Theilen needs to stay. Clearly loves the game and has stuff in the tank. Maybe he can stay and trash XL how to catch like him.

If Bryce and the offense continue to improve and if we bring in some more talent on the defensive side, then I think we aren't that far away from being a contender, especially if our division continues to be weak.  In that case, having a guy like Theilen (who can find the seams, get open, make clutch catches, and provide a veteran presense) is invaluable.  He can't teach XL how to catch, but he can teach the younger guys like Coker, Sanders, and XL how to prepare, as Steve Smith says Ricky Proehl did for him.

I'm cutting all the old men.  Theilen is gone.  Clowney gone.  They serve little big big purpose given what we are and where we are.  Young blood needs those reps. 

Thielen needs to stay.  He moves the chains on third down and appears to be helping in the development of our younger receivers (informal player/coach).  That and he is BY’s security blanket when Bryce gets flushed from the pocket.  Milk him for whatever he has left in the tank for one more season.  JMO.

You can't restructure moton, he is on the last year of his deal. You can only cut/trade, extend, or eat his cap hit.
