Having a better pass rush would also help out harper, so maybe keep him around for another season to see if he improves? |

We need to stop keeping players one more season to see if they have improve.
Neither Smith or Vilma has had a flat or up season in the last two years. We are not going to get better keeping declining players for one more year. |

Re: Time to start releasing players?
Also, from another thread I learned that 3 days after the Superbowl is a key date for many NFL players since thats when some bonus money clauses kick in.
Not sure if any of ours are tied to that date tho. |
