The Philadelphia Eagles are predicted to replace star edge rusher and Super Bowl hero Josh Sweat with a former All-Pro who spent the 2024 season with the New York Jets.

Target prices for 10 offensive players with expiring contracts were covered in an article earlier in the week. The focus now turns to defense. Things will get started on March 10

Free agency coincides with the start of the new league year and lots of players are hitting the open market. Here are the top 15 names on defense.

Defense is definitely stronger than offense when it comes to the pool of veteran talent available in 2025 NFL free agency, especially for teams needing edge rush and secondary help.

A person with knowledge of the situation says the New York Jets and linebacker Jamien Sherwood agreed to terms on a three-year deal worth $45 million. The contract includes $30 million in guaranteed money according to the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity Sunday because the agreement wasn't announced by the Jets.
