The best of the best of the 2024 free agency

1. Atlanta Falcons: Sign Kirk Cousins

The Atlanta Falcons made headlines by signing veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins to a three-year deal. Cousins, formerly with the Minnesota Vikings, brings experience and stability to a Falcons team in need of a steady hand at quarterback. His presence is expected to enhance Atlanta’s offensive capabilities and provide leadership for their young roster.

2. Steelers: signing QB Justin Fields

The Steelers may require a quarterback change in the future, but currently they have made a strategic move to enhance their growth potential, and they managed to do so without incurring significant costs.

3. Chiefs: sign WR Marquise Brown

In most other teams, Brown would be considered more of a secondary receiver. However, the Chiefs have signed him to a one-year, $7 million contract with the expectation that he will prove himself.

4. Arizona Cardinals: drafting WR Marvin Harrison Jr.

The Cardinals secured a dominant No. 1 wideout for Kyler Murray by selecting “Maserati Marv.” Harrison Jr. brings ideal size, speed, quickness, and strength, reminiscent of Larry Fitzgerald.

5. Baltimore Ravens: Signing RB Derrick Henry

Henry’s arrival provides the Ravens with a durable veteran hammer for their run-heavy offense. He complements Lamar Jackson’s dynamic play and opens up the field.

6. Buffalo Bills: Drafting WR Keon Coleman

The Bills reshuffled their receiving corps, and Coleman—a potential No. 1 receiver—fits perfectly with Josh Allen. His size, hands, and speed make him an exciting additio.

7. Carolina Panthers: Trading for WR Diontae Johnson

Johnson’s reliable route-running pairs well with QB Bryce Young. The Panthers set the stage for drafting speedy deep threat Xavier Legette, enhancing their passing attack.

8. Chicago Bears: Drafting QB Caleb Williams

The Bears may have finally solved their franchise QB issue. Williams, a transcendent athletic talent with a strong arm, brings hope to Chicago’s offense.

9. Houston Texans: Acquiring DE Danielle Hunter

Hunter bolsters the Browns’ pass rush and defensive line, adding depth and impact to their defense. He is the big quarterback-chaser that can make a defense win.

10. Bears: Acquire WR Keenan Allen

Even though he is 32 years old, he is adding a significant amount of value to the team in return for a fourth-round choice.

From high-profile quarterback signings to key defensive additions, these top 10 offseason moves have set the stage for an exciting and unpredictable NFL season. The year hasn’t started but it is already looking like the coming year will be a good one.
