The 2015 NFL season is done. Super Bowl 50 has been played, with Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos holding the Lombardi Trophy aloft as NFL champions.
Now NFL teams can settle in for a long, uneventful offseason.
Or not.
The fact is, in the NFL there is no offseason. No sooner does one year end than the tasks of the following season begin. Rookie scouting. The Combine in Indianapolis. And of course, free agency.
For fans, free agency means dreams of the splash signing. Adding a Pro Bowl performer—the proverbial final piece that will get their favorite team over the hump.
