<p><strong>1. Andy Levitre, Buffalo Bills (27)</strong></p>
<p>Levitre is a big part of the Bills&#8217; offense for the future, despite some of his injury concerns. I think the Bills will do what it takes to lock him up.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Bills</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Tennessee Titans</p>
<p><strong>2. Louis Vasquez, San Diego Chargers (26)</strong></p>
<p>The Chargers&#8217; offensive line is terrible as-is, but losing one of their better offensive linemen would be a huge deal. I think they keep Vasquez around.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Chargers</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Denver Broncos</p>
<p><strong>3. Donald Thomas, New England Patriots (27)</strong></p>
<p>Thomas has played well in the wake of injuries in New England, and he&#8217;s ready to be a full-time starter somewhere I think.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Titans</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Indianapolis Colts</p>
<p><strong>4. Kevin Boothe, New York Giants (30)</strong></p>
<p>The Giants have quite a few free agents on offense, and they need to find some cap space to be able to retain key pieces like Boothe. He is a very solid starting guard.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Giants</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>5. Ramon Foster, Pittsburgh Steelers (27)</strong></p>
<p>Foster is a good young guard and the Steelers&#8217; offensive line is finally starting to take shape after years of building. I think they keep him around for the long-term.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Steelers</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>6. Brandon Moore, New York Jets (33)</strong></p>
<p><strong>7. Tyronne Green, San Diego Chargers (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>8. Matt Slauson, New York Jets (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>9. Kory Lichtensteiger, Washington Redskins (28)</strong></p>
<p><strong>10. Chad Rinehart, Buffalo Bills (27) &#8212; Signed with San Diego Chargers</strong></p>
<p><strong>11. Stephen Peterman, Detroit Lions (31)</strong></p>
<p><strong>12. Eben Britton, Jacksonville Jaguars (25)</strong></p>
<p><strong>13. Garrett Reynolds, Atlanta Falcons (26) &#8212; Re-signed with Falcons</strong></p>
<p><strong>14. Cooper Carlisle, Oakland Raiders (36)</strong></p>
<p><strong>15. Deuce Lutui, Tennessee Titans (30)</strong></p>
<p><strong>16. Geoff Schwartz, Minnesota Vikings (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>17. Leroy Harris, Tennessee Titans (29)</strong></p>
<p><strong>18. Antoine Caldwell, Houston Texans (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>19. Doug Legursky, Pittsburgh Steelers (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>20. Rex Hadnot, San Diego Chargers (31)</strong></p>

<p><strong>1. Ryan Clady, Denver Broncos (26)</strong></p>
<p>Clady is arguably the best left tackle in the NFL, especially in pass protection. I was shocked to learn he was only 26 years old with five NFL seasons already under his belt and not a start missed. This guy is a stud.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Broncos</p>
<p>Actual: Franchise Tagged by Broncos</p>
<p><strong>2. Jake Long, Miami Dolphins (28)</strong></p>
<p>Long has battled injury problems despite being one of the best left tackles in professional football. I think he&#8217;ll be seeking a big pay day this offseason, and the Dolphins have the money to bring him back.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Dolphins</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>3. Sebastian Vollmer, New England Patriots (29)</strong></p>
<p>Vollmer is an excellent right tackle for the Patriots, who would be wise to keep him around.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Patriots</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>4. Andre Smith, Cincinnati Bengals (26)</strong></p>
<p>The Bengals have a ton of cap space, and they need to make re-signing Smith a priority. He is a key piece of their offense.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Bengals</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>5. Branden Albert, Kansas City Chiefs (28)</strong></p>
