Fletcher - A tacking machine who has escaped injuries however, he is old. It is almost a statistical certainty that he will not complete his contract.
Rocky - Unproven and knee problems.
Marshall - Great depth but can't take the wear and tear of a whole season
Washington - Before last year the best Lb that we had. Presently going into his eighth year and coming off hip surgery. Near the end?
I don't know. A deal for Briggs doesn't look so bad to me. Although if they sign Landry, they can put Taylor at linebacker. That would be sick.

The Briggs deal is dead. There isn't enough time. Briggs would have to take and pass a physical as well as restructure his salary (we couldn't afford his $7.2M cap hit this year) all before around 1pm tomorrow. John Clayton said on the 6pm sportscenter that talks are over and it's not gonna happen.
