For example, will we be trading folks for future cap relief? Also, do we extend contracts coming due or move on?

Only real needs we have at the moment is TE, reserves at LB, DT3, maybe a reserve Interior Offensive Lineman...

This is a balanced team with adequate depth at all positions; in fact, we just released a good cornerback, a premium position no less...
