NFL Free Agency kicked off Tuesday at 4:00 pm, and what a couple of days it has been. The signings came fast and furious, and it was hard for anyone to keep up. Luckily we’ve compiled all the signings in our trackers
Our Day One Tracker is available here.
Our Day Two Tracker is available here.
We’ll be doing the same today in Day Three so stay tuned, and check back often for the latest in signings, trades, and releases as there are still plenty of big name moves to be made on NFL Free Agency Day 3.
Carolina plans to release WR Steve Smith today, as @billvoth reported. Let the bidding begin and make Baltimore a favorite.

If the Ravens end up winning the Steve Smith sweepstakes, would then further expect that Julian Edelman stays in New England
