Big Names;Low Prices Still Available in Free Agency

Every year there are those veteran players that don't sign during free agency. Some of them will sign during the middle of the season because of an injury, but some have to call it quits.

This year in free agency, there seems to be more high-value players left even this late into the offseason. Here are a look at some top players still available in Free Agency.

1. Plaxico Burress, WR.

Burress was cut from the Giants because of off-field reasons. After shooting himself in the leg, his freedom in the near future is in question, and the Giants didn't feel they could wait.

They drafted North Carolina receiver Hakeem Nicks to take his place. But if Burress is able to play in 2009, he will be picked up quick.

Possible Landing places for Burress: Jets, Bears, Giants.

2. Levi Jones, OT.

Levi Jones' release surprised me a little. Yes, the Bengals drafted Andre Smith, but Jones could still help out on the right side. He could be picked up soon this week.

Possible Landing Places for Jones: Bills, Lions.

3. Pisa Tinoisamoa, LB

Tinoisamoa has been the Rams leading tackler for a couple seasons. He was cut because of injuries but could still be a threat to offenses if he is able to sign wit ha team.

Possible Landing Places for Tinoisamoa: Saints, Browns, Bills, Panthers.

4. Jason Taylor, DE.

The only reason Taylor is still left out in free agency is because of injuries. The Redskins acquired him for a second-round pick from the Dolphins, but injuries cut his season short. If Taylor can stay healthy, he could be a hot prospect again.

Possible Landing Places for Taylor: Patriots.

5. Marvin Harrison, WR.

Marvin Harrison said he is healthy and wants to play in '09. I'd give him a chance if I was a GM. I think he still has some juice left in him.

Possible Landing Spots for Harrison: Colts, Bears, Lions, Seahawks, Browns, 49ers, Jets, Giants.

6. Edgerrin James, RB.

James got his release from Arizona after they selected Chris Wells in the first round. Now with him being free to sign with any team, he may draw a lot of interest, as most teams in today's NFL want three solid options at running back.

Possible Landing Spots for James: Colts, Bengals, Texans, Browns. Broncos?...Just for laughs...

7. Derrick Brooks, LB.

Derrick Brooks is an NFL leader. He still has talent and could be a nice pick-up for any team.

Possible Landing Spots for Brooks: Rams, 49ers, Jets.

8. Warrick Dunn, RB.

Warrick Dunn has a nice season last year for the Buccaneers. I am surprised no one has picked him up yet, but he could still be a solid back in a 1-2 punch.

Possible Landing Spots for Dunn: Browns, Bengals, Seahawks.

9. Mark Tauscher, OT.

Tauscher was one of the top tackles in the league before the injury bug bit him. He had season-ending knee surgery last year, but if he gets back to 100 percent, he could be a big steal.

Possible Landing Spots for Tauscher: Packers, Lions, Texans, Bills.

10. Dre Bly, CB. 

Tough choice between Chris McAlister and Bly, but I think Bly makes it here because he wasn't released due injuries, he was released because of his age. But I think Bly has a good two years left in him to be a solid starter or nickle back for any NFL Team.

Possible Landing Places for Bly: Lions, Cowboys, Browns, Patriots, Raiders.

Other Notable Players:

Chris McAlister, CB. Deuce McCalister, RB. Amani Toomer, WR. Jon Runyan, OT. Rodney Harrison, S.
