How many years?

...all of them.

I think we'll have an even better team next year as long we stay healthy. I'm not knocking Bushrod because I though he did an outstanding job us this year but J. Brown's return will make a big improvement in our offense. Having an All-Pro LT allows Payton to open up the O even more. We had one of if not the best O-Line in the league and it will be even better with JB in there.

Getting Clancy back will help our D a good deal too. If he can play at the level he was at before the injury. I know Simmoneua isn't real popular but I think he adds to our overall depth and Malcolm Jenkins a huge talent who will only get better.

I'm not saying we will definitely be in the Super Bowl next year but there's no real reason to think we won't be one of the best teams in the league for a while to come.

But thats misleading since we really only have 2 or 3 UFA's of significance to resign.

Almost every "significant" player will be back next year.

the thing is that even tho we only have a few UFAs......we have a ton of RFAs and we arent going to re-sign them all

im hoping we can keep the core of this team in tact but thats far easier to say than it is to do

having a good solid draft will be crucial to our success next season and the development of our draft picks from last season may prove to be of even greater importance
