Dwan Edwards Cut?

Certainly a possibility, but given the timing it would probably be one of those situations where we informed him that he was going to be released and he decided to just retire.

That is a good point by you. We are losing a lot of veteran leadership. Star and Short need to continue playing at their skill level and Kony needs to step up. 

This draft is going to be real heavy when it comes to DT and DE.

Hope he retired. That would save us $2.1 million under the cap. If he was cut, it would save us $1.6 million.

Class guy, gave us 4 very nice years.

I'd really rather not go after the guy's $500k in prorated signing bonus. That's a dick move to do to an older veteran who gave everything he had for 4 years.

So, here's what the DT situation looks like at the moment.  Assume we will do everything necessary to resign Love.  The comment below the table was my assessment from about Feb 10th when I created the 2016 Roster Building thread.  Knowing it was a DT deep draft, Edwards' release / retirement seemed highly possible.

    • It’s simple. Win and everyone in here will say the culture is good. Dear lord the amount of time spent on these posts is hysterical. We’ve seen the end of season swoons where you can tell the team had given up with many of the same leaders that took us to playoff seasons. When your OL is decimated by injuries, it’s amazing how fast culture turns. When you get on a tear like 2015, everyone’s having fun. You need the right people regardless, but they have to win.
    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.
