Biggest Offseason Arrivals, Departures for Every NFL Team

Heading into the offseason, the 32 NFL teams combined to have $1.14 billion dollars in cap space to spend on free agents, per OverTheCap (h/t Business Insider). And as soon as the league year opened, NFL free agents got paid. Numerous big names such as Alshon Jeffery, Terrelle Pryor, DeSean Jackson and Calais Campbell signed with new teams and trade talks opened. 

The Super Bowl champion New England didn't sit on their hands after winning the Super Bowl, as they were able to snag Brandin Cooks and Dwayne Allen via trade and continued to add more starters in free agency.

With the draft quickly approaching, free agency has slowed down and most of the big-name players have been signed. Here is a comprehensive list of the biggest departure and arrival for each team.  

Arizona Cardinals

Ben Margot/Associated Press

Departure: DE Calais Campbell

After nine seasons in Arizona, Calais Campbell left this offseason to return home to the state of Florida to play with the Jaguars. Campbell racked up 56.5 sacks as a 5-technique in Arizona, a position that doesn't generally create large sack totals. He's been one of the league's most dominant interior players in the past decade, and he will be greatly missed in the middle of the Cardinals defense. 

As a 30-year old in 2016, Campbell played at an elite level, grading out as the second-best 3-4 defensive end in 2016, according to the NFL1000 scouts. While he had eight sacks last season, the Cardinals decided to move on after selecting Robert Nkemdiche in the first round in 2016. However, Campbell will be tough to replace in 2017. 

Arrival: SS Antoine Bethea

Antoine Bethea was cut by the 49ers in March and the Cardinals signed him to replace Tony Jefferson, who signed with Baltimore this offseason. Bethea will be 33 before the season begins, but he can still contribute in the NFL. He was the 16th-ranked strong safety in 2016, according to the NFL1000, and he played the most snaps (1,125) of any safety in the league. He's a drop-off from Jefferson, but he is still an average safety in the NFL. 

Atlanta Falcons

Charlie Riedel/Associated Press

Departure: LB Paul Worrilow

When he was healthy, Paul Worrilow was a tackling machine for the Falcons. However, most of those tackles happened down the field. After a groin injury sidelined him in 2016, he was quickly replaced by rookie Deion Jones and was never able to regain his starting role. 

Worrilow signed with the Lions to help replace DeAndre Levy. He's an underwhelming option at linebacker for the Lions as he graded out as the 43rd outside linebacker out of 46 in the NFL1000. The Falcons won't miss Worrilow and should be able to replace him on the depth chart easily through the draft. 

Arrival: DT Dontari Poe

Dontari Poe was one of the big names who happened to hit free agency, but his play has drastically dropped off the past few years. As excited as Falcons fans should be about the move, the team only gave Poe a one-year prove-it deal.

Poe has only accumulated 2.5 sacks over the past two seasons and seems to be wearing down. He graded out as the 25th defensive tackle in the NFL1000. Poe has had chronic back issues, which may have led to his decreased play. 

Poe will be asked to be the team's best run defender on early downs and will likely come off the field in obvious pass situations. It's a low-risk move for the Falcons, but he's not the same player he was in 2014. Poe is a big name who will provide only moderate production in 2017. 

Baltimore Ravens

Rick Scuteri/Associated Press

Departure: RT Ricky Wagner

The Ravens offensive line dropped off some in 2016, per Pro Football Focus, but Ricky Wagner was the second-best offensive lineman on the team behind only Marshall Yanda. Wagner is one of the best pass-blocking tackles in the NFL, but he's only an average run-blocker. The Lions gave him a five-year, $47.5 million dollar deal to be their new right tackle.

While Wagner is a formidable player, that's far too much for only an average right tackle. Wagner graded out as only the 21st right tackle in the NFL, according to the NFL1000. While the team will need a few weeks to get adjusted to Wagner's departure, there shouldn't be a big overall drop-off in 2017. The Ravens will use James Hurst to replace Wagner at right tackle. 