<p>Albert is a very good left tackle in the NFL. The Chiefs have a big decision to make of whether or not to bring him back this season after he passed a physical. It seems to me that would make the decision an easy one.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Chiefs</p>
<p>Actual: Franchise tagged by Chiefs</p>
<p><strong>6. Will Beatty, New York Giants (28)</strong></p>
<p>This is an interesting situation. The Giants are over the cap but Beatty is a key player for them. He could also get a big contract on the open market. If a team is in need of an OT, he may be the top name realistically available outside of Jake Long.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Colts</p>
<p>Actual: Re-signs with Giants, 5 years $38.75 million</p>
<p><strong>7. Phil Loadholt, Minnesota Vikings (27)</strong></p>
<p>Loadholt racks up penalties like there&#8217;s no tomorrow, but he&#8217;s also an excellent run blocker who helped pave the way for a 2,000 yard rusher. The Vikes have plenty of cap space as well.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Vikings</p>
<p>Actual: Re-signs with Vikings</p>
<p><strong>8. Sam Baker, Atlanta Falcons (28)</strong></p>
<p>Baker had not been as good as he was supposed to be coming out of USC until 2012. I know that sounds like an obvious statement, but it&#8217;s a real disappointment. The biggest problem with Baker is the fact that he has lingering back problems. If the Falcons are okay with that, they may be able to get him back.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Falcons</p>
<p>Actual: Re-signed with Falcons</p>
<p><strong>9. Eric Winston (RT), Kansas City Chiefs (29)</strong></p>
<p>Winston is still a really good player with a few years left to play. Quite a few, in fact. Shocking cut by the Chiefs here.</p>
<p><strong>10. Bryant McKinnie, Baltimore Ravens (33)</strong></p>
<p>I think the Ravens would like to have McKinnie back after his excellent playoff performance.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Ravens</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>11. Gosder Cherilus, Detroit Lions (29)</strong></p>
<p>The Lions have Riley Reiff waiting in the wings to play right or left tackle, and while Cherilus had his best season as a pro last year, I think he could be let go.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Bears</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Indianapolis Colts</p>
<p><strong>12. Sean Locklear, New York Giants (32)</strong></p>
<p><strong>13. Barry Richardson, St. Louis Rams (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>14. Jermon Bushrod, New Orleans Saints (29) &#8212; Signs with Chicago Bears</strong></p>
<p><strong>15. Jammal Brown, Washington Redskins (32)</strong></p>
<p><strong>16. Demetress Bell, Philadelphia Eagles (29)</strong></p>
<p><strong>17. Winston Justice, Indianapolis Colts (28)</strong></p>
<p><strong>18. Jason Smith, New York Jets (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>19. Max Starks, Pittsburgh Steelers (31)</strong></p>
<p><strong>20. Tyler Polumbus, Washington Redskins (28)</strong></p>
<p><strong>21. King Dunlap, Philadelphia Eagles (27) &#8212; Signs with San Diego Chargers</strong></p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>1. Tony Gonzalez, Atlanta Falcons (37) I don&#8217;t foresee Tony Gonzalez playing for anyone but the Falcons in 2012 if he does choose to come back and play football.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_25591" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://cdn.fansided.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/25/files/2013/02/6809932.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-25591" title="NFL: Arizona Cardinals at New York Jets" src="http://cdn.fansided.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/25/files/2013/02/6809932-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Dec 2, 2012; East Rutherford, NJ, USA; New York Jets tight end Dustin Keller (81) runs with the ball while being chased by Arizona Cardinals inside linebacker Daryl Washington (58) during the first half at Metlife Stadium.

