Re: The Moves We Should Make Next Year (merged)
best super-stud FAs:
CB clements
DE freeney
the colts probably aren't letting freeney go, so that's not happening. clements could be signed, and that'd probably be a good idea. I don't know where we're going to get our pass rush from though. maybe we'll draft posluszny or one of the 4 1st round DEs (gaines adams, quentin moses, etc) for that...
as far as our roster, it depends on how the season ends and whether gibbs is back. i really wouldn't keep saunders around though, not unless he decides to stop insisting that his way will work when it hasn't come close yet. letting bill musgrave go was probably a mistake.
guys i wouldn't mind seeing let go:
coaches: saunders, some of the extraneous staff (what does don breaux DO anyways?)
QB: brunell, collins
HB: duckett
CB: rumph (dude sucks)
K: Hall, Novak (unless there's really no better option)
P: Frost (there will ALWAYS be a better option)
resignings: (if they can be retained fairly cheap, they have more value to the skins than anyone else)
HB: betts
LG: dockery
unfortunately, there's not much flexibility in who can be released. the guys that haven't stepped up (arch, carter, etc) are no gos cap wise, and some expensive parts won't save money. ditching guys like wynn and daniels would save money, but some kind of replacement needs to be lined up first, or else our TERRIBLE pass rush will get EVEN WORSE. 2008 might be a long year :/.