Arrival: SS Tony Jefferson

After signing the top safety in free agency in 2016 in Eric Weddle, the Ravens did it again in 2017 with Tony Jefferson. The Ravens signed the former Arizona Cardinal to a four-year, $34 million contract, which is the largest contract given to a safety in free agency. Jefferson is a nice fit in Baltimore as he's a dominant in-the-box safety who can match up with tight ends and running backs. 

Jefferson graded out as the eighth-best strong safety in the NFL1000, just two spots behind Eric Weddle. With the Ravens having Jefferson, Weddle and Lardarius Webb on their roster at safety, they have one of the best units in the NFL. All three can cover and play against multiple types of offenses, a key to success in today's NFL. Jefferson should have a massive impact on the Ravens defense right away. 

Buffalo Bills

Tony Gutierrez/Associated Press

Departure: CB Stephon Gilmore

Stephon Gilmore was the best cornerback on the free-agent market, and he decided to leave Buffalo after five seasons with the Bills. What hurts the most for the Bills is that he decided to leave Buffalo to join the division-rival New England Patriots. Gilmore wasn't a dominant player by any means, and his play drastically fell off in 2016, but he was still a better-than-average cornerback in the NFL.

He graded out as the 29th cornerback in 2016, but the Bills defense was so bad that it's hard to judge the cornerbacks fairly. The Bills still have Ronald Darby in their secondary and will likely add more talent to their cornerback group in a deep draft class. The loss of Gilmore hurts, but it's not a move that will cripple the Bills going forward.  

Arrival: DB Micah Hyde

While losing Stephon Gilmore hurts, the Bills did a nice job of replacing him with one of the most underrated, versatile defensive backs in the NFL, Micah Hyde. He received a five-year $30.5 million contract from the Bills to be their swiss-army knife in the secondary. Hyde will likely start out as a safety, but he can play outside or in the slot for the Bills. 

Hyde ranked 60th in cornerback rankings in 2016 for the NFL1000, but his best skill set comes as a matchup safety who can come down and play in the slot. At just 26 years old, Hyde is a nice replacement for Gilmore at a much cheaper price. It's not out of the equation that Hyde is a better player next year for the Bills. 

Carolina Panthers

Julie Jacobson/Associated Press

Departure: WR Ted Ginn Jr.

The Panthers have struggled to find the right receivers to pair with Cam Newton, but they've lost their most consistent receiver over the past two seasons. Ted Ginn is a flawed receiver, but he fit well with Newton as he was able to stretch the field with his speed. Over the past two seasons, Ginn scored 14 touchdowns for the Panthers and was a nice complement to Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess. 

The Panthers will have to replace Ginn and his speed early in the draft, but it's unlikely they will find anyone who can be as productive as him right away. 

Arrival: DE Julius Peppers

After spending his first eight seasons in Carolina, Julius Peppers left to play in Chicago and Green Bay for the past seven years. At age 37, he decided to come home to Carolina to help provide some rush from both defensive end spots.

Peppers has at least seven sacks in the past nine seasons, and a shift back to the 4-3 should only help extend his career. He can't be the No. 1 pass-rusher for a team anymore, but he can be a solid secondary rusher for the Panthers. This was a smart signing by the Panthers that could help their defense take the next step in 2017. 

Chicago Bears

Chris Szagola/Associated Press

Departure: WR Alshon Jeffery

Jay Cutler could also make a case for the biggest departure for the Bears, but Chicago had no interest in retaining him and he's still a free agent. However, the team's biggest departure was one of Cutler's favorite targets; Alshon Jeffery. The Bears did their best to keep Jeffery during the offseason, but he opted to take a one-year deal in Philadelphia in hopes of parlaying success in a different city into a long-term deal in 2018. 

The Bears have receivers who can replace Jeffery in Kevin White and Cameron Meredith, but Jeffery was a legit No. 1 wideout any time he was on the field. His weight issues and PED suspension caused Chicago to grow tired of him and decide to move on. The Bears will miss him, but it won't be hard to replace his production as he hasn't been the same receiver he was since 2013. 

