2024 NFL free agency matchmaker for each NFC team: Falcons sign Kirk Cousins; Brian Burns lands in NFC West

The NFL free agency period is rapidly approaching. Teams are maneuvering to get themselves in compliance with the higher-than-expected salary cap so that they can make additions to their roster beginning next week.

We here at CBSSports.com have been covering free agency from every angle possible, with our positional top 10s, team needs and more. Over the next few days, we’re going to play matchmaker, identifying one outside (i.e. not on their team last year) free agent that each team in the league should try to sign. 

We’ll begin with the NFC. Without further ado …

Is this one going to happen? Probably not! The Cowboys don’t really spend money on outside free agents anymore. But they self-professedly want to get bigger bodies at linebacker after hiring Mike Zimmer to replace the departed Dan Quinn as defensive coordinator, and Luvu has the type of pass-rush ability that Zimmer can make strong use of from that position.
