NFL Off-Season Guide #9

It's officially the off-season in the NFL, so in order to keep everyone up-to-date on all the transactions going on in the league, I present to you.....the Ultimate Football Blog's NFL Off-Season Guide!

Any transaction that happens in the NFL will be featured in this column. If you are lost by the amount of roster transactions your favorite team has made so far this year, have no fear. You've come to the right place to keep track of it all.

Before we begin, just a quick note:

-"2014 playing grade" is pretty self-explanatory. It's the grade I'm personally giving the player based entirely on what they did on-the-field last season. Get it? Got it? Good.
