Just read this on NFL.Com, I would love to have this guy. Cut Will Smith & Vilma, this should create enough cap room to sign several needed players. Lets face it Smith is over the hill and hasn't generated a pass rush since I can remember and Vilma may not be suited for the 3-4 defense, isn't that why the Jets (Rex Ryan) let him go. The last time I checked the Ryan brothers learned how to coach a defense from the same person old Buddy Ryan.

Vollmer at $6 million? No thanks. Good, but not at that price. Doesn't he have serious back issues??

And gotta disagree with you on Smith. He's been a solid veteran, no not spectacular, but he's a guy Payton values.

I don't project Vilma as a starter, more a situational player next season but again - a guy who Payton values.

I don't know is that what New England resigned him for, doubt that they spent 6 million on a guy with back issues.

Smith may have been a decent player at one time but at this point he snot worth the money they have to spend to keep him, IMO. I never saw him as an elite DE that needed to be paid what they were paying him. Thanks for the effort but need to get younger and need the cap room so BYE.
