Hightower - i think he is our best option as our starting runningback with helu being mixed in heavily and royster (or some late round draft pick/ufa guys) battling for 3rd string and pratice squad.

With his injury I think we could sign him to a modest 3 yr 4.5 mil total contract.

Carriker - One of the quickest and best ways to improve depth is to upgrade starters and I think this might be the case here. If we can add a better end and slide carriker to a backup/fill in role I think we improve in two areas. On the flip side, upgrading carriker isnt at the top of my list of must do's this season either.

Another modest 3 yr 4 mil contract should do.

Golston/mcintosh - let them walk. I think rocky wants more than he is actually worth in our 3-4, he'll have better days back in a 4-3 where he can extend his career for a few more seasons. getting 1 or 2 potential starter MLBs is a high priority this offseason imo. wouldnt mind seeing a decent contract offered to the best avail mlb FA and a 3rd or 4th rounder used on a rookie. Also i havent given up on lorenzo alexander being given a chance to backup if riley or FA replaces rocky.

Montgomery - Should def resign. He is a decent guard in our ZBS and has proven to be a serviceable backup center. If we can upgrade at center and move montgomery to backup im all for it.

Also he would be on the cheap imo. 2.5 mil 3-4 yr deal. Quality depth and spot starter is what this team needs more of.

Polumbus - I dont have much hope for him as a starter and not even really as a contributer in 2012 but id offer him a workout contract and let him be a warm body in august. if he makes it, great. unless we get saddled with injuries i dont see his name being on the 53 for any game next season.

Stallworth - couldnt really care either way. his production and what he brings is easily findable and replaceable, the stallworths of the nfl are a dime a dozen imo.
