I tried the free feat at level 1 for a couple campaigns, and while players enjoy it, I find it tends to tip the game balance off a bit, such that lower CR encounters are a little underwhelming. You might not find it a problem in your games though, depending on how munchkin-y your players are.
Definitely agree martials need maneuvers - I highly recommend Laserllama's martial homebrews for experienced players, gives those classes a lot more flavor and flexibility.
