1-The Tuna is in MIA, can't see Jerry giving him so much ammunition
2-SF has won a few games, so Jerry doesn't have to sweat the Patsies landing Young Mc
MIA is also in fantastic Salary Cap shape-48 players signed & $25.56mill to play with.
So Tuna can rebuild quickly. Some key FAs this year:
WR Randy Moss/LB Lance Briggs/OLB Karlos Dansby
RB Julius Jones/Jamal Lewis/Michael Turner (GB & Tennessee wanted him as an RFA)
S Bob Sanders/Ken Hamlin/Gibril Wilson/Eugene Wilson/Gary Baxter
DE Jared Allen/DE Justin Smith/DT A. Haynesworth/LB-DE T. Suggs/NT Corey Williams
WR Pat Crayton/Bernard Berrian/J. Porter/D. Henderson
OG A. Faneca/L. Allen/R. Brown/OT Flozell Adams
CB A. Samuel/Asomugha/Trufant/Brian Kelly
TE Dallas Clark/LJ Smith
QB PHILLIP RIVERS - interestingly, he reached enough incentives to void his contract
the rest of the QB crop is atrocious (Grossman/Culpepper/J. McCown/Redman)
Where does Tuna find the Vet QB he likes to roll with, to steward the O? RFA Derek Anderson?
A trade with TB for Garcia or Chris Simms?
Top FAs will be faced with the ultimate conundrum - take the $$$ or take the Belichick/SBowl pill for less?
