      I'd be happy with Berry, then drafting another safety.

          Martellus Bennett -- a novelty in that he is a TE who actually is used to block, but can also catch. Age 29. Show him the money.

          Matt McGloin-- Oak QB-just keep an eye out for how how he does for them in the playoffs. Age 27

                  Right....not holding my breath for any exciting pick ups.....

                  Just hoping they are at least capable of retaining our own......and sealing up a few that will be leaving next year....Bito and Kirksey head my list......followed by Pryor & Collins....

                    I would start with Collins as imperative. He brings an attitude of every down play that seems to now infuse the D.

                                They'll get Collins, Kirksey and Bito.

                                Pryor? Probably. But if they don't it'll be because someone gives him #1 type money.

                                      I see Collins as a tag target.

                                      Pryor as an incentive laden signing... a #2 WR base and #1 upside. I would not structure his base as a #1.

                                        Yes they do.....and I advocate proactive measures.....sign them now, show them and the team that we are serious about retaining home grown talent...... and dont wait for the bidding war.....

                                        Opening talks early also helps the FO understand where these players stand and gives us time to work around any objections they have to resigning.....(and allows us to plan ahead, if we cant get them on board).....

                                        Yep.....and our FO should be doing the same....

                                        Otherwise, our 5 year plan really needs to be a 2-3 year plan....cause everyone seems to leave(or tries) when their 4th year arrives.....

                                        Ward, Mack, Schwartz, Benji, Sheard, Skrine, Cameron, etc all attest to our inability to retain home grown talent.....and a 5 year plan requires us to be successful there....

                                        Pryor? Probably. But if they don't it'll be because someone gives him #1 type money.

                                        Id take those 3 as a very solid start to this FO showing me they understand FA and how it can help or break a team....

                                          Bito's injury history should keep his price down. As much as I loved his rookie campaign and want to consider it and him to be a building block, that availability thing is there.

                                          Kirksey? He's exceeded my expectations, but for a "speed" ILB he's just not much of a pass defender. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I have to attribute it to a run-first, coaching emphasis that makes him prone to bite on PA. Maybe paired with a real thumper he'd be able to play more balanced D?
