Free Agency?

With the probable onset of an uncapped year forthcoming many reports state that this will be a very lean year for unrestricted free agents. Many potential UFA's will become restricted this year since they have not accrued enough years of service to make them unrestricted. A prime example is Rams LT, Alex Barron who would be and UFA in a normal capped year. By most estimations if this were a capped year the Rams would let Barron become unrestricted and test the market. Since he will be restricted it wouldn't cost the Rams much to retain him for one more year.

The issue for the Rams is the team is desperate for talent at almost every position and the draft coupled with a string showing in free agency would have quickened the rebuilding process. As it stands now 14 teams will not have any starters exposed in an uncapped free agency pool. Long story short free agency will not be a cure for what ails this team this year.
