why Thomas Jones so successful in 2008. -- Tom Herrera |
||
| Dewayne Robinson, DT |
Broncos | ----- |
| Koren Robinson, WR |
Seahawks | ----- |
| Jon Runyan, OT |
Eagles | ----- |
| James Sanders, S |
Patriots |
Patriots, 3 yrs |
| Our Take: An unspectacular yet steady safety, the Pats couldn't afford to let Sanders go given their tenuous depth at the position. -- Tom Mantzouranis | ||
| Bart Scott, LB |
Ravens | Jets, 6 yrs/$48 mil |
| Our Take: One of the best three-down 'backers available. Some worry he's a product of talent around him, but Rex Ryan knows him well. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Junior Seau, LB |
Patriots |
----- |
| Gerald Sensabaugh, S |
Jaguars | Cowboys, 1 yr |
| Our Take: Another smart move for Dallas. Sensabaugh will be a force in the 'Boys defensive backfield next season. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Darren Sharper, S |
Vikings | Saints, 1 yr/$1.7 mil |
| Kendall Simmons, G |
Steelers | ----- |
| Anthony Smith, S |
Steelers | Packers, 2 yrs/$1.485 mil |
| Our Take: This is a fine signing for now, but it becomes a really good one if Nick Collins and Atari Bigby hit the market next year. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Antonio Smith, DE |
Cardinals | Texans, 5 yrs/$35 mil |
| Our Take: Smith gives the Texans a stellar bookend to join Mario Williams. The Texans' defense just got much better. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Hunter Smith, P |
Colts | Redskins, terms unknown |
| L.J. Smith, TE |
Eagles | Ravens, 1 yr/$1.5 mil |
| Marvel Smith, OT |
Steelers | 49ers, 2 yrs |
| Terrelle Smith, FB |
Cardinals | Lions, 1 yr |
| Paul Spicer, DE |
Jaguars | Saints, 1 yr |
| Takeo Spikes, LB |
49ers |
49ers, 2 yrs/$6 mil |
| Shawn Springs, CB |
Redskins |
Patriots, 3 yrs/$10 mil |
| Our Take: What's this: a past-his-prime vet signing on with New England? That never happens. If Springs stays healthy, this will work well. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Jon Stinchcomb, OT |
Saints |
Saints, 5 yrs |
| Our Take: Keeping Stinchcomb means the o-line stays in tact, but the Saints had enough depth to let another team overpay. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Mark Tauscher, OT |
Packers |
----- |
| Fred Taylor, RB |
Jaguars | Patriots, 2 yrs/$5 mil |
| Our Take: Taylor's getting up there, but the Pats have had success making older backs effective, and Taylor's a good fit for this locker room. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Tra Thomas, OT |
Eagles | Jaguars, terms unknown |
| Our Take: Thomas is no longer a dominant lineman, but with Khalif Barnes likely leaving in free agency, the Eagles needed this boost. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Zach Thomas, LB |
Cowboys | Chiefs, terms unknown |
| Amani Toomer, WR |
Giants | ----- |
| Jonathan Vilma, LB |
Saints | Saints, 5 yrs/$34 mil |
| Our Take: A must-sign. Without Vilma, the Saints defense takes a leap backwards. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Derrick Ward, RB |
Giants | Buccaneers, 4 yrs/$17 mil |
| Our Take: There is no such thing as too many good backs, and I don't think there's much hope for Cadillac Williams anymore. -- Tom Mantzouranis |
||
| Kurt Warner, QB |
Cardinals | Cardinals, 2 yrs/$23 mil |
| Our Take: I'm not sure why this took so long, but Arizona must be glad it's done. This gives the Cards a shot at another Super Bowl trip. -- Chris Burke |
||
| Marcus Washington, LB | Redskins | ----- |
| Nate Washington, WR | Steelers | Titans, 6 yrs/$27 mil |
| Our Take: While Washington is a one-dimensional receiver, it's a dimension the Titans need. He does his job well. -- Tom Mantzouranis |

| Anthony Weaver, DE |
