not 1 single defensive starter should be cut.. we have the 3rd most cap in the league, and we have plenty of guys we can cut and save money who do not have anywhere close to the impact malik has.... Ivory, hurns, lewis, though I would prefer to restructure and let him retire here.

Some times you guys get to cute with this salary cutting thing... Jackson and Dareus need to be here, as to all the rest of this defense.. sans colvin who if he signs a big deal elsewhere we can afford to let him go

no one else on the D should go anywhere

I don’t expect to see them cutting on defense.  Dareus will most likely get a reworked deal. The rest should be fine.  

It will be interesting to see what they do with Colvin.  I suspect they’ll let him test the market and he’ll wind up getting CB money elsewhere.  I’m not banking on his return.  We’ve got guys to fill that role cheaper.  

Ivory was gone by mid season when he was a healthy scratch for multiple games going into and including the playoffs.  

I think they’ll find a way to rework Hurns deal in anticipation of a new contract for Robinson.  For ARob, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them give him a one year deal coming back from the injury.  

On the offensive line, Omameh may be a guy they let walk if they can find an upgrade.  

Overall, I think this team will come back mostly intact.  I don’t think they’re going to be big players in free agency this year, but they may make a splash.
