He's going to want too much money relative to his value. I think you'd be chasing production here, which to a certain extent you are with all free agents, but in this case I think it's buyer beware. Also, TT seems to like waiting for guys like Peppers to get cut so he doesn't lose a compensatory pick.Bruce Irvin (OLB/Age: 29): Irvin has been a staple of the Seahawks defense however his play in the past four years may not be enough to keep him on the roster. Teams will be willing to pay a lot more for Irvin than the Seahawks but he has only recorded 12 sacks in the past 2 seasons. In 2015 Irvin only started in 12 games and played in 15. He would record 38 combined tackles, 5.5 sacks, 2 pass defenses, and a forced fumble. Irvin should get priced out of the Seahawks range fairly quickly. The Seahawks also elected to resign K.J. Wright and Bobby Wagner to monster contracts that almost make it impossible for Seattle to offer Irvin anywhere near what he would get paid in the open market. It is likely that the Atlanta Falcons bring in Irving to work with his former defensive coordinator Dan Quinn.

Where does Jhari Evans rank in this list? He's a recent addition to the FA class, having just been released by the Saints. He's 32, but can still play at a high level if he chooses to continue his career.
