** Who do we re-sign and who do we let walk ? **

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

Out of all of those players, I would maybe look at re-signing Bolden, Butler and James.

 

[JJM_7]

Butler signed a two year deal, I believe. He's staying in 2019.

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

Good deal. He looks like he has more promise than Parker.

 

[ForksPhin]

I hope they re-sign Gore. He’s the straw that stirs the drink of this explosive offense.

 

[circumstances]

I try to keep Swanson, James, Wake, Hayes, Denney, Brendel.

Everybody else can go.

 

[joenhre]

Out of those guys, I would try to keep Bolden, Butler and Swanson. Maybe Gore and Gray . I wouldn't mind bringing Carroo back, he most likely won't cost much. Wake may be at the end of the line as is William Hayes who just has been unable to stay healthy.

Brendel is another guy who is always hurt and James is too in inconsistent for what he will cost against the cap. Problem is that this team has so much trouble finding average O-lineman. It is madening. Please hire some new scouts.

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

Butler was only signed to a one year 790,000 contract so he's a free agent at seasons end.

 

[royalshank]

James, Wake, Swanson, Carroo and Bolden.

I thought Gore signed a 2 year deal?

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

Cam Wake has given us so much over the years but I think it's time to move on from him. He turns 37 next month and clearly is not the player he was. It's time to get younger.

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

James, Wake, Swanson, Carroo and Bolden.

I thought Gore signed a 2 year deal?

Gore had only signed a one year deal

 

[joenhre]

I like Gore in spot duty and as a short yardage back even at his age. Not as a workhorse as Gase has tried to use him this season. I would love to see Gore kept in that role with Drake and Ballage getting more carries. However not sure if Gore would want to stay in that role and I wouldn't trust Gase to not revert back to trying to make Gore the workhorse back again.

 

[Csonked Out]

Butler was only signed to a one year 790,000 contract so he's a free agent at seasons end.

Per Barry Jackson, it was a 2 year deal through next year. Apparently he didn't know why they tossed in the 2nd year as they didn't say why.

I would keep him as a situational rusher. It worked for guys like Haley, Harrison, Peppers etc.

 

[Travis34]

Gore can stay and play as long as he wants until retiring - he makes like the vet minimum anyways

I’d bring bolden back too. I like thia group we have

Swanson can come back, he’s done okay

James- I’m over him. Let Jesse Davis try RT or someone else.

Hayes or Wake on small deals if they want to stay in reduced roles

Restricted free agent- brendel and maybe Carroo are worth keeping

- Brice Butler i could go either way on

- let Parker go, Branch go, Quinn go, maybe some others but that will clear up space including James too

Renaul the OL as best possible this year, find another development qb behind Falk... maybe Patterson? I’d love Ian book if he came out. There’s options for QBs out there we can take a flier on that aren’t 1st rounders.... And build the defense too maybe we need help at all levels - fire Burke too
