In addition to the notes and content which follow, the numerous links below in Section A (Resources) to listings on the NFL.com site are no longer valid and at present that site hasn't rolled out a new free agency section yet. They no doubt will as that deadline (Feb. 29, 2008) draws closer. Stay tuned . . .
As with the site's draft section, for starters we are rolling out the 2006 links page for the time being, because (1) it's too soon! for the 2007 page yet (read: it's not ready
); and (2) many of these resources are here year after year, using the same URLs or URLs which are almost identical. In the coming weeks we'll clean up and update the various links.
But because it is too early yet, we'll save you some time and give you the link here to the best site which is already in full swing: The Red Zone.
