2017 NFL Free Agency: Star rating is out of five. Age listing as of Sept. 1, 2017.
Follow me @walterfootball for updates.

  1. Kyle Juszczyk, FB, Ravens. Age: 26.
    Signed with 49ers

    Kyle Juszczyk is one of the top fullbacks in the NFL. He does everything you’d want a fullback to do; he blocks extremely well, and he’s an effective receiver out of the backfield. He’ll only be 26 in April, so he’ll be highly productive for at least five more years.



  2. James Develin, FB, Patriots. Age: 29.
    Re-signed with Patriots

    James Develin doesn’t do much outside of block, but he’s terrific at what he does. He’s one of the top run-blockers in the NFL at his position.

  3. Patrick DiMarco, FB, Falcons. Age: 28.
    Signed with Bills

    Patrick DiMarco is a one-dimensional fullback, as he does nothing but block. However, he’s very good at what he does. He’s routinely blasted open big holes for Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman.



  4. Zach Line, FB, Saints. Age: 27.
    Re-signed with Saints

    Don’t blame Zach Line for Minnesota’s poor running game, as Line is a quality blocking fullback.

  5. Marcel Reece, FB, Seahawks. Age: 32.
    Re-signed with Seahawks

    Marcel Reece is a solid blocker and a quality receiver out of the backfield.

  6. Mike Tolbert, FB, Panthers. Age: 31.
    Signed with Bills

    Mike Tolbert made three Pro Bowls in five years with the Panthers, but his play declined in 2016. He didn’t block very well, and he was no longer needed as a short-yardage back. He turns 32 in November, and it appears as though his best days are behind him.




  7. Will Tukuafu, FB, Seahawks. Age: 33.
  8. Austin Johnson (RFA), FB, Buccaneers. Age: 28.
  9. Derrick Coleman, FB, Seahawks. Age: 26. — Signed with Falcons
  10. Jorvorskie Lane, FB, Buccaneers. Age: 30.
  11. James Casey, FB, Eagles. Age: 32.
