mine
1.C.Brown-Probably not, I think we need more speed here to compliment Lendale and Henry. Maybe more of a screen back. That being said, somehow he will end up here again.

2.Hartstock-yes all day. BUCKEYE

3.Troupe-yes for some reason I don't want to see him leave.  I'd hate to see him reach his potential somewhere else.  And maybe with Hiemerdinger we could see that same we saw from Sheffler in Denv. With that also said, I think he is gone.

4.Justin Gage-Yes I can't imagine what our WR would look like without him.

5.Moulds-No-He caught the ball, but couldn't get  open enough to do it often. I think his burst is gone.

6.J.Bell-Yes as long as he doesn't want to be the highest paid LG in the league.

7.Laboy-Yes- as long as he doesn't ask for starter type money.

8.Odom-Yes- But hasn't done that much to where he deserves above average starter pay.

9.Randy Starks- No- A waste of talent so far, I thought he could have been a Tommie Harris type player. Doesn't want it enough. Key problem for him is he isn't even getting any better.

10.G.Gardner-Yes- I think he is a capable backup but wouldn't pain me to see him leave.

11.D.Nickey-?- He's a Buckeye which is the only reason I'd consider him, but he's 1 of the few that do things to annoy me like miss tackles and get penalties. So probably not.

Antwan Odom- No.  Price will be too high.

Randy Starks- I wouldn't cut him, but I wouldn't offer him much to come back, either.

None of these guys....
....will be cut.  They are free agents.

When I say "cut", I mean...
... no talks going forward with his agent.  The organization makes an active effort to AVOID talking to these guys.  No matter what their price is, they are taking up roster space.

This list for me is pretty much limited to Travis LaBoy (injury history) and Chris Brown (will never get forgiven for dropping balls in late season games).

How can you not say no....
....on Randy Starks? He got blown into the 3rd row of the stands on every running play he was in for last season.

I'm not a Starks fan.
The only reason I can see to keep Starks is if all of the above happen:
  1. After the draft, there is still not enough depth at DT.
  2. He is reasonably cheap.
I mean, I like Starks better than, say, Chris "The Team could have the Chargers if not for my stupid fumble" Brown or Ben "I'm a freak athlete who can't catch and can't block" Troupe, but I don't LIKE him.  I just think, hey, he knows the system, and it's hard to meet EVERY need in the draft and FA.  DT could be a serious need, so...  Lesser of two evils IMHO is to talk to Starks' agent and hope he can be persuaded to stay around.
