The time period for free agency signings in 2017: - Restricted Free Agents – March 9 to April 21.
- Unrestricted Free Agents (who have received May 9 tender from prior club) – March 9 to July 22 (or the first scheduled day of the first NFL training camp, whichever is later).

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 and to the National Football League using the above described delivery procedures. 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 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. Draft choice 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 that column. In order to submit an offer sheet, a new club must have available the required selection choice, defined as its own or better choice in the applicable rounds, in the 2017 NFL Draft. Offer sheets may be submitted to a prior club until 11:59:59 p.m., New York time, on Friday, April 21.
