I think Washington is the team to watch. That defense is pretty close to elite and they almost won a playoff game with Taylor Heinicke. Lots of cap space too and they hired Mayhew who drafted Stafford. It's gonna come down to the best pick package more than roster ready guys (unless they are young with control).

Didn't even think of Washington. Good point.
This is probably one of the biggest off-seasons for the NFL. Lots of "change-of-scenery" deals are going to be happening.
I am a big fan of Stafford, and I hope he gets on a team that can get him far. He has paid his dues in Detroit.
