2024 NFL Free Agents: Michael Pittman Jr., Devin Singletary, Tony Pollard, Hunter Henry

Many teams are studying free agency right now, looking at where they need to improve and who is available to fill that role.

There are valuable players at every position, and organizations are ready to throw the bank at them, but we are going to specifically look at the ones that impact your fantasy roster.

Obviously the franchise tag could take some players off that list, but this is a look at the current landscape and the top 20 free agents going into the 2024 season. Below we dive into a few notable players.

NFL Free Agents

Michael Pittman Jr. (WR – IND)

Even without a competent quarterback throughout his career, Pittman has been productive, and he’s coming off his second season of 1,000 receiving yards. He’s a great route runner who can create separation and he finished fourth in route wins and eighth in win rate on man coverage. Indianapolis would be dumb to let Pittman walk, especially with Anthony Richardson still essentially a rookie next year, but he should be one of the more sought-after receivers.

Devin Singletary (RB – HOU)

Singletary was an afterthought when he signed with the Texans, and many believe he would play second fiddle to Dameon Pierce. Pierce dealt with injuries and was just ineffective, and it helped Singletary’s stock. It was great in Buffalo, but he shined in Houston, and he should be a valuable piece wherever he lands.

Tony Pollard (RB – DAL)

It was supposed to be a breakout season for Pollard after the Cowboys decided not to keep Ezekiel Elliott. While Pollard still had some good surface numbers, the metrics tell another story. He had another 1,000-yard season, but his 4.0 yards per carry is the lowest of his career, he only had six total touchdowns, and he was 45th in production premium. But Pollard was still the best runner in the Cowboys’ backfield this year, and he looks like a prime candidate to get the franchise tag.

Hunter Henry (TE – NE)

Henry’s numbers with the Patriots were a lot lower than when he was with the Chargers, but in his defense, he was on one of the worst statistical offenses over the last couple years. The underlying metrics show that he can be productive; he was second among tight ends in production premium and second in dominator rating. He could be valuable again if he finds his way to a better offense.
