As the and prepare for Super Bowl LVII, the 30 teams not playing in the Big Game are preparing for the 2023 season. The league still has one more game to go before the crazine s of the NFL offseason begins, especially with free agency le s than two months away and Harry Giles III Jersey the draft le s than three months away.The NFL offseason won't be short of drama either, especially after the free-agent frenzy that existed last year. Teams will try to ante up to improve their roster to reach the Super Bowl and compete with the Eagles and Chiefs going forward. This free agent season will certainly focus on the quarterbacks, as there may be significant movement among signal callers around the league.With the offseason just weeks away, these are the top storylines to keep an eye on going forward:For the third time in the last four offseasons, the NFL world was revolving on Tom Brady and what he wanted to do next season. The soon-to-be 46-year-old Brady had a few options to consider, including and taking the 10-year, $375 million contract with Fox. He hasn't announced what's next, but we do know he won't be playing anymore. Brady did retire last season, but that lasted for 40 days and he decided to return to the . It seems like this time it's gonna stick.Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have been playing the dancing game for the last two offseasons, which has led to Rodgers being the highest-paid quarterback in the league and the Packers trading away his best pa s catcher in . With the Packers having entering the final year of his rookie deal, will Green Bay and Rodgers finally decide to part ways?The hired Nathaniel Hackett as their offensive coordinator in an attempt to lure Rodgers and the Las Vegas Raiders do have Adams in case Rodgers wants to reunite with him. There will certainly be a bidding war for Rodgers on the trade market, especially since he has two years remaining on that three-year, $150 million deal. Lamar Jackson's future with the Ravens is as uncertain as they come, especially as both sides were unable to come to a long-term deal prior to the quarterback's self-imposed deadline before the season. The Ravens can certainly franchise Jackson this offseason and try to work out a long-term deal, but does Jackson even want to be in Baltimore at this point?The Ravens certainly didn't help Jackson out by providing him with pa s catchers this season, Harry Gilles III Jersey going with Jackson's strengths with a run-first offense for his entire Ravens tenure. Baltimore moved on from longtime offensive coordinator Greg Roman as a result and will seek Jackson's input on finding a new offensive coordinator.Jackson's short-term future in Baltimore appears safe unle s the Ravens decide not to pay him the lucrative extension he wants and move on. Then things get interesting regarding Jackson, regarding where he wants to play, how much he wants, and how much Baltimore can get for him. The Raiders will be moving on from Derek Carr this offseason, but which team will Carr be going to? Will Carr be the consolation prize after the fates of Brady, Rodgers, and Jackson are decided -- or will Carr be the first domino to fall?Since Carr has been with the Raiders, the franchise has had the worst scoring defense in the NFL. With Carr getting a second chance with a new franchise, will a more competent defense get out the best in him? Carr was the franchise quarterback the Raiders lacked since Rich Gannon, yet couldn't get the Raiders a playoff victory even though they were respectable.How much is Carr worth too? What will teams be willing to pay him? With Carr on the market, it will be interesting to find out which teams make the jump at him first. The Eagles arguably have the best roster in the NFL, steamrolling their opponents through the regular season and the playoffs in advancing to the Super Bowl. Not all of these players are guaranteed to return for the 2023 season, as several key performers are free agents. Caleb Swanigan Jersey , , C.J. Gardner-Johnson, , , , , and are the key starters who are free agents this coming March. That's a lot of good players the Eagles would have to retain -- and Philadelphia can't keep them all with the cap space available.The Eagles will have to get creative with the salary cap again and retain the players who are part of the long-term future. This team definitely won't be the same as the NFC championship squad. San Francisco basically made its decision on before the season when the 49ers decided to go with in camp. They reworked Garoppolo's contract for 2022, allowing him to walk in free agency in 2023. Garoppolo e sentially took the job after Lance was injured and lost for the season, only to get injured himself midseason -- and replaced by .Purdy injured his UCL in the NFC Championship Game, a blowout that showcased the 49ers may be a superstar quarterback away from winning the Super Bowl. With , , and in tow -- it's important for the 49ers to maximize all the skill players at their disposal.Does San Francisco think Purdy is the answer for 2023, or do the 49ers double down Jaylen Adams Jersey on their investment with Lance? With Brady and the other free-agent quarterbacks available be tempting enough to move on from both? San Francisco has a tough decision to make, one that will be the difference between winning the Super Bowl or fizzling out in the postseason.Saquon Barkley is the cream of the crop among the loaded running back cla s in free agency, yet how much will he command from the Giants? Barkley has said he doesn't want to set the market for running backs, even though he will be the standard after his best season since his rookie year.While Barkley isn't the same player he was five years ago, he's still a player opposing defenses have to key on. The Giants offense was lost without Barkley at times in 2022, yet will New York pay $10 million or more for its best offensive player. The Giants have the cap space but have other pre sing matters on offense to addre s. Barkley doesn't have to be the first domino to fall, but he'll be in high demand., and are all due for lucrative extensions this coming offseason, especially with Burrow and Herbert having fifth-year options exercised this year. Hurts doesn't have a fifth-year option since he was a second-round pick, meaning his extension from the Eagles may come sooner rather than later.Aaron Rodgers earns the highest average annual salary for a quarterback at $50,271,667, which is certain to be broken after received $49 million and $46.1 million the previous offseason. Burrow and Herbert are set to reset the market and Hurts won't be too far behind them. will be in the mix for an extension too, with a fifth-year option incoming.The quarterback market is going to be reset with this talented cla s.There are plenty of talented running backs set to hit the open market, but how much are these players worth? Saquon Barkley, , Miles Sanders, , , , , , , , and are the notable names who will be free agents.There are a lot of good players available for teams, but will these franchises go into a bidding war for some of these players? Will teams lowball some of these backs and let the market play out until the draft -- or after the draft? Teams are going to seek the running back they want, but running backs are proving to be a better value on a rookie deal instead of paying a player big money on his second contract.Will the same hold true this offseason? Derrick Jones Jr. Jersey There are a lot of good players available. |
