Ranking 8 of the best 2020 free agent wide receivers

There are currently 70 wide receivers that are set to be free agents according to Spotrac. There’s a chance some of these pass-catchers will get the franchise tag, but most of them will end up testing the free agency market. Some may end up on a practice squad or out of the league, while others will end up cashing in. It’s the latter group we are focusing on here. These eight wide receivers are the best on the market.

A.J. Green

It doesn’t matter that Green didn’t play last year and has been hobbled by injuries two years in a row. We’re talking about A.J. Green here. He was drafted fourth overall in 2011. He’s made the Pro Bowl seven times. He has physical abilities that wide receivers can only dream of having. He makes big plays. He can stretch the field. He can be a possession wide receiver. Yes, his injuries are a concern, but no one should have rushed back to get on the field for that Bengals team last year. There’s a good chance Green is franchise tagged. There’s no way Cincinnati lets him leave without compensation.

Ranking 9 of the 2020 free agent running backs

There are currently 47 running backs set to hit the free agency market. That’s a lot of ball-carriers who will be looking for a home this offseason. Some of the 47 may not even get a contract. LeSean McCoy looked cooked for the Chiefs and was a healthy scratch. Adrian Peterson had a good year for someone his age, but that’s the key, someone his age. He has a ton of miles on his legs. Lamar Miller just missed the list but that’s because it feels like he’s never lived up to expectations and is injured a lot. So let’s get to the nine backs who made the list. The first running back is obvious.

Derrick Henry

Anyone who watched Henry run during the playoffs knows that he is best back hitting the market. He might not even hit the market. Even if the Titans franchise tag Ryan Tannehill, they can transition tag Derrick Henry thanks to a clause in the final year of the CBA. Henry had 1540 yards and 16 touchdowns in the regular season. He was the focal point of the Titans offense and the key to their effective play-action passing game. The only concern would be that the Titans ran him into the ground a la Dallas and DeMarco Murray.

There are 36 free-agent quarterbacks on the market according to spotrac. There are only 12 on this list. That’s because there are really only 12 free agent QBs with enough cache, skill, or name recognition that really matter. So let’s rank them because that’s what we do. These rankings aren’t based on which quarterback has had the best career — Tom Brady would obviously be at the top of that list — but instead are ranked on who a team should want now. That means age, contract length, dollar amount, skill, and if they are only a fit for one team or many teams are taken into account. Just don’t get angry when Tom Brady isn’t at the top of this list.

Some matchups are just better than others. No one would have wanted to see the banged-up Seahawks face off against the undermanned Patriots in Super Bowl LIV — unless you’re from New England or the Pacific Northwest. That game would have been boring. We’ve seen it before. It would lack explosive plays. Luckily we don’t have those matchups. Still, some games would be more fun than others and that’s where we come in. Let’s rank the possible Super Bowl LIV games.

Lady Vols victorious over Fighting Irish in big road win

Lady Vols defeat Notre Dame.

SOUTH BEND — The Tennessee Lady Volunteers came into town an underdog and made a big statement in their first major test of the season, defeating the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on the road, 74-63.

Tennessee led by as many as 18 points after charging out of the gates after halftime, and only trailed once in the game — at the 8:55 mark of the first quarter. The Fighting Irish came as close as four points towards the end of the second quarter, but would fail to close the gap any further for the remainder of the game.

The Lady Vols were led by Rennia Davis, who exploded for 33 points with 10 rebounds and an assist added for good measure. Her double-double paced the rest of the team, which featured two other players in double figure points: Jordan Horston chipped in 12 points and Tamari Key added 11. Jazmine Massengill kept the window clean with 13 rebounds and also added nine assists.

Tennessee shot 47 percent from the floor, thanks in large part to Davis’ 12-20 effort, and managed to shoot 64% from the free throw line — both significant improvements from their previous game. The defense also came up big, with 12 blocks and no player with more than three personal fouls. However, the team’s 28 turnovers put a blemish on an otherwise excellent performance.

The next game for the Lady Vols is on Thursday, November 14, back home in Knoxville against Tennessee State. Gametime is set for 7 p.m. ET.

LADY VOLS WIN! LADY VOLS WIN!
