The cupboard is mostly bare if you’re an NFL team looking for veteran help this summer. The typical free agent frenzy in March, followed by the low-simmer of pre-draft additions, has left a barren marketplace for teams in need of proven contributors.
That doesn’t mean there aren’t some good players still looking for jobs. Teams in need of an edge rusher can find a 28-year-old coming off a 9.5-sack season. Offenses in search of a powerhouse out of the backfield have their pick of former 1,000-yard rushers. And, since we can’t count him out after last year, a 45-year-old Tom Brady merely *says* he’s retired.