<p><strong>1. Tony Gonzalez, Atlanta Falcons (37)</strong></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t foresee Tony Gonzalez playing for anyone but the Falcons in 2012 if he does choose to come back and play football. The Falcons would obviously love to have him back. He is a key piece of their offense even at 37 years old.</p>
<p>Projection: Re-signs with Falcons or retire</p>
<p>Actual: Re-signs with Falcons</p>
<p><strong>2. Dustin Keller, New York Jets (28)</strong></p>
<p>Keller is a really tight end, he just has some trouble staying healthy. If you were him, would you want to be back in New York? I think it&#8217;s a legitimate option at this point, but I also think Keller will test the open market.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Bears</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>3. Martellus Bennett, New York Giants (26)</strong></p>
<p>Bennett had a big season in 2012 with the Giants, who are sure to want him back after seeing what he is capable of. I think they&#8217;ll try to keep him but with Victor Cruz set to receive a big contract it could be tough.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Giants</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Chicago Bears</p>
<p><strong>4. Brandon Myers, Oakland Raiders (27)</strong></p>
<p>Myers was the leading pass catcher on the Raiders this past season, and he had a breakout season. He wasn&#8217;t much of an impact on the offense before that, but he has proven he can be a factor and he is due to make some money this offseason.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Buccaneers</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>5. Dennis Pitta (RFA), Baltimore Ravens (28)</strong></p>
<p>Pitta may have earned a new contract this last year, making some big plays for the Super Bowl champs. I think he&#8217;ll be back in purple next year.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Ravens</p>
<p>Actual: Tendered by Ravens (2nd round)</p>
<p><strong>6. Jared Cook, Tennessee Titans (26)</strong></p>
<p>Cook&#8217;s days with the Titans could be over. He is capable of being a big play tight end, but I think that he will chase more money than he&#8217;s worth.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Rams</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Rams</p>
<p><strong>7. Anthony Fasano, Miami Dolphins (29)</strong></p>
<p>Fasano had a really solid season for the Dolphins, and is a really good option as a second TE. He&#8217;s been their primary TE, though, and he has a good role there.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Dolphins</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Kansas City Chiefs</p>
<p><strong>8. Fred Davis, Washington Redskins (27)</strong></p>
<p>I think Davis is one of the most talented tight ends in the NFL, but he has some trouble staying healthy at times. I&#8217;d be a little surprised if he didn&#8217;t end up re-signing with the Redskins because of their lack of talent at the position.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Redskins</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>9. Delanie Walker, San Francisco 49ers (29) &#8212; Signs with Tennessee Titans</strong></p>
<p><strong>10. Ed Dickson (RFA), Baltimore Ravens (26) &#8212; Tendered by Ravens (2nd round)</strong></p>
<p><strong>11. Ben Watson, Cleveland Browns (32)</strong></p>
<p><strong>12. Dallas Clark, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (34)</strong></p>
<p><strong>13. Ben Hartsock, Carolina Panthers (33)</strong></p>
<p><strong>14. Michael Hoomanawanui (RFA), New England Patriots (25)</strong></p>
<p><strong>15. Dante Rosario, San Diego Chargers (28)</strong></p>
<p><strong>16. Will Heller, Detroit Lions (32)</strong></p>
<p><strong>17. Steve Maneri (RFA), Kansas City Chiefs (25)</strong></p>
<p><strong>18. John Phillips, Dallas Cowboys (26) &#8212; Signs with San Diego Chargers</strong></p>
<p><strong>19. Tom Crabtree (RFA), Green Bay Packers (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>20. Gary Barnidge, Carolina Panthers (27) &#8212; Signed with Cleveland Browns</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_25577" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://cdn.fansided.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/25/files/2013/02/6744594.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-25577" title="NFL: Kansas City Chiefs at Pittsburgh Steelers" src="http://cdn.fansided.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/25/files/2013/02/6744594-300x207.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="207" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">November 12, 2012; Pittsburgh , PA, USA; Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Dwayne Bowe (82) runs the ball after a catch against the Pittsburgh Steelers during the second half of the game at Heinz Field. The Steelers won the game, 16-13, in overtime. Mandatory Credit: Jason Bridge-USA TODAY Sports</p></div>
