NFL Free Agents 2016: Rumors, Predictions for Top Available Players
- Updated: August 26, 2016
The free-agent pool isn’t quite what it was back in March, but NFL teams can still find players who can help them win in 2016.
Between veterans who have remained on the market for months and talented players who were recently cut for whatever reason, there are potential difference-makers looking for new homes. The interest in these players will heat up as we get closer to the start of the regular season, but a move could happen at any time.
Here is a look at the latest buzz surrounding some of the best names currently available.
Karlos Williams, RB
This wasn’t a great offseason for Karlos Williams.
The Buffalo Bills running back was suspended four games for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. He also showed up to camp overweight, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter:
At one point this off-season, now former Bills’ RB Karlos Williams’ weight went as high as 261 pounds. Bills had listed him at 229 pounds.

He wasn’t able to catch up to the rest of the players on the roster and was ultimately released after being placed on waivers.
On the plus side, there is quite a bit of interest for Williams on the open market, according to Sal Capaccio of WGR550:
I’m told 5 teams have shown interest in former Bills RB Karlos Williams, including the Jets, who he is visiting today as I reported earlier.

Lauren Brooks of Helmets and Heels also listed the Jacksonville Jaguars as a potential destination, but the New York Jets seem to be early front-runners after the running back’s visit.
Williams noted the “good vibes” from the team personnel in a video after the visit:
