Here's a look at the updated list of the best available free agents on defense as of Monday.
Defensive End Dwight Freeney/UFA (exclusive franchise player) Justin Smith/UFA (franchise player) Charles Grant/UFA (franchise player) Jared Allen/RFA - He asked to be traded but that's unlikely to happen. Their
pass rush isn't very good to begin with and they can't afford to deal Allen.
Grant Wistrom/UFA - Because the list of decent pass rushers is dwindling,
Wistrom should be able to find a job as a third end or better for a team. Bobby McCray/RFA - He's coming off of a very good season and should attract
interest next year as a UFA.
Courtney Brown/UFA - This could be it for the oft-injured end. Al Wallace/UFA Josh Thomas/RFA Darrion Scott/RFA
Spencer Johnson/RFA Nick Eason/UFA Marcellus Wiley/UFA Tony Bryant/UFA
Adrian Dingle/UFA Carl Powell/UFA Mark Word/UFA Rodney Bailey/UFA Brandon Green/UFA Joe Tafoya/UFA Kemp Rasmussen/UFA