<p><strong>1. Victor Cruz (RFA), New York Giants (26)</strong></p>
<p>Cruz is one of the top receivers in the league, but he had a bit of a down year in 2012, as did the rest of the Giants team. I think New York will make sure to keep this guy around, as he is a key piece of their offense.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Giants</p>
<p>Actual: Tendered by Giants (1st round)</p>
<p><strong>2. Dwayne Bowe, Kansas City Chiefs (28)</strong></p>
<p>Bowe is really inconsistent at times, but I think he is an above average #1 receiver in this league. He is a very dangerous red-zone threat who will really upgrade someone&#8217;s roster.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Dolphins</p>
<p>Actual: Re-signs with Chiefs</p>
<p><strong>3. Mike Wallace, Pittsburgh Steelers (27)</strong></p>
<p>Wallace had a down year in 2012 after contract negotiations didn&#8217;t go his way, but this offseason he has a chance to move on and start fresh. I think he&#8217;ll make big money somewhere this year.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Vikings</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with Dolphins</p>
<p><strong>4. Greg Jennings, Green Bay Packers (29)</strong></p>
<p>Greg Jennings was injured a lot in the 2012 season, but I think he can still really make an impact for a team. I don&#8217;t see him joining anyone&#8217;s rebuilding project, but he should still be looking for a decent contract at his age.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Texans</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>5. Wes Welker, New England Patriots (32)</strong></p>
<p>Welker had some drops this past season, but he&#8217;s still one of the most effective slot receivers in the NFL, as well as one of the best after the catch. He is going to make a title contender that much better since the Patriots can&#8217;t really afford to keep him around anymore.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Broncos</p>
<p>Actual: Signed with Denver Broncos</p>
<p><strong>6. Brian Hartline, Miami Dolphins (26)</strong></p>
<p>Hartline is one of the best #2 receivers in the league. However, he was #1 in Miami this past season and made a lot of plays. He should be due a nice pay increase, but within reason.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Dolphins</p>
<p>Actual: Re-signs with Dolphins</p>
<p><strong>7. Danario Alexander (RFA), San Diego Chargers (25)</strong></p>
<p>Alexander had a nice little breakout season for the Chargers this past year, and if he can stay healthy, he could be in for a really nice season in 2012. I don&#8217;t think the Chargers would break the bank for this injury risk, but I don&#8217;t think another team will either.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Chargers</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>8. Danny Amendola, St. Louis Rams (27)</strong></p>
<p>Amendola is a potentially huge pickup for someone this year if he can stay healthy. He is an excellent slot receiver and punt returner. I also think his injury history means he could come on the cheap heap.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Patriots</p>
<p>Actual: Signs with New England Patriots</p>
<p><strong>9. Emmanuel Sanders (RFA), Pittsburgh Steelers (26)</strong></p>
<p>Sanders won&#8217;t attract a ton of attention on the restricted free agent market, but the Steelers likely want him back regardless, especially if they&#8217;re losing Mike Wallace.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Steelers</p>
<p>Actual: Tendered by Steelers</p>
<p><strong>10. Brandon Stokley, Denver Broncos (37)</strong></p>
<p>Stokley is still in great shape, and when he&#8217;s healthy, he is able to make significant contributions as a slot/fourth receiver. He won&#8217;t be playing next year unless it&#8217;s with Peyton Manning, though.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Broncos</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>11. Josh Cribbs, Cleveland Browns (30) &#8212; Signed with Arizona Cardinals</strong></p>
<p><strong>12. Ted Ginn Jr., San Francisco 49ers (28)</strong></p>