Arrival: QB Mike Glennon

Many suspected that Tony Romo would be the highest-paid quarterback in free agency before his retirement, so it actually was former Tampa Bay Buccaneer Mike Glennon who received the largest contract. Glennon received a three-year, $45 million deal from the Bears to be their starting quarterback for at least the next year or two. Glennon isn't a franchise quarterback, but he's shown enough to be a starter in the NFL.

This signing doesn't mean the Bears won't select a quarterback in Round 1 of the 2017 draft, but it does provide the team insurance going into the season. Glennon will be given the chance to show that he's more than just a backup quarterback in the NFL with the Bears while potentially being a bridge to a rookie quarterback. 

Cincinnati Bengals

Jeff Haynes/Associated Press

Departure: LT Andrew Whitworth and LG Kevin Zeitler 

The biggest departure for the Bengals happened to be on their offensive line. Unfortunately, the team lost their two best offensive linemen during the same offseason. 

Both Andrew Whitworth and Kevin Zeitler left via free agency, and those are massive losses for the Bengals. Whitworth finished 11th and Zeitler 21st among their respective positions in the NFL1000. While neither had their best years in 2016, it's a brutal blow for the Bengals as their offensive line was the strength of their roster. 

Arrival: LB Kevin Minter

The Bengals lost Rey Maualuga in free agency and upgraded by adding former Arizona Cardinal Kevin Minter. He will provide a reliable option next to Vontaze Burfict and could help be a bridge to a rookie that the team selects in the 2017 draft. Minter graded as the 21st inside linebacker in the NFL1000. Minter is just an average player, but he's a positive add to the Bengals defense. 

Cleveland Browns

Winslow Townson/Associated Press

Departure: WR Terrelle Pryor

After struggling to find a role in the NFL, Terrelle Pryor finally found a home at receiver in Cleveland. Pryor eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards in 2016 after only accumulating 64 career receiving yards in his first five seasons in the NFL. It seemed like a forgone conclusion that Pryor would stay in Cleveland after growing up near the area and the Browns having nearly $100 million in cap space entering free agency. 

Instead, Pryor opted to sign with the Washington Redskins for a cheap one-year, $6 million deal, hoping to parlay another good season into a long-term deal. The Browns replaced Pryor with the more refined Kenny Britt, who will likely be the team's X-receiver heading into 2017. While Pryor is a loss, Britt may be more ready to contribute as a No. 1 receiver right away. 

Arrival: LG Kevin Zeitler 

One of the smartest moves of the offseason was the Browns' dedicating themselves to improving their offensive line via free agency. Not only did they sign guard Joel Bitonio to a long-term deal, the team also signed center J.C. Tretter and former Bengals guard Kevin Zeitler. Both give the Browns an upgrade inside and add more athleticism to the unit. The Browns have one of the league's best offensive lines on paper and could add to the group via the draft. 

Dallas Cowboys

Michael Perez/Associated Press

Departure: QB Tony Romo

The Cowboys have had one of the busiest offseasons in the league so far. After losing numerous key starters on both offense and defense, the team also released their franchise quarterback from 2006-2016, Tony Romo. 

While Romo has only started four games in the past two seasons, it is always tough to say goodbye to one of the franchise's best quarterbacks. The Cowboys will be fine in the future with Dak Prescott at quarterback, but losing Romo this offseason was by far the team's biggest departure.

Arrival: Nolan Carroll 

Not only did the Cowboys lose Romo, they also lost both of their starting cornerbacks in free agency in Morris Claiborne and Brandon Carr. To help fill their need at cornerback, Dallas signed former Philadelphia Eagle Nolan Carroll. He has the speed and playmaking ability to be a nice fit in Rod Marinelli's zone-heavy scheme, and the Cowboys will look to the draft to add more depth to the position. 

Denver Broncos

Ron Jenkins/Associated Press

Departure: OLB DeMarcus Ware

After the Broncos won the Super Bowl in 2016, they had a mass exodus in free agency, with numerous players leaving for massive deals. The team lost Peyton Manning, Brock Osweiler and Malik Jackson among others during the 2016 free-agency period. 

