When Raheem Morris overhauled the Bucs they released linebackers Derrick Brooks and Cato June, wide receivers Joey Galloway and Ike Hilliard, and running back Warrick Dunn. All over the age of 30. At the time people crapped on the move saying they would have no leadership and veteran experience. We do need to cut a lot of the older players. But not just about EVERY player. Look at the Bucs now, making a playoff run...

If you read the top of my post AND the OP, the question was who would you bring back next year at their current contract number. My list doesn't include players that are free agents that I would want to bring back (Rex, Moss, Holliday, Jammal Brown, Heyer, Golston, Wilson, Buchanon) or Kelly who is on the IR. That's 9 more players up to 36. You figure we are going to be aggressive in free agency and add 4-8 more players plus adding in 7 (or more) draft picks, there you go. No-one is talking about a tear down to scraps and build from there, although looking at Tampa and KC makes me more willing to consider it!
