NFL free agency is full of hits and misses. Players like Derek Carr and Jimmy Garoppolo signed big contracts only to disappoint. Running backs Miles Sanders and Jamaal Williams also failed to live up to expectations. The signing of wide receivers Allen Lazard and JuJu Smith-Schuster proved to be costly, while offensive tackles Andre Dillard and Jawaan Taylor struggled. The 2023 free-agent class serves as a lesson for teams as the 2024 free-agent period approaches.
