DeMarco Murray, Philadelphia Eagles - What a coup for the Philadelphia Eagles. They traded LeSean McCoy last week, but came back with a huge five-year, $42 million signing of DeMarco Murray. In getting Murray, the Eagles have arguably the best rusher in the NFL, who led the league with 1,845 yards and 13 touchdowns in 2014.  (Photo: Ron Jenkins/Fort Worth Star-Telegram/TNS via Getty Images)

Ndamukong Suh, Miami Dolphins - The six-year $114 million — with $60 million guaranteed — contract it took the Miami Dolphins over to get Ndamukong Suh is definitely pricey. But while the price tag to land free agency's biggest fish is a topic of discussion, its certain that Suh's presence will bolster the Dolphins' defensive line.(Photo: J Pat Carter/AP Photo)

Darrelle Revis, New York Jets - Best cornerback in the game. Sorry Richard Sherman. While the New York Jets should have sewed Darrelle Revis up last year with a long-term deal, this five-year, $70 million deal makes amends. Was it a lot? No doubt. Is Revis Island worth it? Absolutely.(Photo: Jeff Zelevansky/Getty Images)

Andre Johnson, Indianapolis Colts - Adding a veteran wide receiver like Andre Johnson for a young stud quarterback like Andrew Luck to target just makes sense for the Indianapolis Colts. Though Johnson, 33, might be a step slower, his 85 receptions for 936 yards last season proves he can still be a possession wideout who can move the chains. Plus, the Colts hurt their AFC South rival Houston Texans by landing Johnson, who played 12 seasons with Houston, with the three-year, $21 million contract. (Photo: Bob Levey/Getty Images)

Mark Ingram, New Orleans Saints - Not only did the New Orleans Saints do the right thing re-signing running back Mark Ingram, but they added Max Unger, arguably the best center, to help him expand upon his 964-yard, nine-TD season. Now watch him do it.(Photo: Chris Graythen/Getty Images)

Devin McCourty, New England Patriots - Devin McCourty proved to be one of the NFL's best free safeties. The New England Patriots thanked him via a five-year, $47.5 million extension. Smart move considering Darrelle Revis skipped town. (Photo: Maddie Meyer/Getty Images)

Jeremy Maclin, Kansas City Chiefs - When the Philadelphia Eagles didn't come correct with an extension for Jeremy Maclin, he returned to a familiar face in Andy Reid. The former Eagles coach and current Kansas City Chiefs coach snatched the wide receiver right off the free-agency market.
