NFL Free Agents Could Make Decent Expansion Team

The following roster is all the free agents available this summer... Probably could beat last years Lions...

Offense

QB: Brett Favre... Other options: Rex Grossmanand J.P. Losman.
RB: Edgerrin James – His once-great burst is gone, but he’s still workmanlike. Other options: Warrick Dunn, Deuce McAllisterand Rudi Johnson.
FB: Cecil Sapp Better athlete than most fullbacks, but still nothing special.
TE: Ben Troupe Best from a mediocre offering. Other options: Mark Campbell and Dan Campbell.
No. 1 WR: Plaxico Burress – Legal issues are holding him up, but he’ll play.
No. 2 WR: Amani Toomer Only 16 months ago, Toomer and Burress helped win a Super Bowl. Other options: Marvin Harrison, Drew Bennett and Joe Jurevicius.
LT: Levi Jones Injuries curtailed a nice career, but he’s still only 29.
LG: Mark Tauscher He’s a tackle, but could easily switch inside.
C: Jeremy Newberry His knees are bad, but they have been forever.
RG: Pete Kendall Smart, tough, but a lot of mileage.
RT: Jon Runyan – Biggest if of an iffy group. His knee still isn’t healthy. Other O-line options: Fred Miller, Jonas Jennings, Wayne Gandy, Melvin Fowler and Jason Whittle.

Defense

DE: Kalimba Edwards He’s 33 and banged up, but still has some pass-rush skill.
DE: Ebenezer Ekuban Pretty nice pass rusher still out there on the market.
DT: Kevin Carter Amazing longevity, productivity and versatility.
DT: Ellis Wyms Has his limitations, but is a very tough player.Other D-line options: Dewayne Robertson, John Engelberger and La’Roi Glover.
LB: Morlon Greenwood At 31, he’s one of the youngest starters.
LB: Pisa Tinoisamoa A tackle machine, but he better play in a two-gap system.
LB: Derrick Brooks – Still can bring great leadership to a young defense. Other options: Napoleon Harris, Paris Lenon, Antwan Peek and Nate Webster.
CB: Chris McAlister Coming off injury and has lost speed, but still very physical.
CB: Ty Law Perennial late-signee can still make a couple of plays if the offense isn’t careful. Other options: Jason Craft, Dre Bly, Deltha O’Neal and Roderick Hood.
SS: Lawyer Milloy Years of physical play have taken their toll, but he’s really smart.
FS: Dexter Jackson Has lost a step, but who on this team hasn’t? Other safety options: Mike Brown, Michael Boulware, Kevin Kaesviharn and Will Demps.
