Active Roster
We have a good amount of free agents this off season, and a lot of guys that have baggage either do to age or injuries. Some of these guys I can not imagine playing anywhere else. Who does everyone think will be back and who does everyone think is the most important player to resign?
Free Agents:
Jason Taylor
Chad Pennington
Ronnie Brown
Ricky Williams
Will Allen
Anthony Fasano
Davone Bess
Ronnie and Bess are restricted, and I do not see anyone giving up draft picks for either, so as long as we offer them contracts I think they both will be back.
I think Brown is the most important player on this list. He is such a smart player, never fumbles, and is the wild cat. We have been a differint team since he went down. The problem it seems he can not make it through a season with out going on the IR. His reduced speed, and inability to finish the season makes it tough to pay him to much, but should prohibit others from making big offers.
The player I want resigned just because he is one of my favorite players of all time is Ricky. I can not imagine him going anywhere else, and I just got his jersey so I want one more season out of it.
The player I think we need to say goodbye to is Jason Taylor. That is hard for me to say as when Dan retired JT became my favorite player. In his prime he was a manster, and was the heart and soul of our defense that kept us competitive from 1999-2003, but his age has made him a liability against the run, and he has hit a wall this year, as he became invisible after the Jets game until last week against the Titans. He is also standing in the way of Anderson and Wake from emerging.
It is hard to imagine Fasano and Pennington being resigned. I would like Allen to come back if the coaching staff thinks he can overcome his injury, and return at a high level. This secondary needs a leader, and a dependable player. It may be a better option to keep Davis, Smith, and Jones, as our top 3 CBs and let Allen go, and go after a a FS who could be a leader and make some plays in the passing game.
