You may or may not know who Tom Ziller is (@TeamZiller). If you do know him you know he knows a whole lot about basketball. If you do not know him, know this: he knows a whole lot about basketball. If anything, he watches more basketball per week than any of us do. Anyway, a few days ago he ranked the top free agents for this year -- and divided them into groups: Superstar, Maxed Out, Living Legends, and then Everyone Else. I thought it would be interested to see where the Utah Jazz ' free agents ranked. For a point of comparison I've also included a bunch of other FAs as a frame of reference.
| Category | Rank | Player | Team | Comment |
| Superstar | 1 | Deron Williams | New Jersey Nets | He's really good, but moving forward, Favors and Kanter = more wins |
| Maxed Out | 2 | Roy Hibbert | Indiana Pacers | Ziller states that if Indy doesn't give him a max deal someone else will. |
| Living Legends | 5 | Ray Allen | Boston Celtics | If three point shooters are so easy to get why do we have none? |
| Everyone Else | 6 | Ersan Ilyasova | Milwaukee Bucks | "ability to rebound like a monster and score efficiently." - T.Ziller |
| 7 | Gordan Dragic | Houston Rockets | Kinda wary about throwing money at a dude who was traded for Aaron Brooks | |
| 8 | Nicolas Batum | Portland Trail Blazers | Could have been ours, but we drafted The Koof instead | |
| 14 | George Hill | Indiana Pacers | I think he played for the pacers, right? | |
| 32 | Kris Humphries | New Jersey Nets | "A rebounder who is otherwise completely non-notable." -T.Ziller | |
| 37 | Gerald Green | New Jersey Nets | Was out of the league, and made some good strides last season | |
| 38 | Daniel Green | San Antonio Spurs | Threes. Lots of Threes are made when he's open | |
| 45 | Marco Belinelli | New Orleans Hornets | "The original Summer League Hall-of-Famer. Accept no substitutes." - T.Ziller | |
| 54 | C.J. Miles | Utah Jazz | Highest ranked Utah Jazz free agent . . . Says a lot . . . | |
| 68 | Josh Howard | Utah Jazz | There are only 7 guys lower on Ziller's list, and J-Ho started for us in playoffs |
