Just had a quick glance at some players released by clubs playing in the Championship next season.
3 in particular caught my eye
Defender. Lewin Nyatanga released by Barnsley after spending this season on loan to Northampton in L1. Was quite highly rated as a youngster and could be a good partner for Bradley. Got capped very early for Wales but his career faded. 34 caps for Wales, last of which was in 2011 but still only 28 years old. Adams could see potential in him.
Midfielder. Liam Trotter released by Bolton. This would be a quality signing, big physical presence in central midfield but also gets forward and scored a lot of goals in his Millwall days. Potentially a Carey replacement although a different type of attacking midfielder. Also still only 28 but feels like he's been around a long time.
Striker. Jermaine Beckford released by Preston. 33 years old now but knows where the goal is. Maybe not a typical Adams striker but while he's known more of a poacher he's not bad with back to goal and bringing the midfield into play.
No idea if any of them would move down South or fit in our wage structure but think all 3 would be very good additons.
