Okay, it seems evident that Saban will clean house during the offseason. Who do you all think he will DEFINITELY, WITHOUT A DOUBT sweep out the door, or trade? I'd say Reggie Howard, Junior Seau, Sage Rosenfels, Ricky Williams, David Boston, and possibly Sam Madison
Hate to say your wrong. But your wrong.
I really don't see Ricky going anywhere. Because of his past we get no value for him. He is a great runningback. He takes the load of Ronnie increasing his career length. Not to mention he is here for CHEAP.
Madison may go, if we get the right value for him, or he is included in a trade. But I don't see us jumping gun without fair value, our secondary is weak enough.
Like everyone else I'd love to see Howard gone, but he might be our best bet at dimeback next year, and he has a big cap hit on him. Might be cheaper to keep him.
David Boston is still a toss up, as long as he is cheap I see no reason to get rid of him. He is struggling with injury this year, he still may return to good form. Doubtful he gets back to pro-bowl form, but he could be a GREAT 3rd or 4th receiver.
Seau only goes if he retires. The guy has talent, heart, and knowledge. All things we need if we are going to get younger. He is a great leader and role model. But should he stay and demand big money that is a different game, but that does not match his personality.
Rosenfels is probably gone, not Saban's type of QB. But I think he has earned a 3rd QB role, he may stick around. Personally I'd rather see Frerotte take a pay cut, drop to 3rd, us pick a rookie in the draft, and go after a Kitna/Carr kind of guy.