This year, it was a much quieter offseason as the team lost very few pieces in free agency. Their biggest loss was DeMarcus Ware, who opted to retire after numerous back and neck issues caused him to miss significant time over the past few years. While Denver will miss his veteran presence, the team will be able to replace him with former first-round pick Shane Ray.  

Arrival: LG Ronald Leary

The Broncos offensive line has been a mess over the past few years, but the signing of former Cowboys guard Ronald Leary should provide some stability to that offensive line. Leary is an athletic guard who thrives at the second level in the run game. Leary finished as the 23rd guard in the NFL1000 after opening the season as a backup behind La'el Collins. He will provide an immediate upgrade inside for the Broncos. 

Detroit Lions

Jeff Haynes/Associated Press

Departure: T Riley Reiff 

After being selected in the first round in 2012 by the Lions, Reiff played 77 out of 80 games, all at a high level. Reiff graded out as the seventh-best right tackle in the NFL in 2016, according to the NFL1000 scouts. Reiff signed with the division rival Minnesota Vikings and received top dollar to be the team's left tackle. A five-year, $58.75 million deal was far too much for the Lions to invest in a right tackle. 

Arrival: G T.J. Lang and T Ricky Wagner 

While Reiff was the Lions' biggest departure, they quickly moved to replace him with former Ravens tackle Ricky Wagner. Along with Wagner, the Lions signed former Packers guard T.J. Lang. While Wagner is a small drop-off from Reiff, Lang is a massive upgrade at guard. The Lions suddenly have one of the best offensive lines in the NFL, especially inside. 

Green Bay Packers

Charles Krupa/Associated Press

Departure: G T.J. Lang

Not only did the Packers lose their best offensive lineman in T.J. Lang, they also lost their center, J.C. Tretter. Lang was the eighth-rated guard in the NFL1000 and has been the Packers' swiss-army knife on the offensive line over the past few seasons. However, Lang will turn 30 this year and is coming off major foot and hip surgeries. While the injury history is scary, it still stings to lose one of the top players on the roster. 

Arrival: TE Martellus Bennett

The Packers needed to upgrade their tight end position after Jared Cook was just too up and down for the team's liking. Martellus Bennett is a much better fit in the Packers offense as he's one of the best blocking tight ends in the league. He also gives the team size and athleticism in the middle of the field.

Bennett graded out as the seventh-best tight end in the NFL1000 despite backing up Rob Gronkowski in New England during the 2016 season. He could be looking at the best statistical season of his career with Aaron Rodgers.  

Houston Texans

Eric Christian Smith/Associated Press

Departure: CB A.J. Bouye 

A.J. Bouye was a breakout player in 2016 for the Texans as he quickly became the best player in the Houston secondary. He quickly signed with the Jaguars in free agency to be the team's No. 1 cornerback. Bouye isn't going to take the ball away very often, but instead, he will blanket No. 1 receivers. The Texans have depth at cornerback, but losing their best player in the secondary will take some time to adjust to. 

Arrival: None

Tight up against the cap, the Texans haven't signed a free agent yet. The team was interested in Tony Romo if he would've become a free agent, per John McClain of the Houston Chronicle (h/t Pro Football Talk). However, after he retired the Texans decided to sit tight and wait until the draft to upgrade their roster. 

Indianapolis Colts

Winslow Townson/Associated Press

Departure: SS Mike Adams

The Colts didn't lose any major pieces this offseason, but their biggest departure was ball-hawk safety Mike Adams. At 36 years old, Adams was becoming a liability in man-to-man coverage for the Colts. He's just not athletic enough to play safety in the NFL at a consistent-enough level. Adams was one of the worst starters at strong safety in 2016, grading out at 30th at his position. It was time for the Colts to move on from Adams and get younger at the position. 

