- Ndamukong Suh lands a $114 million dollar contract with the Miami Dolphins which is great for their team. Over the years the Dolphin's defense had some new player's from drafts but all of those players suffered from injuries. This is a great addition for the defense of this struggling team.
- Jimmy Graham gets traded from the Saints to the 2014 champions Seahawks. This will make the Seahawks even better than before with Jimmy Graham on their side of the football. Jimmy Graham is a tight-end, but he is an impactful receiver. The Seahawks have had some tight-end problems since they have dealt with many injuries with people in that position.
- Nick Foles gets traded to the Rams for Sam Bradford which was very surprising. The Rams have dealt with so many injuries last year but still being a pretty good team with their defense. Finally, they got a very consistent quarterback that just came back from an injury. Meanwhile, Sam Bradford will probably be a backup quarterback with the Eagles. I think that the Eagles will either trade up in the draft and get a quarterback like Marcus Mariota which their coach, Chip Kelly, worked with at Oregon.
- Demarco Murray goes to the Eagles in free agency. The Eagles traded Lesean "Shady" McCoy to the Bills making them in need of a new running-back. Last year in free agency the Eagles got the Saints running-back Darren Sproles who helped them a lot this year in the block and on the passes. Now with Demarco Murray the Eagles have got two impactful running-backs on their side of the field. This will work well for Chip Kelly's hurry up offense which has worked for them the past few years. They can get some easy yardage with Demarco Murray who lead the league this year in rushing yards playing for the Cowboys.
- Darrelle Revis go to another team again for the third time in 3 years. He is returning back to his first team where he got the nickname "Revis Island" and became THE best cornerback in the league. This will help them since the Jet's secondary has struggled a lot since Revis left a couple of years ago. This will help their defense a lot on the pass since their defensive line is okay.

2015 Free Agency Report: 3/14/15
This has been another outstanding year in free agency with many new players on teams and some very surprising trades. First, many great players were franchised tagged this year, which means that they get to stay with that team and no other teams on the market can get that player. Demaryius Thomas, Justin Houston, and Dez Bryant are one of the few awesome players that got franchise tagged by their teams. The players that did not get franchise were on the market for many teams. So, I created a list of all the trades and free agency pick-ups by teams till now. Here is my list of 5 players that changed teams so far this year and my opinion about the pick-ups by the teams:
