All subjective of course. Maybe the answer is letting both go which frees up a lot of cap room.....

kicks cannot go. You saw how drew performed under pressure. Nicks and Evens protect him more than his tackles on the opposite sides due to Brees playing style.Colston is the only receiver we have that is unreplacable. I think Vima, Meach, Henderson and possible Pierre or even Ivory could be a casualty too.
