I agree but I still like a healthy Vilma. Which he should be....

Please please please Lord don't let Smith restructure and stay.
Amen

Smith needs to go, he should of been cut after the 2010 season. I'd like to see a healthy Vilma next to Lofton. Hope he restructures but not it could be time to cut ties with him as well

Smith is a goner.

See how the others playout but do not mess up Lofton or Bunkley

Every one of those guys will likely be asked to return at a lower salary, which will probably be at market value.

Smith, Harper, Vilma and Ellis do not suck, they just aren't nearly as good as their 2013 salary. All 4 know it and would be fools to not listen to counter offers by Loomis.

I'd wager 3 of those 4 are back here next year.

Maybe we should ask some teams, "Brothers can you spare a DC or two?"

Remember, Payton Manning was the highest paid player in the NFL not so long ago. Every season after that billing he restructured to make concessions for salary cap.

I actually wouldn't mind keeping Smith IF he would restructure his contract and IF we would get his replacement. He would be a great rotational player or backup.

he needs to shed some weight and become faster on the pass rush.
Totally not "fit" for the part
