Then next year we'd have to decide whether to resign or replace:
- Garcon
- Perry Riley
- Chris Baker
- Jordan Reed (big $)
So as we think about all of our cap space we have to consider that money needs to be set aside for those guys, and if we're not going pay them, then we have to figure out how we're going to replace them before we consider bringing in an Alex Mack.
It's this kind of long view that leads Scot McCloughan to conclude that the best plan is draft draft draft, and resign your own. Mack is not a fit.

What sort of contract should we expect on Gallette? Last year was a "prove it" year in which he sat out. I honestly have no idea how McLovin will approach this one from the outside looking in.
