Remaining unrestricted free agents

Any Interest?
Top 20 remaining unrestricted free agents via Yahoo

1. RB Cedric Benson: Benson posted his third straight 1,000-yard rushing season last year, proving to be durable after injury problems and rumors about his toughness emerged early in his career. Although all running backs wear out, Benson's late emergence indicates he appears to have time on the clock.

2. DE Andre Carter: He had 10 sacks in 14 games before a quad injury knocked him out for the rest of the season. Carter's career has been up and down, but anybody who's capable of double-digit sacks will be working if he wants to.
3. OT Marcus McNeill: McNeill is only 28, so he still has plenty of time to resurrect his once-promising career. Injuries have cost him a lot of his range and he was never the toughest guy, but the potential is there.

4. WR Plaxico Burress: Forty-five receptions, 13.6 yards per catch and eight touchdowns were good numbers for a guy coming back after two years out of the game, particularly with Mark Sanchez as his quarterback. If Randy Moss produces those kinds of numbers this season, the 49ers will be happy. Burress can still play, he's just not going to make a lot.

5. WR Legedu Naanee: He has never really emerged as the possession receiver so many coaches believed he could become, but he had a respectable 44 catches last season with Carolina. He's tough and has solid hands.

6. WR Braylon Edwards: The decline of Edwards continued last season. He was in a one-year, make-good situation and couldn't get through the campaign because of injuries and a bad attitude. Still, somewhere underneath it all, the ability is there.

7. CB Andre' Goodman: Like many guys out there right now, Goodman is on the wrong side of 30 (he'll turn 34 in August). Still, he did a solid job last season. In a league in desperate need of corners, Goodman will have a job soon.

8. TE Dallas Clark: The word on the street is that Clark, who was such a dynamic force in his prime with Indianapolis, is done. Maybe a good offseason of rest will help. Getting a tight end who knows how to work the middle is a valuable commodity.

9. TE Jeremy Shockey: He seemed to be living by the Neil Young creed that it's better to burn out than fade away, but most guys like the money too much to simply walk into the sunset. Shockey can still play and there's always a need for receiving tight ends.

10. S Yeremiah Bell: His body can't take being on special teams and starting anymore, but that's what happens to everybody. If he's restricted to one or the other as a primary task, he still has some miles left in the tank.

11. DE Shaun Ellis: His production nosedived last season as he finished with only 14 tackles and a career-low one sack. Still, finding a 12-year veteran who can play end in a 3-4 or a 4-3 is not easy. Ellis is at the stage of his career when he will still be in demand come late August, after he’s had ample time to rest.

12. DE Matt Roth: Roth is your prototype journeyman, a guy with just enough ability to have a solid role on any team, but not a guy who will ever be a star. He has had at least 3½ sacks in each of the past six years, but never more than five.

13. DT Aubrayo Franklin: Run-stopping defensive tackles can last forever in the NFL. At 31, Franklin is going to get another chance to play for someone after a disappointing season in New Orleans. He was once considered a standout while in San Francisco. That's likely over, but his career shouldn't be.

14. OL Kareem McKenzie: He's big, smart and tough. He can play either right tackle or right guard. There's a shortage of good offensive linemen in the NFL. Enough said.

15. C Jason Brown: Once upon a time, Brown was the highest paid center in the league. Then St. Louis found out that he was a bit "high maintenance," and he got released after three years of the contract. He's still talented, but he better get his act together.

16. S O.J. Atogwe: He was once considered a franchise player when he was in St. Louis. After one season in Washington, he was fungible.

17. S Jim Leonhard: Each of his past two seasons have ended in injury and he's not exactly a physical specimen at 5-foot-8. However, if you ask Rex Ryan, he'll tell you that few players are as smart as Leonhard and that's valuable in the secondary.

18. P Mat McBriar: He ended last season on injured reserve and posted the third-worst career average of his career at 43.8 yards a punt last season. However, he's only one year removed from being a Pro Bowler and he's not even 33. In punting age, he's just reaching his prime.

19. G Chilo Rachal: A one-time starter for San Francisco who lost his job last season. He has the size and speed to be much better than he is and he's only 26.

20. TE Scott Chandler: He's good enough as a receiver and as an in-line blocker to leave on the field most of the time. But he's never a real threat to hurt a defense.

 

Nanee signed with Miami...

 

McBriar, I would consider.

Roth would fit.

 

Grit signing

 

I'd take a few of those guys if the Panthers had enough cap room, but they don't.

 

Carter had a quad injury that needed surgery towards the tail end of last year, I bet that's why he hasnt signed yet

 

Yeah but at least we got that great deal on Godfrey right? Amiright?

 

I don't want any of these guys.

 

Naane has solid hands?

 

decent hands catching +, good hands for holding -

no RAC at all -