Arrival: DT Johnathan Hankins

Johnathan Hankins was the last big-name free agent to sign, and he decided to leave the Giants for the Colts. Hankins is one of the best run-stopping defensive tackles in the league, grading out as the 17th-best player at his position in 2017, according to the NFL1000. Hankins signed a three-year, $30 million deal that will take him to age 27. This move drastically helps improve the Colts defense, specifically in the middle.  

Jacksonville Jaguars

John Froschauer/Associated Press

Departure: SS Jonathan Cyprien 

The Jaguars' biggest departure of the offseason was strong safety Jonathan Cyprien, but he was quickly replaced by former Dallas Cowboy Barry Church. Cyprien was a below-average starter in 2016, finishing as only the 24th-rated strong safety in the final edition of the NFL1000. His replacement Church finished 10th, is a much more reliable tackler and can thrive as the team's box safety. 

Arrival: CB A.J. Bouye and DE Calais Campbell 

The Jaguars were able to secure two of the biggest names the free-agent pool had to offer. Not only did they sign cornerback A.J. Bouye from Houston and defensive end Calais Campbell from Arizona, they were also able to grab one of the best strong safeties on the market in Church. It was another massive haul for the Jaguars, who have one of the best rosters on paper, outside of quarterback. 

Neither Campbell nor Bouye are superstars, but they both can play at a Pro Bowl level in 2017. Bouye and Jalen Ramsey give the Jaguars one of the best cornerback tandems in the NFL. 

Kansas City Chiefs

Corey Perrine/Getty Images

Departure: DT Donatri Poe 

Dontari Poe has been one of the faces of the franchise in Kansas City over the past few seasons, but his play has declined since 2014. He played far too many snaps earlier in his career and a chronic back issue has limited the former first-round pick.

Poe's departure also had to do with a change in overall philosophy for the Chiefs. The team wanted more penetrating defensive tackles instead of pure nose tackles. Poe has since signed a one-year deal in Atlanta. 

Another big loss for the Chiefs was running back Jamaal Charles, who missed most of 2016 with a knee injury. While he hasn't been the same in the past few seasons, he is one of the best running backs in franchise history. He finished his career in Kansas City with over 9,000 total yards and 63 touchdowns. 

Arrival: DT Bennie Logan

One of the more underrated signings of free agency was the pickup of Bennie Logan by the Chiefs. Logan is a 27-year old run-stuffer who can provide more rush up the field than Poe. Logan's length and motor make him a nice fit in Kansas City's defense. He should be able to replace Poe's production fairly easily in his first year with the team. 

Los Angeles Rams

Winslow Townson/Associated Press

Departure: WR Kenny Britt

In one of the more shocking moves in free agency, the Rams decided not to re-sign their only consistent weapon in the passing game in Kenny Britt. Despite awful quarterback play all season long, Britt eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards on 68 catches. Britt is only 28 years old, and with no proven outside receiver on the roster, his departure from the Rams is curious to say the least. 

Arrival: LT Andrew Whitworth

One of the reasons the Rams offense struggled in 2016 was because of their pathetic offensive line. The team made it a goal to improve the offensive line in a big way heading in 2017. Andrew Whitworth is one of the best left tackles in the league, but his age (35) was one of the reasons he was on the market. While his game is declining, he is still a massive upgrade at left tackle over first-round bust Greg Robinson. 

Los Angeles Chargers

Jeff Haynes/Associated Press

Departure: RB Danny Woodhead

Outside of leaving San Diego to go to Los Angeles, the Chargers have had a quiet offseason so far. Their biggest loss of the offseason was receiving back Danny Woodhead to the Ravens. Woodhead tore his ACL in 2016, causing him to miss 14 games. But when he's healthy, he is one of the best third-down backs in the NFL.

In 2015, Woodhead caught 81 passes for 756 yards and scored nine total times. But with Melvin Gordon taking over the lead job for the Chargers, Woodhead decided to sign elsewhere. 

Arrival: LT Russell Okung 

For some time, the Chargers offensive line has been one of the worst units in the entire NFL. The team has taken steps to improve that weakness, the biggest of which was signing former Denver Broncos left tackle Russell Okung. At 28 years old, Okung is still one of the better left tackles in the NFL. He finished 15th among left tackles in the final edition of the NFL1000. The Chargers are hoping he can have another season like that in Los Angeles. 

