The former No. 14 overall pick played at every offensive line position other than center while on his rookie contract, though most of his reps have come at the two guard spots. He most recently started all 15 games of his 2024 campaign at right guard. Vera-Tucker was supposed to play out his fifth-year option with the Jets in 2025, but a torn tricep in practice just before Week 1 ended his season before it began. AVT has a lengthy injury history. He has only played more than seven games in two-of-five years. On the other hand, he has generally played well when healthy, and the Pats needed to keep adding talent to their offensive line.

Thornton caught 19 passes for a career-high 438 yards and three touchdowns as the Chiefs’ deep ball receiver in 2025. The Chiefs’ receiving cupboard is bare but Thornton at least had a connection with Patrick Mahomes on deep targets. He returns to Kansas City on a two-year deal and will be in the mix for WR4 on the Chiefs’ depth chart in 2026. For fantasy purposes, Thornton will be a boom-or-bust dart throw again, but the Chiefs’ wide receiver moves later in the offseason will shape his value.

Per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the deal features $15 million guaranteed. Gilman landed in Baltimore last year in the grade that sent Odafe Oweh to the Chargers. He immediately took to the defense, starting all 12 games that he was on the Ravens. Gilman finished the year with nine pass breakups and one interception, which he took to the house. Gilman will take on a starting role in Kansas City out of the gates.

The Panthers are giving Lloyd $25 million guaranteed in the deal. Lloyd has been starting in the middle of the Jaguars’ defense since getting drafted in the first round four years ago. He tallied five interceptions, including a 99-yard interception return for a touchdown, en route to a Pro Bowl selection and second-team All Pro honors last season. PFF graded the 27-year-old with an 89.1 overall grade for 2025, good for No. 3 among linebackers. The Panthers add an all-round starter for $15 million per year in Lloyd.

The Saints restructured Kamara’s contract last week, making it easier for them to move on from him this offseason if they choose to do so. They then signed Travis Etienne to a four-year, $52 million contract on the opening day of the legal tampering period. The Saints couldn’t make it more obvious that they are moving on from Kamara if they tried. The bigger question is whether he will retire or continue to play football on a new team. Schefter added that teams are tracking the situation, meaning there will likely be some GMs interested in signing or trading for Kamara if he doesn’t hang up the cleats. Kamara is best suited for primarily pass-catching duties at this point in his career, but plenty of teams could find a role for him in 2026.

Dowdle will presumably form a one-two punch with incumbent starter Jaylen Warren in Pittsburgh after notching consecutive 1,000-yard seasons for the Cowboys and Panthers. It also signals a level of discomfort with former third-round pick Kaleb Johnson, who played sparingly during his rookie season following multiple special teams miscues. The financials of the contract were not immediately made available. Although unlikely to match the 235 carries he averaged the previous two seasons, Dowdle’s size and frame keep his touchdown equity high on the run-first Steelers.

Per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the deal is worth “up to” $10 million. It doesn’t necessarily exclude the Bears from taking a tackle in the draft, but it does allow them to kick that can down the road if they want to spend their capital elsewhere. Jones started four games at left tackle to open the 2025 season before a knee injury effectively ended his season. He was designated to return from injured reserve ahead of the playoffs but was never officially activated. The 2026 season will be a prove-it year for Jones.

The Jets took a chance on Williams following an injury-riddled first two seasons with the Jaguars, paying off handsomely before an injury-shortened 2025 season. Williams had the worst statistical season since his rookie year in 2019 last year but will now get a change of scenery with the new, team-friendly contract as he looks to rekindle his previous form with a new franchise.

The deal has a max value of $12 million. Bourne has been a consistent depth receiver throughout his career, most recently catching 37 passes for 551 yards for the 49ers in 2025. He has cracked 500 yards three times in nine seasons, profiling best as WR3 or lower on the depth chart. He’ll be exactly that for the Cardinals, who are fortifying the pass-catchers behind Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson as they figure out their quarterback plans.

Blankenship made the Eagles’ roster as a UDFA in 2022. He served as a backup during his rookie season before earning a starting role in 2023. Blankenship never gave up that job and went on to start 46 reglar season games plus five postseason contests during his time in Philly. Blankenship broke up four passes and intercepted one in 2025. He will slot into a starting role on an elite Houston defense this year.
