Looking over the needs and value moving forward, I can't justify keeping Dee or Kwon and letting Arik walk. I do love both of those players, but when I think of how little they played vs, who is behind them and cost I can't see the value. I know there are some outs in their contracts but I'm not sure if it makes business sense.

Ahmm...what? Where do you think Dee or Kwon are going? They literally just got signed last year.

I think Kwon is the most expendable of those three. Same issued he had in TB are showing up here. Doesn't justify his salary when a 3rd and 5th rounder are performing just as good as he is.

AA is open to a franchise tag. He's not going anywhere.

the fact is that when Ford wasn't playing DL didn't look good and neither did AA.

Armstead is. Our defensive line made this team. Without them we won't be back.

This. Have to keep them intact. Don't see the O being much better next year if Jimmy doesn't improve. Some close wins would be losses.

Armstead is the most important by far. Our defensive line is what made us. Dee Ford does not play so I don't see how he is important. Kwon is hurt a lot and misses a lot of tackles. But he is fast in coverage when healthy. Armstead is by far the most important one.

The way is contract is structured, if Kwon is cut his 2020 cap hit would increase from about $5 million to over $14 million.

Kwon is fast and and emotional leader but missed a ton of tackles. Frankly, I think the defense could be better if without him if we hit in the draft again