Miami Dolphins

Wilfredo Lee/Associated Press

Departure: DE Mario Williams 

The Dolphins' biggest departure is the former No. 1 overall pick in the 2006 draft, Mario Williams. The Dolphins signed Williams in 2016, hoping he would be able to provide a consistent rush opposite Cameron Wake. But the 32-year old Williams struggled all season, only recording 1.5 sacks. He graded out as the 65th 4-3 defensive end out of 68 in the NFL1000 during the 2016 season. Williams remains unsigned. 

Arrival: LB Lawrence Timmons 

The Dolphins have struggled to find consistent linebacker play, but they may have found the right guy in free agency. Timmons has struggled in coverage over the past two seasons, but he's been one of the more reliable players in the NFL on a week-to-week basis. Timmons can stop the run and is an excellent blitzer. He should immediately upgrade the Dolphins' linebacker core. 

Minnesota Vikings

Andy Clayton-King/Associated Press

Departure: RB Adrian Peterson

Like the Dallas Cowboys, the biggest departure of the offseason for the Vikings was a player who hasn't contributed much over the past two seasons, Adrian Peterson. While Peterson has yet to sign with another team, the Vikings will still miss his presence. He's the greatest running back in franchise history and one of the team's best overall players. 

Arrival: RT Riley Reiff

The Vikings drastically needed to improve their offensive line, and they did so by signing former Detroit Lions tackle Riley Reiff. Reiff was a right tackle for the Lions, but he will likely be asked to make the switch to left tackle for the Vikings. Reiff is just one player, but it was a big step for the Vikings in improving their offensive line. 

New England Patriots

Rick Scuteri/Associated Press

Departure: CB Logan Ryan

The Patriots have lost numerous players this offseason, including Martellus Bennett and Chris Long among others. But their biggest loss was in their secondary with slot corner Logan Ryan. In four years as a starter, Ryan had 13 interceptions for the Patriots and was one of the most reliable tacklers in the secondary. But after the signing of Stephon Gilmore, there was no room at the inn for Logan Ryan.

Arrival: WR Brandin Cooks

The Patriots have made numerous big moves this offseason, including trading for Kony Ealy and Dwayne Allen and signing Stephon Gilmore. But their biggest move was trading their first-round selection for New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks. Cooks is a fantastic fit in the New England offense as he can play multiple spots, including the slot. 

Cooks is just 23 years old and has posted back-to-back 1,100-yard receiving seasons in New Orleans. He can be a deep-threat for the Patriots and/or a dynamic weapon after the catch. It is a safe bet that Cooks quickly becomes the No. 1 receiver in New England and surpasses 100 catches in 2017.  

New Orleans Saints

Duane Burleson/Associated Press

Departure: FS Jairus Byrd

The Saints haven't lost much in free agency as their only big departure was free safety, Jarius Byrd, who was released in order to free cap space. Byrd has yet to sign with a team and likely won't until after the NFL draft. Byrd is an injury-prone player who was benched in 2016 for rookie Vonn Bell. Byrd may need there to be an injury during training camp somewhere to find a job. 

Arrival: G Larry Warford 

The Saints continued to upgrade their offensive line by signing former Detroit Lions guard Larry Warford. Warford is a punishing guard who can hold up in the passing game as well. He graded out as the 27th-best guard in football, according to the NFL1000, and is a big improvement inside for the Saints. 

New York Giants

Marcio Jose Sanchez/Associated Press

Departure: DT Johnathan Hankins 

As free agency wrapped up, Johnathan Hankins was left on the market. Many thought he would eventually end up in New York with the Giants, but he decided to sign with the Colts instead on a three-year, $30 million deal to upgrade the interior of the team's defensive line.  

Hankins and Damon Harrison made for one of the best defensive tackle pairings in the league in 2016, but there was some redundancy between the two. Both excel in stopping the run while they generate only some pass rush. The Giants will miss Hankins in the middle, but Harrison should be able to fill the void.

