The NFL's new league year began on March 18, and many in our Top 100 have agreed to sign with clubs.
The NFL offseason has been one of uncertainty, first because of CBA negotiations, with the NFLPA voting to ratify the new CBA and then as a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic (get the latest at CBS News). It also features a lot of moving parts at the all-important quarterback position, with players such as Tom Brady, Philip Rivers and several other starting-caliber players switching teams. It's a lot to keep track of, but keep track of it is exactly what we do. And now Cam Newton is available via trade.
Here are your top 100 NFL free agents for 2020, and details on where they've been ... and where they're headed. Check this page regularly for the latest updates.
The 2020 NFL free agent rankings are determined by CBSSports.com Senior NFL Writer Pete Prisco. Not all free agents will be listed.
Note: This list is based on players available as of March 12.
