Vilma needs to go period. Franklin and Rodgers had 1 year contracts= DT in the draft, I want 2, We have DE's so let Smith go, he is overrated. I love Shanle he is solid, but we need youth at the lb. spot, heavy, fast, and hard hitters. Shanle would be a great backup. I like our db.'s probably will be good there although I would keep an eye on Porter, now for the safeties, it's going to depend on the scheme, I love Harper great ss. I can't see him going anywhere, now for Jenkins our 1st round fs. who has played lost all year, lost in G.W. scheme, should get a lot of compitition in training camp and if he can't grasp this scheme write him off, Quaddus will do a better job. Now about the DT's if we draft 2 to get pressure up front it will make our DE's better along with the new lb.'s, win, win. And get rid of Ellis asap, trade, cut, or whatever, waste of time.....

Shanle is solid..that's the funniest thing I have read in days..lmfao

To the folks that think Colston is not replaceable..remember when he was out a bunch of weeks, I think it was last year, Moore stepped up and did great. Moore is a playmaker.

Moore is good but he does disappear in games sometimes. Colston is irreplaceable in this offense and nobody besides Graham will go over the middle of the field and take the big hits or even go up and get the ball.

Tell me another lb. that has produced and plays each game? And don't say Vilma, that would be a joke!! He is on a steady decline, to light to actually play the middle, runs from straight on tackles, he had a few good years and thats it, he only has a little more speed than Shanle and don't have much of that left. Most over rated MLB. in the game today in my opinion.

I don't disagree with you one iota about Vilma. But to say Shanle is solid is laughable. The guy is a turtle and has ZERO awareness. Whatever good years he had in him are waaay gone and have been. Look at the video!!! If you think this is the only time he has done this you are just seriously in denial.

For the people saying get rid of Moore..are you serious??? Moore is the ONLY receiver who we have that can make moves after the catch.

We have Colston who is a possession receiver, Henderson/Meachum speed receivers. Arrington...who the hell knows, hasn't played enough to get a good feel but strikes me as another possession receiver.

No way do we get rid of Moore and to say he always hurt is laughable.
2006 played 4 games(just started with us)
2007 played 16 games
2008 played 16 games
2009 played 7 games (hurt)
2010 played 16 games
2011 played 14 games

Doesn't look like a person who is "always" hurt to me.

Mike, how many games has Colston played and started in?
I don't know where the stats are... just curious.
