Chandler Jones has been one of the most consistently dominant edge rushers over the last several years. In six of the last seven seasons, he has appeared in 15 or more games while recording more than 10 sacks and forcing at least two fumbles each year.

Chandler Jones will be 32 years old when he becomes a free agent in the 2022 NFL offseason. There have been no real signs of regression in his production, but it could possibly on the horizon. For now, he is still in his prime and would be an absolute weapon on the edge of just about any defense in the NFL.

#2 - CB J.C. Jackson, New England Patriots

J.C. Jackson has emerged as one of the best coverage cornerbacks in the NFL. Across his four years in the league, he has accumulated 25 interceptions, including 17 interceptions over the last two seasons.

There is always a market for solid cornerbacks in the NFL, and J.C. Jackson is one of the best in the business. He figures to land himself a big pay day, especially considering he is only 26 years old. He should prove be a popular free agent target this year, with many teams vying for his signature.

#1 - WR Davante Adams, Green Bay Packers

Davante Adams is the best available free agent in the 2022 NFL offseason. In three of the last four seasons, he has eclipsed 110 receptions with over 1,300 receiving yards and at least 11 touchdowns. He has been the most consistently dominant wide receiver in the NFL over that time frame.

Davante Adams is planning on becoming the highest paid wide receiver in NFL history. He has earned a major payday, that many feel he will almost certainly receive. The highest cap hit of any wide receiver in the 2021 NFL season is Amari Cooper's 22 million dollars. It wouldn't be surprising if Davante Adams receives 25 million or more annually.
