Presenting…your 2008 free agent class.
I’ve categorized them by position; the player’s 2008 age is in parentheses. Also Type A or B status is included; otherwise there’s no compensation. If I saw someone as a possibility at more than one position I put them at both. I’ll keep this post updated throughout the offseason and make it a permanent sidebar link.
