Considering the extreme youth of this team I don't know that the roster will be largely different next year. It looks like Caldwell already did the tear down, and now we'll have another large rookie class to go with the dozen from last year. That's why I think the vets on this list are gone, they've already been effectively replaced.

Yup, 24 players out of the 53 man roster were rookies, or 2nd year players. That number jumped to like 32 when you included 3rd year players. It was the youngest roster in the entire NFL. Add 11 more draft picks this year and it's going to stay really young. 

The tear down has been done and was started by Caldwell this past off season/season. We just have to hope whoever does the drafting moving forward doesn't screw it all up in these next 2 years, or we'll be doing it all over again soon enough.
