Shanle is an UFA, so there's no need to cut him... Herring is the guy that needs to be released. His salary is too high for a back-up (at best) LB.

Something to consider is that, prior to coming to the Saints, Shanle played ILB in a 3-4 defense. I would NOT be at all surprised if we re-signed him to a vet-minimum contract and kept him as a reserve ILB.

Not sure he played much in 3-4. 2005 was the first year Dallas switched to 3-4 and Shanle didn't play much.
