NFL training camps are expected to open July 28 and there are a handful of free agents still waiting for deals. You have guys like Lesean McCoy just hoping to get that call for a couple more years and then you have guys like Jadeveon Clowney just waiting for teams to put their final offers on the table as a bidding war has broken out for his services.
Clowney is clearly the big prize still out there. The Browns, Seahawks and Raiders are reportedly teams that have offered him deals, but the Raiders offer might be the weakest of the two or three out there.
Let’s take a look at guys still available and their recent body of work:
