Nate Tice & Charles McDonald break down the top available defensive players available in NFL free agency. The guys start by reacting to the Los Angeles Rams’ blockbuster trade for Kansas City Chiefs CB Trent McDuffie and some other breaking news from around the NFL (Drew Dalman retiring, Jonathan Greenard available and were the Indianapolis Colts right to give Daniel Jones the transition tag when Kyler Murray just got released by the Arizona Cardinals?).

Next, Nate & Charles dive into this year’s defensive free agent class, starting with a strong group of linebackers who could make an impact in the right scheme, a stout group of veterans on the interior defensive line, some intriguing edge rushers (including a few that could be acquired on the cheap), and an interesting (if not star-studded) group of secondary players. The duo also react to the news that the New England Patriots are releasing WR Stefon Diggs next week.
