Big offseason coming up (not even Cam/QB related)

Yeah we may look very different on defense next year.  
The first priority should be Bradberry and Shaq.

3rd? I thought we would be higher than that.

Preseason I would have said Bradberry over Shaq.  But Shaq has been playing So well this year, I can't see us without him

[Cpt slay a ho]

Shaq won’t get much of a pay raise than what he’s playing for now so that’s good.

Bradberry is gonna get paid

Boston may finally get a decent contract like he’s deserved 

Mccoy deserves a multi year contract, just hope the locker room has won him over enough to stay here for less than what other teams can offer

Don’t know how we feel about butler, but a reasonable contract at this rate is in order given his production.
 

Cockrell another candidate to be resigned as well

I believe Butler should get a Kyle Love type deal since that's basically who he would be replacing.  Not sure how he would feel about that or if he could get more elsewhere.

Every level could possibly take a hit.

Hypothetically speaking, if we didn't sign any of our guys back, I'm assuming we would look something like:

Haynes/KK/Poe/Burns

Miller/Luke/Carter Jr

Donte/(??)

Reid/Gaulden 

Alot of work has to be done this off-season. And I thought our run D couldn't get worse...

We have to try to ink Bradberry, Shaq, Addison, Cockrell, and DT depth...

How much $$ do we have again??

Bradberry > Shaq and I don't even think it's close.

My concern is the DL. McCoy is only on a one year deal, Love is only on a one year deal, Short is a potential cap casualty, and Butler is a FA. 

[Seltzer]

Only silver lining in this is that the offense (obviously outside of QB and maybe Olsen retiring) is going to be set for next year.  That is a good thing.

But yeah a large percentage of contributors on defense will be free agents.

Underscores how important it is to continue to draft well, which we have done a pretty good job the last few years.

We are not going to be able to resign everyone we want so hitting on our draft picks will be crucial.

[Jon Snow]

You will not have a clue as to which free agents they will attempt to retain until the question of who's going to be around to make that decision is answered.  Futile exercise if you ask me.  

[Mr. Scot]

The only thing I feel really certain of with regard to the coming offseason is that I hope different people are running it.

According to Spottrac, accounting for around 15 million we will be rolling over, and about 7 million allocated to sign rookies, we currently have about 36 million in cap space to sign players not already signed for next year. One of the players under contract for next year is Gano, so we'll probably pick up a million or two assuming he's cut.

Bradberry and Shaq better be on this defense next year. I’m eating crow

[Forty-Eight]

Trade Cam and Short. 
 

Bradberry, Shaq and Butler need to be back.
