Free agency Day 1 is (almost) in the books. Free agency never really ends, per se, but there is a huge surge during the initial day. This years version saw a crazy surge -- . For such a bad free-agency cla s there sure is a lot of money being thrown around!At any rate, the first round of signings are starting to slow down. So lets make some snap judgments about the players that were signed. Namely, lets put up some winners and losers from Day 1 of free agency.Free Agent TrackerReminder: if your team didnt spend money, your team is not a loser. If you spent money in a terrible way, you probably a loser. Titles Derrick Jones Jr. Jersey arent won in March, theyre won in January and February. Not spending money rarely equates to not winning, and most of the deals were looking at here involved a lot of cash. So its hard to judge. But heres who won and lost based on our point of view. Howie Roseman and the Eagles:The embattled former general manager returned to a personnel role after owner Jeffery Lurie canned Chip Kelly. And Roseman promptly extended the longest digit on his hand in Kellys direction with his first few moves of free agency. Roseman didnt just ditch questionable contracts handed out by Kelly the GM last season. He worked magic over the past few days in getting rid of , and . Maxwell signed a six-year, $63 million deal with the Eagles last offseason and Roseman picked up five spots in the draft (moving from No. 13 to No. 8 overall) for his Anfernee Simons Jersey salary dump. If Alonso comes back to form, great for Miami, but again -- Chips guy. (Kelly dealt for the former linebacker.)The DeMarco Murray trade was le s magical because of the return, but getting rid of a high-priced running back with a lot of mileage isnt easy. was a better fit in Kellys offense last year and he hasnt been kicked to the curb yet. Its po sible hell be the guy in Doug Pedersons attack. It still only cost the Eagles 13 draft slots in the fourth round of this years draft to dump Murrays salary. Philadelphia used the cap room saved to sign safety and guard , both 27 years old or le s. : The Raiders learned from their first disastrous turn into free agency under Reggie McKenzie and theres a clear model for this franchise moving forward. Three home runs in the draft -- , and -- are being complimented by smart, aggre sive signings. is a 26-year-old lineman who should help improve the protection for Carr. hasnt had double-digit sacks in a season but put him on the other side (or same side, whatever) of Mack and good luck blocking him. He can be a terror on third-and-long. Oakland keeps building its roster in the right way. The Raiders will be a popular playoff sleeper in 2016. : After managing an impre sive turnaround amid a potential nightmare season, coach Bill OBrien Robert Covington Jersey helped the Texans win the AFC South and make the playoffs. Their performance in the postseason notwithstanding, it was a pretty strong season for Houston given the Arian Foster injury and total lack of a quarterback. Now is in town and we can debate the merits of signing him to a $72 million contract all we want. But its only 50 percent guaranteed and Osweiler is a top-25 quarterback. That doesnt sound great but is he worse than ? Theres upside here and OBrien has a history of getting the most from quarterbacks.Additionally, bringing in ($26 million) could be a boon. Hes a home-run hitting young running back with little tread on his tires. Given OBriens track record with backs he could have a huge season next year. : Not even really sure whether or not the won or lost in free agency. They spent a huge amount this week, , paying $46 million and laying out big cash for as well. This all on the heels of signing a one-year deal for $10.5 million. The Giants' defense is definitely better today than it was yesterday, but Jerry Reese laying out a bunch of money is decidedly un-Giants-esque. I do know this: Vernon is a HUGE winner. He just signed the largest defensive end deal in NFL history and made more guaranteed money than on the deal. Its only five years so hell be hitting free agency when he turns 30. : The Dolphins lost Vernon (25 years old), signed (31) and kept (34). You do the age-related math there. Mike Tannenbaum also gave up five draft slots in the 2016 NFL Draft in order to acquire the onerous contract of Maxwell. Not paying Vernon what he was going to get on the market is understandable, but they just let a guy they drafted and developed walk for what will amount to a compensatory pick so they could sign an over-the-hill rusher in Williams.At least they dont have to deal with wife anymore, right? No Jusuf Nurkic Jersey one does March like the Dolphins. : Cincy will be totally fine and, again, not being active during the first day of free agency isnt nece sarily a bad thing. But it stings when your No. 2 and No. 3 wide receivers are two of the five best wide receivers on the market. In a normal year, and arent considered worthy of getting $7 or $8 million a year from other teams. Jones went early to the (good luck replacing !) and Sanu is talking to the and . Cincy will be hard-pre sed to retain them, especially with s deal already on the books. They also lost Emanuel Lamur to former DC Mike Zimmer. Getting back for three years (even if hes 32) is nice but largely a tough day for Cincy dictated by the market. : Rough day for the Browns but at least it wasnt because they went out and set a bunch of money on fire. Cleveland let center leave, which is fine. He was out the door. But then the thing happened and its a bad look. Schwartz was negotiating with Cleveland in good faith and they apparently pulled their offer. Thats the opposite of good faith. It reflects poorly on the organization. They also lost , and, well, didnt bring anyone in.Browns fans looking for players left on their team: CBS Sports (@CBSSports) Its easy to make fun of the Browns. Also sometimes fun. Maybe theyre doing this rebuild the right way and just Jaylen Hoard Jersey starting over from scratch. But it wasnt a strong first day for this regime and after losing all those players, they didnt even release ! : The great thing about winning a Super Bowl is you won a Super Bowl. The bad thing is its hard to defend a title when everyone is trying to get paid. And the Denver Broncos are all trying to get paid. Or already got paid. of free agency, including Brock Osweiler ($72 million, Texans), ($90 million, ) and ($28 million, ). The Broncos will be fine because John Elway is smart and the defense is really good. There are . But its tough to be a Super Bowl champion in free agency. Everyone wants to pay your players.
