In an attempt to make free agency worthwhile, there is a proposed rule up for debate that players in their contract year can't he traded. It's either re-sign him or let him for into free agency. The trade committee will be responsible to ensure that players in proposed trades adhere to this rule, but of course it all starts with the owners. Here is a list of potential standout free agents that could find their way to free agency. This list is as of 7/27, so the Kerrigan re-signing doesn't reflect, but it may not reflect in game depending on finalized roster date at EA or roster update upon release.
