NFL free agency opens Wednesday at 4 p.m. ET, with teams already making moves ahead of legal tampering beginning Monday. The Bills traded for DJ Moore and sent Trent McDuffie to the Rams, while the Chiefs acquired David Montgomery from the Lions. Malik Willis, Tyler Linderbaum, Mike Evans, and Jaelan Phillips headline the top free-agent names available.

Buffalo needs edge rushers after losing Joey Bosa and A.J. Epenesa to free agency. They'll likely sign veteran depth on team-friendly deals, particularly at interior offensive line. The Dolphins, desperate for edge rushers, have eight draft picks and could target a pass rusher early. They're expected to move on from Tua Tagovailoa despite a severe dead cap hit. New England prioritizes extending Christian Gonzalez while Cleveland's entire offensive line hits free agency.

Baltimore needs edge rushers after recording their fewest sacks in 15 years, while Cincinnati must replace safety Geno Stone. The Ravens could reunite Khalil Mack with new coach Jesse Minter, and Cincinnati wants a veteran linebacker to support young starters. Cleveland faces a complete offensive line rebuild under new coach Todd Monken, who emphasizes trench success. With the Super Bowl LX echoes fading, teams are positioning for the 2026 season through strategic free-agent acquisitions and trades.
