We have a ton of players out of contract next year. Here is the list according to over the cap.

1. H. Reddick (OLB)       11. F. Luvu (LB)                   21. P. Walker (QB)                  

2. S. Gilmore (CB)         12. J. Stanford (LB)            22. M. Haynes (OLB/DE)   

3. M. Paradis (C)           13. R. Melvin (CB)               23. J. Carter, Jr. (LB)

4. C. Newton (QB)        14. Z. Gonzalez (K)              24. M. Panasiuk (DT)        

5. D. Jones (DT)            15. A. Abdullah (RB/KR)      25. G. Ricci (TE/FB)         

6. J. Burris (S)               16. Alex Erickson (WR/PR)  26. A. Parker (WR)      

7. T. Scott (OL)              17. Lachlan Edwards (P)     27. F. Herron (DT/DE)                  

8. J. Jansen (LS)           18. S. Chandler (S)              28. R. Bonnafon (RB)           

9. D. Jackson (CB)        19. B. Zylstra (WR)          

10. J. Miller (RG)            20. I. Thomas (TE) 

I feel that very few of these guys should be brought back and I worry we won't have the cap space to pay the ones on the list we should bring back. Who should we bring back if possible...Which of the guys would you make a priority.

I assume we bring back Reddick, no matter the cost because he is a Rhule guy.

I think we keep one of Gilmore or Jackson, and likely just the one that wants to return. 

I would keep Jones but I suspect he will move on. 

I would keep JJ but I suspect Rhule will throw Fletcher in there and let him go(which will be a huge mistake). 

After that it's mainly a bunch of pretty replaceable role players that we will keep a handful of. Likely we will keep guys like Miller, PJ Walker, Ian Thomas, etc. Basically just the players that no other team would have interest in anyway.

I agree. Outside of Reddick and Luvu (and only if we can afford them), I can’t see any of them coming back. We need to commit to a full rebuild if we’re ever going to have a consistently winning team.

It'll be interesting to see how negotiations with Reddick and Gilmore go... Both could command a ton of money but supposedly have bought into rhules culture lol.

I don't think Gilmore cares about the culture. I think he cares about retiring and staying local. He'll grab some money and ride this out. He's got rings already and his legacy is cemented.

Luvuu is the value play assuming Tepper does the right thing and rolls Rhule.

IMO we should bring back Gilmore, Reddick, and maybe Haynes if Possible. I'd also want Luvu, Zylstra, and maybe the Specialists (Gonzalez, Jansen, and Edwards) all back. Everyone else could go--some cuz they aren't very good--others because I think we have young players who should take their spots.

When looking at this...taking into account:

Position & Player Importance to this team, other FA's (can we upgrade with the same money), and what I think our mess of a front office will do... I see the following coming back - 

Zane G. (Needed unless we plan to draft one late)

Frankie L. ..(Carter wont return over Luvu)

Reddick...(Rhule guy... don't know if he accepts though) 

Gilmore (Team friendly but respectable deal. Extremely good mentor for Horn, Henderson, Taylor and Pride)..not to mention he still has gas left in the tank. 

Also predict they'll lowball Donte. He'll net us a nice comp pick. 

Burris wont be back. 

Zylstra is up in the air...

Either Cam or PJ is coming back. My gut says Cam via Tepper influence. 

All I got.

I agree with this for the most part..

I would add Abdullah
