| Former CFL WR Duron Carter |
5. Seattle Seahawks - GM Ryan Oldham has gone on record in saying that the 'Hawks have interest in Carter. They make the list for the simple fact that they have huge interest in the wideout, but they're at the bottom of the list because they may just simply not have the cap space to truly contend for Duron's services.
4. Carolina Panthers - The Panthers are not one of those teams (Seahawks) who want Carter but may not have the money to acquire him in August. General Manager Doug Auman has remained very mum on the upcoming plans and direction of the organization, and nobody knows what they'll do with the first overall pick, let alone if they're in the running for Carter.
3. Denver Broncos - They acquired WR Marques Colston in a trade with the Falcons, but you have to think at this point the former NFL 7th rounder is just a one to two year stop gap at the position. The only other wide receiver the Broncos have on the payroll is Anquan Boldin. With Boldin (34 years old) and Colston (31 years old) as their only two WR's and an estimated $120 in cap space, they should be major players in the Carter sweepstakes.
2. Buffalo Bills - After trading away Megatron to clear up a ton of cap space and getting much younger, the Bills will continue to look to build on a youthful foundation. Buffalo is also home to WR Reggie Wayne. If Wayne retires this offseason, look for the Bills to put that money to use by trying to acquire his replacement.
And the number one landing spot for free agent WR Duron Carter?
1. Oakland Raiders - The reigning IFFDA champions have a TON of cap space heading into the free agency period. If they want Carter or not remains to be seen, but if they do, they will be tough to compete with on the open market. With Jordy Nelson being the only stable piece to their receiver group heading into '15, surly the Raiders will be looking to add some talent at that position as they try to defend their title.
