10. Danielle Hunter - LB
It's not hard to see a top-tier pass-rush option like Danielle Hunter being a coveted free agent by multiple teams. Teams interested in adding defensive pressure will undoubtedly call the free agent.

Prediction: Chicago Bears (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +4000)
1. Chris Jones - DT
After another elite postseason, Chris Jones is in line for a monster contract. With where the Kansas City Chiefs stand, it's hard to see them dishing out the $33 million necessary to keep Jones again on the franchise tag. Will this finally be the year that Jones gets his long-term contract?

Prediction: Tennessee Titans (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +15000)
2. Josh Allen - EDGE
It's not often you see a pass-rusher with the skillset of Josh Allen reach the open market. Allen is coming off a monstrous 19-sack campaign, and a big raise is in store for the youngster. Still, we are unlikely to see a long-term deal for him this offseason, considering the Jacksonville Jaguars will likely use the franchise tag on him.

Prediction: Jacksonville Jaguars (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +3000)
3. Brian Burns - LB
It's hard not to respect what Brian Burns has continued to accomplish with the Carolina Panthers. He's the type of player that can get to the quarterback and will be a vital commodity in free agency. Will Burns look for a significant payday or try to win a Super Bowl?

Prediction: Cincinnati Bengals (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +1500)
4. Justin Madubuike - DT
If you're looking for a defensive star who improved their market after a great 2023 season, look no further than Justin Madubuike. The question will be whether or not teams believe his solid 2023 season was a one-off.

Prediction: Houston Texans (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +2500)
5. Kirk Cousins - QB
It will be interesting to see how comfortable teams are with Kirk Cousins after his 2023 campaign was cut short due to a torn Achilles. The Minnesota Vikings know what they have in Cousins, but there's a chance he is looking for an opportunity with a better roster to win now.

Prediction: Atlanta Falcons (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +5000)
6. Tee Higgins - WR
If Tee Higgins hits the open market, there will be no shortage of fits for the talented wideout. Still, reports are out there that the Cincinnati Bengals are planning to franchise tag him, meaning there's no point in speculating too much.

Prediction: Cincinnati Bengals (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +1500)
7. Jaylon Johnson - CB
There were plenty of rumors about the Chicago Bears trading Jaylon Johnson ahead of the deadline last year. That didn't happen, and the Bears will have the option to franchise tag him if they can't agree on an extension. It's hard to see him leaving Chicago after a strong year.

Prediction: Chicago Bears (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +4000)
8. Christian Wilkins - DT
If you're looking for an interior lineman, Christian Wilkins fits the bill in free agency. A big pay is for Wilkins after posting a career-high nine sacks in 2023. Will he price himself out of Miami?

Prediction: Indianapolis Colts (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +5000)
9. Antoine Winfield Jr. - S
Arguably, the top safety available in free agency, Antoine Winfield Jr., should check many boxes for teams searching for help in their secondary. Still, the Buccaneers can franchise tag him or sign him to a long-term extension. With plenty of cap space, it's hard to see him changing homes.

Prediction: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +7500)
10. Danielle Hunter - LB
It's not hard to see a top-tier pass-rush option like Danielle Hunter being a coveted free agent by multiple teams. Teams interested in adding defensive pressure will undoubtedly call the free agent.

Prediction: Chicago Bears (2025 Super Bowl Odds: +4000)
1. Chris Jones - DT
After another elite postseason, Chris Jones is in line for a monster contract. With where the Kansas City Chiefs stand, it's hard to see them dishing out the $33 million necessary to keep Jones again on the franchise tag. Will this finally be the year that Jones gets his long-term contract?
