Jets: Throwing to Garrett Wilson seems like a great thing, but the Jets will still try to identify as a run-first offense unless their quarterback play is spectacular.Plus the defense might be slow to rebound, thus leading to some shootout games. Falcons: There remains oodles of potential with Kyle Pitts and Drake London, and resourceful playcaller Arthur Smith wouldn't adamantly run the ball if he had a quarterback he completely trusted.Michael Thomas' expected departure and Taysom Hill gobbling up scoring chances are not. Saints: Speedy receivers and a bulked-up O-line are strengths.Buccaneers: The O-line figures to get altered, but if it's done right and they don't drop Mike Evans then there's still a very potent offense here for a quarterback to do well with.Josh McDaniels' playcalling skills are a benefit. Raiders: Easily the best trio of receivers to throw to among the possible destinations, and a defense that seems perpetually a year away from being good will force plenty of passing.He's not a lock to get picked in the fall. He was in a great situation last year in Las Vegas and still failed to average even 18.0 Fantasy points for the second straight season. Just remember: It's been a long, long time since he's been a steady Fantasy starter. Carr's already been linked to old pal Dennis Allen and the Saints, but any other team in need of a passer could get into the sweepstakes to land Carr. The Raiders closed the book on Carr before Week 17, so there's seemingly no turning back there. ![]() Most definitely will change teams: Derek Carr The better the landing spot, the more likely Rodgers becomes a consensus late-round draft pick in spite of his ugly 2022. He's been linked to the Raiders (they have cap space) and the Jets (they'd need to make cap space), but there are others who could make a move. They could restructure his deal (again) and make it more manageable for another go-round in 2023, or they could trade him and get his lofty contract off their books and turn to the future with Jordan Love. The Packers have a salary cap problem if they keep Rodgers at his current price tag. Most likely to change teams: Aaron Rodgers Expect him to be a top-8 Fantasy quarterback no matter where he goes. Jackson has been below 23.0 Fantasy points per game in his past two seasons and would benefit greatly from some help at receiver. It wouldn't make sense for the Ravens to trade Jackson unless they had some fantastic plan to overhaul their entire offense (they will already have a new offensive coordinator in 2023). Jackson is most likely going to get franchise-tagged and stay in Baltimore for his age-27 season. The sharp Fantasy managers see the domino effect in the offseason and apply it to their drafts. And remember: every move has a domino effect, some larger than others. So look along, and keep track of the action right here. They could become free agents if their teams cut them, of course. Under each position below you'll see a table of players names sorted by two headings: The list of actual free agents and the list of those who MIGHT change teams despite not being free agents. This is why we list the key free agents at each position along with the players who might get cut or traded because they make too much money (or they're just not part of the team's plans anymore, or both). Offseason moves tell the story of how a team views itself and it begins in earnest at this time. Or it might mean a philosophical change in direction. When a team cuts a player, it might signal that they believe said player is no longer any good. ![]() This is when we learn from team's actions, not necessarily their coaches and players' words. It's an important time for Fantasy managers also. Teams must adhere to the salary cap and be able to "fit" their players' contracts under the nearly $225 million mark. This means we better be ready for the first part of the new league year where new contracts can be signed and trades can be executed. And technically speaking, that year doesn't start in September when the regular season kicks off, nor does it begin when training camp starts or when the NFL Draft is over. When the Super Bowl ends, the countdown begins toward the next NFL year.