<p><strong>13. Michael Spurlock (RFA), San Diego Chargers (30) &#8212; Re-signed with San Diego Chargers</strong></p>
<p><strong>14. David Nelson, Buffalo Bills (26)</strong></p>
<p><strong>15. Donnie Avery, Indianapolis Colts (29) &#8212; Signed with Kansas City Chiefs</strong></p>
<p><strong>16. Brandon Gibson, St. Louis Rams (26)</strong></p>
<p><strong>17. Julian Edelman, New England Patriots (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>18. Donald Jones, Buffalo Bills (25)</strong></p>
<p><strong>19. Domenik Hixon, New York Giants (28)</strong></p>
<p><strong>20. Ramses Barden, New York Giants (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>21. Kevin Ogletree, Dallas Cowboys (26) &#8212; Signed with Tampa Bay Buccaneers</strong></p>
<p><strong>22. Jerome Simpson, Minnesota Vikings (27) &#8212; Re-signed with Minnesota Vikings</strong></p>
<p><strong>23. Brandon Tate, Cincinnati Bengals (25)</strong></p>
<p><strong>24. Braylon Edwards, New York Jets (30)</strong></p>
<p><strong>25. Louis Murphy, Carolina Panthers (26)</strong></p>
<p><strong>26. Devery Henderson, New Orleans Saints (31)</strong></p>
<p><strong>27. Mohammed Massaquoi, Cleveland Browns (26)</strong></p>
<p><strong>28. Chaz Schilens, New York Jets (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>29. Austin Collie, Indianapolis Colts (27)</strong></p>
<p><strong>30. Sammie Stroughter, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (27)</strong></p>

<p><strong>1. Joe Flacco, Baltimore Ravens (28 years old)</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong>The Super Bowl MVP is undoubtedly going to be looking for a BIG time raise after his performance in the 2013 NFL Playoffs.Flacco is a very average to slightly above average regular season quarterback who flips some kind of switch when the playoffs roll around.</p>
<p>Prediction: Back with Ravens</p>
<p>Actual: Agreed to Long-term deal with Ravens</p>
<p><strong>2. Matt Moore, Miami Dolphins (29 years old)</strong></p>
<p>Moore is a capable starter in the NFL who doesn&#8217;t make a lot of mistakes, but he absolutely isn&#8217;t going to be a guy you want starting for your team permanently. I think he knows his role as a backup in this league, but I think he&#8217;ll seek out a place where he at least opportunity to be a starter.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Arizona Cardinals</p>
<p>Actual: Re-signs with Dolphins</p>
<p><strong>3. Jason Campbell, Chicago Bears (31 years old)</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong>Campbell is a former first round pick who has likely missed out on his window to be a starter in the NFL unless someone in front of him goes down. I like his fit with the Chicago Bears, but I&#8217;m not sure if he&#8217;ll be back.</p>
<p>Prediction: Re-signs with Bears</p>
<p>Actual:</p>
<p><strong>4. Chase Daniel, New Orleans Saints (26) &#8212; Signs with Kansas City Chiefs</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>5. Brian Hoyer, Arizona Cardinals (27 years old)</strong></p>
<p>Brian Hoyer was being talked about this time last year as a potential big time trade candidate from New England before bouncing over to the Cardinals. Hoyer hasn&#8217;t really gotten a chance to show what he can do as an NFL starter, but there are probably still some people who believe he can be one eventually.</p>
<p>Prediction: Signs with Vikings</p>
<p>Actual: Tendered (2nd round) by Cardinals</p>
<p><strong>6. David Garrard, Free Agent (35) &#8212; Signed with New York Jets</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong><strong>7. Tarvaris Jackson, Buffalo Bills (30) &#8212; Re-signed with Buffalo Bills</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong>8. Byron Leftwich, Pittsburgh Steelers (33)</p>
<p>9. Brady Quinn, Kansas City Chiefs (28)</p>
<p>10. Charlie Batch, Pittsburgh Steelers (38)</p>
<p>11. Matt Leinart, Oakland Raiders (30)</p>
<p>12. Derek Anderson, Carolina Panthers (30) &#8211; <strong>Re-signed with Carolina Panthers</strong></p>
<p>13. David Carr, New York Giants (34)</p>
<p>14. Rex Grossman, Washington Redskins (33)</p>
<p>15. Kellen Clemens, St. Louis Rams (30)</p>
<p>16. Bruce Gradkowski, Cincinnati Bengals (30) &#8211; <strong>Signed with Pittsburgh Steelers</strong></p>
<p>17. Drew Stanton, Indianapolis Colts (29)</p>
<p>18. Josh McCown, Chicago Bears (34)</p>
<p>19. Tyler Thigpen, Buffalo Bills (29)</p>
<p>20. Luke McCown, Atlanta Falcons (32)</p>
<p>21. Jordan Palmer, Jacksonville Jaguars (29)</p>
<p>22. JaMarcus Russell, Oakland Raiders (28)</p>
