2011 NFL Free Agency Tracker and Fantasy Football Impact - 5 comments

Are you ready for some football? After over four months of intense negotiations, the NFL and NFLPA have answered that question in the affirmative. That means the league is ready to kick off the wildest week of transactions it’s ever seen. We’ve been speculating all off-season on the potential moves that will happen once teams can start making free agent offers to players and trade offers to other teams. It’s now reality. Track the 2011 Free Agency period below, and we’ll add comments about fantasy impact when we can. You can see the current undrafted free agent signings here.

Updated 8/13/11 12:00 AM ET

Trade: Kevin Kolb to the Cardinals. After a couple of days of drama, the Eagles and Cardinals have finally agreed to a trade. Kolb heads to Arizona to become their starting quarterback, immediately raising the value of Larry Fitzgerald in the process. Kolb is now a high-end QB2, and Fitzgerald is a rock-solid WR1 who deserves consideration after the elite tier (comprised of the top four receivers). DRC steps into a starting role opposite Asante Samuel, curtailing the Eagles’ potential interest in the premium free agents at cornerback (then again …).

Trade: Donovan McNabb to the Vikings. This one is finally done, with McNabb getting shipped for picks. The Vikings offense gets a nice bump with a serviceable veteran under center, though the injury-prone McNabb himself isn’t worth more than a late QB2 pick in drafts. The Vikings biggest remaining goal should be to re-sign Sidney Rice or find a solid option across from Percy Harvin if Rice departs.

Trade: Reggie Bush to the Dolphins. Miami wanted a veteran pass-catcher to pair with rookie bulldozer Daniel Thomas, and they certainly aimed high by picking up former PPR sensation Bush, who should see the field is most passing situations (which should plentiful for the Dolphins). Those in PPR leagues can feel comfortable scooping up Bush as a quality RB3 and borderline RB2 with this move.

Trade: Tim Hightower to the Redskins. Neither Hightower or Beanie Wells proved to be the answer in Arizona, so the team went out and drafted Ryan Williams. That made Hightower expendable, and the organization shipped him to Washington, who also suffers from a logjam of mediocre backs. Hightower is running like the starter though, and he provides plenty of value in fantasy drafts as a result.

Trade: Chad Ochocinco to the Patriots. New England scoops up another talented-yet-unwanted talent (see below) with their acquisition of 85. I’d expect Ochocinco to buy into the Bill Belichick plan and become revitalized in New England, who was desperate for a scoring threat after turning the page on Randy Moss. All that’s left is for Ocho to remain healthy, but he’s worth a quality pick as a WR4 after this deal.

Trade: Lee Evans to the Ravens. The Bills decided to shop Lee Evans, presumably because Ryan Fitzpatrick throws a terrible deep ball, and the Ravens came a-callin’ after rookie Torrey Smith underwhelmed in the pre-season opener. Baltimore flipped a fourth rounder to get a proven deep threat as they continue to have an eye for the Super Bowl. Evans sees his stock go up in Baltimore and deserves to be considered as a bench WR in all fantasy leagues.

Trade: Jabar Gaffney to the Redskins. Gaffney was a solid sleeper in Josh McDaniels’ system heading into 2010, but that’s not the case anymore in Washington. One has to worry that rookie Leonard Hankerson is starting to get buried on the WAS depth chart, though he could push Anthony Armstrong for a starting job opposite Santana Moss.

Trade: Greg Olsen to the Panthers. His fantasy owners know good and well how wasted his talents were in Mike Martz’s system, and the Bears put the pass-catching tight end on the market. The Panthers wound up securing a trade for the under-used TE, even though the team had already signed Jeremy Shockey earlier in the off-season. Expect Olsen to start, and he could flirt with top-12 TE status depending on the development of Cam Newton.

Trade: Albert Haynesworth to the Patriots. Um, what? Haynesworth played diva to the thought of the 3-4 in Washington, so he’s probably none-too-pleased to be on another 3-4 defense. Rotoworld notes the Patriots could be counting on Haynesworth as a nickel defender, which would be excellent if the talented troublemaker gets his head on straight in New England.

Trade: Brodrick Bunkley to the Broncos. The addition of Cullen Jenkins in free agency made Bunkley expendable, so he now finds himself on his way to Denver after not passing a physical with the Browns. As a mediocre DT he doesn’t have any IDP value wherever he plays.
