It'll be a buyer's market for free-agent receivers

Posted by Mike Florio on February 12, 2014, 11:40 AM EST

As teams begin to plan their eventual 53-man rosters, there are currently 53 receivers scheduled to be available in free agency. That’s the number of unrestricted and restricted free agents at the position who’ll be available as of March 11, barring a new contract with their current teams.

It’s bad news for the individual players, since it creates a team-friendly market. With so many wideouts looking for new homes, owners and executives will be able to squeeze agents into taking less.

The full list appears below. The most intriguing 10 names to watch are Anquan Boldin, Riley Cooper, Eric Decker, Julian Edelman, Jacoby Jones, Jeremy Maclin, Dexter McCluster, Hakeem Nicks, Emmanuel Sanders, and Golden Tate.

Nicks surely entered the season thinking that he could get the same five-year, $60 million package handed last year by the Dolphins to Mike Wallace. Nicks won’t get that from the Giants. On the open market, he may encounter teams who are concerned that his contract-year slump may not have been a one-year thing.

The list could grow, as more receivers are cut from their current contracts. One big name to consider in that regard is Wes Welker. The Broncos’ slot receiver will see his cap number double from $4 million to $8 million in 2014. That could be enough to prompt the Broncos to try to squeeze Welker to take less. If he doesn’t, he could be gone.

Likewise, Seahawks receiver Sidney Rice is expected to be dumped from the latter years of a big-money contract.

When the dust settles, the big winners could be the Patriots, who surely will be looking to bulk up at the position without spending a lot of money. Last year, they signed Sanders to an offer sheet. This year, they’d be able to add him without giving the Steelers a chance to match or compensation if they choose not to.

Of course I don't think his talent would erupt to that level - but is there anymore potential - of is he what he is??
Coming out of Houston, I really liked Avery's potential, but he's never played to the level I believed he was capable of achieving.

That is the result of a lack of focus and commitment.

He could eventually still find that focus and play to the level of his talent, but that's probably unlikely.

He'd be ok as a 4th receiver, but I would have no qualms should the Chiefs move on from him.

Some of it was surely on him but in fairness, Eli couldn't find his ass with both hands in 2013.

How about LaFell? Will the Panthers let him go? Too expensive?

His problem is with trying to stay healthy and like you said focus. I really thought highly of him but after seeing him drop so many easy passes and being unable to stay healthy throughout yet another season has me second guessing him.

Hmmm...I didn't know Emmanuel Sanders was a FA.

If we were going the FA route, he's who I'd want, in order:

Jeremy Maclin (Eagles)
James Jones (Packers)
Emmanuel Sanders (Steelers)

I think I've seen James jones catch one ball. I'm guessing he's decent? Sanders didn't look terrible for the abortion of a team the steelers were.

There are also about 25 receivers in this class that have a third round or higher grade.

Now reason not to double dip and really bolster the position this offseason. Give Alex Smith the best weapons of his career and see what these guys can do to make a run at giving Peyton some unhappy endings.

Push those chips in and lets play ball.

Also sign Hester if the price is right... Guessing it won't be but wanting to be used like McCluster and back with his ST's coach wouldn't shock me.
