Eric Berry, S, Kansas City Chiefs

This offseason the Chiefs already used their franchise tag on Berry, and while everyone fully expected them to re-sign Berry to a long-term contract extension, the two sides have yet to meet eye to eye on a new deal. Currently the Chiefs are facing some serious financial issues so we doubt they will be able to resign him to the contract he deserves. If Berry were to hit free agency, then you can surely expect to see him as the highest-paid safety in NFL history.

DeSean Jackson, WR, Washington Redskins

With the current Redskins salary cap situation, it is extremely unlikely that Jackson will return to the Redskins for a fourth season. As the Redskins are already committed to $116 million for the salary cap of the 2017 season, and that’s still before they re-sign QB Kirk Cousins. Additionally the Redskins still have a couple more free agent decisions to make. At the end of the day, it might just be too much to re-sign Jackson.
