Can't we franchise DJ? If so, go that route.

Paye and Franklin, completely agree. Addition by subtraction with both.

DB's, if Ward plays, then it is worth keeping them all. We really need to be looking for Kenny's replacement. The other cadre of JAG's, agree, who cares.

Smith and Cross can go. Cross gets a lot of credit without his more than fair share of criticism.

Players not on the team:
We have a huge hole at linebacker. Pratt is our best backer and that's not a great thing to say. Trying to stay away from coaches- Lou to me is largely the same guy as Gus- and if he is still here, then we probably don't even try to upgrade the position because he doesn't seem to think LB's are even necessary. Regardless of what Lou thinks, we need better linebackers!

DL- man I don't even know what to say here. We have such a deficit on the edge it is sickening and with no draft picks to work with... no idea how we make any strides in this area.

Franchise tag for Jones is higher than I would pay him coming off injury.
