PFF outlines a team-by-team guide for the 2026 NFL offseason, recommending a single external free-agent target for each franchise along with their rank and rationale for fit, scheme, and cap space. Examples include Jamel Dean (Cardinals) at corner, George Pickens (Broncos) at receiver, Devin Lloyd (Bengals) at linebacker, Khalil Mack (Packers) at edge, and Breece Hall (Chiefs) at running back, illustrating how teams can upgrade key spots regardless of cap room.

White Sox land Domínguez on two-year bullpen upgrade

The signing comes as Chicago reshapes its roster (including trading Luis Robert Jr. to the Mets to free payroll) and will require a corresponding 40-man roster move to finalize.
