We are through the bulk of 2023 NFL free agency. Teams have been agreeing to deals with unrestricted free agents and re-signing their own players since March 13, when the legal tampering period opened. Now that the new league year has begun, those deals can be made official. We tracked all of the action, including free agent signings, notable trades, cap-saving releases and more.
This free agent class is loaded with playmakers on offense and defense, and we’ve already seen a bunch of high-end players find new teams. Orlando Brown Jr. — our top free agent for this year — has signed in Cincinnati, but many solid players are still out there. We’ve also seen a few trades, including Darren Waller to the Giants and Brandin Cooks to the Cowboys.
Who are the best remaining free agents?
There are still some good players available who might be looking for new homes. Matt Bowen is keeping a running list of the top remaining names. Here are the current top three:
1. Bobby Wagner, ILB
2. Odell Beckham Jr., WR
3. Yannick Ngakoue, DE

C Hassenauer visiting Giants
The New York Giants have center J.C. Hassenauer in for a visit on Wednesday, a source told ESPN’s Jordan Raanan. He spent the past four years with the Pittsburgh Steelers and appeared in 45 games with seven starts.
The Giants are looking to add depth at center after allowing Jon Feliciano and Nick Gates to walk.
