2023 NFL Free Agency: The best players left on Day 2 of the open market
Now that Day 1 of the illegal tampering period is mostly out of the way, there are still a bunch of players available for any NFL team willing to pay the price. We had a lot of movement on Monday, but the names left on the boards seem to indicate that we could have as much or more activity on Tuesday, and into the actual start of the new league year in Wednesday, March 15, at 4:00 p.m. EST.
So, if your favorite team hasn’t done enough for your preferences to this point, fear not — all NFL teams are doing everything they can to restructure and cut contracts to free up as much cap room as possible. The team you love might be ready to pounce as we head into the continuation of this frantic process, and if that’s the case, here are the best players left for those teams to choose from.
Our list here is based on available players left from Touchdown Wire’s list of the top free agents overall.
