Dayo Odeyingbo and Aaron Banks headline NFL free agents who could make more money than you think

There are a bunch of veteran, big-name edge rushers available in free agency — Khalil Mack, Matt Judon, Haason Reddick, Chase Young and Josh Sweat, to name a few — and Odeyingbo could end up with as big a payday as any of them. A second-round pick (54th overall) out of Vanderbilt in the 2021 NFL Draft, Odeyingbo took on a larger role in his fourth season and led the Colts with 50 QB pressures, per Next Gen Stats. He’s one of just six players with 30-plus QB hits and fewer than 20 starts over the past two seasons. And he is still only 25 years old. Teams often bet big on upside in crucial areas like edge rushing, so it wouldn’t be a shock to see Odeyingbo land a deal in the range of $16 million to $20 million per year.
