NFL free agency: Predicting the best free agent all 32 teams will sign in 2023

Predicting the best free agent the New York Giants will sign: Saquon Barkley, RB
You could argue the Giants make two crucial signings this offseason and I believe they do. Quarterback Daniel Jones and running back Saquon Barkley are free agents, and New York will likely bring both of them back.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said the Giants view Barkley, along with Jones, as part of their future in 2023 and beyond.
New York will bring Jones back, but the splashier and more significant signing will be Barkley, especially after so many injury concerns and the fact that he plays a position which does not command a high dollar amount any longer.
But, Barkley proved he was pivotal to this Giants offense over the course of the season. Over the course of the regular season, Barkley rushed for a career-best 1,312 yards to go along with 338 receiving yards. More importantly, he played in 16 games. Barkley will be back, and so will Jones, with the Giants looking to build on a highly-successful campaign this year.
