Personally, the more I dig into their grading numbers and match them against my stats system and eye test, the more I agree with their grading system.

Their Top 15 Free Agents (article here with write-ups and stats):

01 = QB Drew Brees, NO
02 = QB Jimmy Garoppolo, SF
03 = QB Kirk Cousins, WAS
04 = RB Le'veon Bell, PIT
05 = DE Demarcus Lawrence, DAL
06 = CB Malcolm Butler, NE
07 = OG Andrew Norwell, CAR
08 = WR Allen Robinson, JAX
09 = DT Sheldon Richardson, SEA
10 = WR Jarvis Landry, MIA
11 = DE Ezekiel Ansah, DET
12 = OG Justin Pugh, NYG
13 = OT Nate Solder, NE
14 = TE Jimmy Graham, SEA
15 = QB Sam Bradford, MIN

Due diligence and all that but if the Colts could exit the first phase of free agency having signed:

One of: Andrew Norwell, Justin Pugh or Nate Solder

-- AND --

One of: Demarcus Lawrence, Malcolm Butler or Ezekiel Ansah

I think that would set the tone of the off-season pretty darn well.

I don't expect Lawrence to hit free agency but Butler might (they signed a mega-CB contract last season) and Ansah probably will.

As for O-Linemen? Who knows; all 3 teams have enough cap space to re-sign their guys if they want to.

Walk Worthy,

I think Brees is exceptional, but to put him above two very young QBs is odd. You would think he would be just a two-year rental.
