Both Will Smith and Jonathan Vilma will have to restructure true, but I don't see either one getting cut this season. Here are the some good reasons why you may still see them in the black and gold sorry to kill it for you!!!

Vilma:

1. The main reason Vilma will stick around is Joe Vitt!! Vitt loves Vilma, and Shanle for that matter as long as Shawn isn't changing assistant head coaches I think Vilma who isn't the worst of the linebackers gets a chance to fully recover from the knee issues that were bothering him last season.

2. His pay directly counts against the cap. Whomever you bring in at the Linebacker is in addition to what Vilma is making. Say you wave Vilma and bring in (my favorite) D,Qwell Jackson ( franchise tag) you will have to pay the franchise tag penalty what ever picks that would be and that players salary, and Vilma's. Way to expensive if you ask me. But they do if they are desperate for change. I don't think we are at that point yet!!!

Smith:

1. Will's making to much, we all know that but in a Spags defense you know what's a comodity!!! Defensive Ends!!!! You can't have enough of good DE's. So I think you'll see him take a pay cut, yes, but I don't see him leaving? Nope

2. Experience

Romeus - no field time
Jordan - 1 year experience
Mcbride - leaving
Drafted Rookie - no NFL field time
Trust me you need Will Smith's leadership right now!!!!
