NEW YORK -- The National Football League today announced that 524 players are free agents who now can negotiate with all 32 clubs. Players are either "restricted" or "unrestricted" free agents. Within the categories are also "franchise" and "transition" players.
The time period for free agency signings in 2013:
• Restricted Free Agents – March 12 to April 19
• Unrestricted Free Agents (who have received June 1 tender from prior club) – March 12 to July 22 (or the first scheduled day of the first NFL training camp, whichever is later).
• Franchise Players – March 12 to November 12, the Tuesday following the 10th week of the regular season.
• Transition Players – There are no transition player designations this year.
Following is a list of free agents by club in four different categories:

If a New Club reaches an agreement with a player in Category No. 1 for the 2013 season or for 2013 and future seasons, the agreement must be set forth in an Offer Sheet, signed by both the New Club and the player, and must be substantiated in the form of Appendix B of the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement. The New Club then must immediately: hand deliver the Offer Sheet, or send it by overnight mail, or by electronic mail in.pdf form (in each case a confirmation copy shall also be sent by first class mail) to the Prior Club, to the attention of the club's President or General Manager. The New Club must send copies of the Offer Sheet to the National Football League Players Association (to the attention of Mark Levin), and to the National Football League (to the attention of the Player Personnel Department) using the above described delivery methods. If the Offer Sheet is hand delivered, the New Club should obtain an acknowledgement of receipt. In addition, the New Club shall notify the League office by NFLnet of the terms of an Offer Sheet immediately upon delivery to a Prior Club.
The Prior Club has a Right of First Refusal to all players listed above. Compensation is as listed in the column on the right. If the Prior Club has only a Right of First Refusal and is therefore not entitled to any compensation, the designation "ROFR" appears in the column. In order to submit an Offer Sheet, a New Club must have available the required choice, defined as its own or better choice in the applicable rounds, in the 2013 Selection Meeting.
Offer Sheets may be submitted to a Prior Club until 11:59:59 p.m., New York time, on Friday, April 19.
