#4 Todd Gurley: Running Back

Former NFL sensation Todd Gurley plays at one of the positions in which youth is a major asset at running back. The former first-round pick (10th overall) of the then-St. Louis Rams is one of the best running backs available. He is the sixth amongst active players with 67 career rushing TDs and 10th in rushing yards with 6,082 yards.

Gurley is a two-time All-Pro and offensive player of the year who has three seasons of 1,000 yards rushing. He led the NFL in rushing TDs for two straight years (2017 and 2018). By the way, he is 27-years-old and accomplished all of the above.

One team that stands out is the Baltimore Ravens, one of the best running teams in the NFL right now. Despite cutting running back Le’Veon Bell recently, Gurley would be a welcome addition to the Ravens. Either way, Gurley should be the most sought-after running back in the free-agent market.


#5 Olivier Vernon: Defensive End

Seeing defensive end Olivier Vernon available is a bit of a shock but it may be due to him his Achilles last year. The former 30-year-old third-round pick of the Miami Dolphins in 2012 is still on the free agent market as he continues to heal from his injury. In his four years with the Dolphins, he had 29 sacks and 47 tackles for loss. There are three NFL teams that come to mind that could use the services of the Pro Bowler.

The Baltimore Ravens defense is not the defense that we are used to seeing. One such reason is their defensive line. They do have six-time Pro Bowler Calais Campbell but he is 35-years-old, recording just half a sack in nine games this year. His old team, the Cleveland Browns, could use a player to bookend with the league’s sack leader, DE Myles Garrett. Finally, imagine Vernon playing on the defensive line for the Buffalo Bills with Gregory Rosseau and Mario Addison.
