Colston
Moore
Henderson
Arrington
Meachem
Patten
Skyler
Roby

Let's see, I think we kept five this year on the roster, so assuming we go with 5 next year, who will they be? Will Loomis re-sign Devery? Roby to return kicks? Don't forget Reggie in the slot.

TJ Housmanzadeh is available in free agency but will likely be too expensive. I think this is a position where we might use our 7th round pick on. I mean why not? Assuming AA pans out, that will be twice we hit the jackpot on 7th round receivers. Colston, Moore, Henderson are locks. I look for Meachem to either get cut or traded in the pre-season, which will open the door for AA. And i like Roby to return kicks for us next year. He showed a burst of speed and it will keep PT rested. Thoughts?

Yes Re-sign Henderson. He adds another element to our wide receiving corp.

Will Patten Retire?

Why don't we make Bush return kicks. He has the talent and we definitely pay him enough.

Not sure, but I just don't see him back with the team. He'll be 35 at the start of the season, and even though he was Mr. Dependable at the start of this past season, the injury may slow him down even more. I do hope I'm wrong about him, because I like the dependability and the toughness he brought to the team. He was like a better version of Joe Horn

Well we've seen how injury prone he is as a pro, so I think the less he's on the field the better. Im not talking from a production stand point, but if you have someone serviceable to do it, why risk an integral part of your offense. And contrary to what many people think, Reggie is an integral part of the offense. I still say use him sporadically to return punts like SP has been doing though

Patten is a lot like Joe Horn minues the load mouth. Tremendous vet.

This, not counting any impending releases and signings.
