NFL FREE AGENCY: MARKET REPORT




Which players will provide the returns of a summer blockbuster? And who are the potential big-money flops that will bring to mind Alexander (the movie, not the running back)? Vinnie Iyer rolls credits on the 2005 free agent class by positions.
• QB: Will Chargers move Brees?
• RB: Stocked with franchise backs
• WR: The fight to get Plax
• TE: Is Bubba Franks available?
• OL: Plenty of solid veterans
• DL: Is Pryce right in Denver?
• LB: Big names, bigger questions
• CB: Fight for the Law
• S: Darius could be moved
• Spec.: "Idiot kicker" for hire


Featured attraction: Donovin Darius, Jaguars. The premier intimidator and run defender at the position, he brings attitude and toughness to a secondary.


Latest update: The Jaguars tagged Darius their franchise player for the third consecutive off-season.


Also starring: Kenoy Kennedy, Broncos. He is the cheaper, equally hard-hitting alternative to Darius at strong safety.


Rising star: Dwight Smith, Buccaneers. He already is adept at covering receivers inside, and his run support will improve with experience.


Fading star: Sammy Knight, Dolphins. His limited speed and coverage skills hamper the big-play flair he once had.


Front office bomb: Idrees Bashir, Colts. He looks the part but hasn't produced. Overall, he has no outstanding skills.