Arrival: WR Brandon Marshall

After releasing Victor Cruz, the Giants needed to find another outside receiver to complement Odell Beckham Jr. and Sterling Shepard. Once Brandon Marshall was released by the Jets, the Giants quickly moved to sign the 33-year-old receiver.

Marshall will be an outstanding fit as a No. 2 receiver in the Giants' West Coast offense. He can still contribute in the NFL and graded out as the 23rd-best wide receiver in the NFL1000 in 2016. The Giants will have no shortage of weapons heading into 2017. 

New York Jets

Michael Ainsworth/Associated Press

Departure: WR Brandon Marshall 

The Jets are looking to get younger on offense, and that means moving on from older players such as Nick Mangold and Brandon Marshall. While Marshall was still a nice piece for the team, the Jets released him so that he could sign with a playoff contender. The Jets are left with Eric Decker as their No. 1 receiver, but he's another player who could be released after the draft. 

Arrival: CB Morris Claiborne

When healthy, Morris Claiborne is one of the best man-to-man corners in the entire NFL. He finished 18th in the NFL1000 for cornerbacks in 2016.  But he's rarely healthy, and that's why Dallas let him walk without offering a contract. Claiborne will be asked to replace Darrelle Revis as the team's No. 1 corner, and he should be able to handle that role if he's on the field. 

Oakland Raiders

David J. Phillip/Associated Press

Departure: RB Latavius Murray

The Raiders haven't officially added Marshawn Lynch, so the cupboard is bare at running back. Latavius Murray was a one-dimensional player for the Raiders in 2016, but he scored 12 touchdowns in 14 games. Murray was never able to be a full-time starter in Oakland, and it's left the team searching for other options at running back. 

Arrival: TE Jared Cook

Jared Cook was not able to live up to the hype in Green Bay, only catching 30 passes and one touchdown. However, he's a big upgrade for the Raiders as an athletic tight end who can stretch the seam and hopefully open up running lanes. Cook will again be a support piece in an offense, but he's a nice player as the fourth or fifth option in a passing attack. 

Philadelphia Eagles

Nam Y. Huh/Associated Press

Departure: DT Bennie Logan

One of the biggest losses for the Eagles this offseason was actually negated by the recent trade for Timmy Jernigan. Bennie Logan was a nice player for the Eagles in 2016, grading out as the 30th-ranked defensive tackle, according to the NFL1000. However, recently acquired Jernigan graded out as the 17th-rated 3-4 defensive end last year. The Eagles won't miss Logan in 2017. 

Arrival: WR Alshon Jeffery

For years, the Eagles have been searching for a legitimate No. 1 receiver on the outside. They may have finally found their outside receiver in Alshon Jeffery. He's an ideal fit in Philadelphia's quick-hitting West Coast offense. Jeffery doesn't have elite speed to stretch the field, but he's a bad-ball receiver who can win in contested areas of the field. He should provide a massive upgrade for the Eagles. 

Pittsburgh Steelers

Genevieve Ross/Associated Press

Departure: LB Lawrence Timmons

For 10 years, Lawrence Timmons was a starting linebacker in the Steelers defense. He was also one of the most reliable players on the team, only missing two games in his entire career. But Timmons decided not to return to Pittsburgh during the offseason. Instead, he returned to the state of Florida to play with the Miami Dolphins after starring for Florida State in college. 

Timmons' play has fallen off some as he graded out as the 29th inside linebacker, according to the NFL1000. He was becoming a liability in coverage and a player who was frequently targeted in their matchups with New England. Timmons was a great player in Pittsburgh, but his time at that lofty status has come and gone. 

Arrival: DE Tyson Alualu 

The Steelers hosted a number of high-profile free agents but failed to reel in any significant ones. Their biggest arrival was former Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman Tyson Alualu. He's a versatile lineman who will provide depth for the Steelers and their defensive line. He has only missed two games in his NFL career and he's a decent run defender. He will be a reliable backup for the Steelers. 

San Francisco 49ers

Michael Perez/Associated Press

Departure: WR Torrey Smith

After signing a massive free-agent deal in 2015 with San Francisco, the 49ers cut Smith after just two seasons, where he combined to catch only 55 passes. Smith was a massive disappointment, but new general manager John Lynch quickly moved on from the former regime's mistake. Colin Kaepernick could also be considered one of the bigger losses this offseason for the 49ers. 

Arrival: WR Pierre Garcon 

Once the 49ers moved on from Smith, they needed to grab a veteran receiver to help whichever quarterback the team decides to start. Garcon joins his former offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan in San Francisco. The last time the two were together, Garcon eclipsed 1,300 receiving yards on 113 catches. Garcon has a chance to be an exceptional player in the 49ers offense. 

Seattle Seahawks

Mike Roemer/Associated Press

Departure: K Steven Hauschka

One of the more surprising decisions this offseason was the Seahawks not only allowing Steven Hauschka to leave, but the fact they decided to let him enter free agency in the first place. Hauschka has been one of the more reliable kickers in the league since signing in Seattle, but a down year in 2016 could be the reason for his departure. Hauschka made 89 percent of his kicks in 2016 but only 82.9 percent of his extra points. The Seahawks replaced him with former Vikings kicker Blair Walsh. 

Arrival: RB Eddie Lacy

The Seahawks had talented running backs on their roster before adding Eddie Lacy, but none of them could provide the physical punishment that Lacy can. Lacy missed most of the 2016 season with a foot injury, but when he is healthy, he's one of the better running backs in the NFL. Lacy will need to keep his weight under control in order to see starter snaps in Seattle.

Departure: QB Mike Glennon

The Buccanneers haven't lost much in free agency, but backup quarterback Mike Glennon left to compete for a starting job in Chicago. Glennon was one of the best backup quarterbacks in the league, but paying him just wasn't realistic for the Bucs. 

Arrival: WR DeSean Jackson

One of the best pairings in free agency was DeSean Jackson joining forces with Mike Evans in Tampa Bay. Jackson will be a perfect complement to Evans as he can stretch the field and occupy safeties on every snap. He is still one of the best deep threats in the NFL and gives the Buccaneers a great receiving pair. The signing of Jackson should greatly help Jameis Winston.

Departure: CB Jason McCourty 

The Titans released McCourty last week as the team was looking to clear cap space before the draft. McCourty was the Titans' longest-tenured player. His play fell off in 2016 as he graded out as only the 33rd cornerback in the NFL, according to the NFL1000. He turns 30 this summer, but the Titans will miss his veteran presence in the secondary.

Arrival: CB Logan Ryan

To help shore up their secondary, the Titans signed former New England Patriots cornerback Logan Ryan. Ryan is one of the best tackling cornerbacks in the league and can thrive in the slot. Ryan created 13 interceptions in the past four seasons with the Patriots to go along with 164 solo tackles.

Ryan is best suited as a team's No. 2 cornerback, but his versatility and physicality will allow him to be successful no matter where he lines up. With the departure of Jason McCourty, Ryan will be relied upon to be the team's best secondary player right away.

Departure: WR DeSean Jackson

DeSean Jackson has been one of the best deep-threat receivers in the league since being drafted by the Eagles in 2008. Over the past three seasons for the Redskins, Jackson has averaged over 18 yards per catch in Washington. Jackson signed a three-year deal with the Buccaneers at the start of free agency to play opposite Mike Evans.  

Not only did the Redskins lose Jackson in free agency, they also lost Pierre Garcon, who has been a reliable target for Kirk Cousins. The Redskins receiving unit will look much different heading into 2017.

Arrival: WR Terrelle Pryor 

To replace DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon, the Redskins signed former Cleveland Browns receiver Terrelle Pryor. He's still a project on the outside, but his ceiling is higher than both of the receivers they let go. Pryor will be a nice fit in the West Coast offense eventually, but he will need time to adjust to Kirk Cousins and the scheme. Pryor signed a one-year deal worth $6 million.
