UFA and RFA Questions

[Benny8444]

Is Webb a Restricted Free Agent or Unrestricted Free Agent?

Also, Which UFAs do you see us keeping and which do u see us letting walk and why?

I think we have a bunch of cap space so we should be able to get younger at some positions.

1. Webb is a RFA, along with Cary Williams, Ellerbe and Matt Lawrence (presently on IR).

2. Of the important ones, they will keep Ray Rice and I would guess that Ben Grubbs, Jarret Johnson and Cory Redding will not be re-signed.

It'll be interesting to see how they handle Matt Birk, Andre Gurode and the Center position.

3. They will not have a lot of Cap space.

I think JJ is gone Kruger is more than likely going to fill his roll fine... Elllerbe will be replaced my a rookie more than likely, while Williams and Webb with be retained....

What kind of cap space are we talking about and where can they create some?

Kruger cannot play the run anywhere nearly as well as JJ. I do think JJ - because of age - may be allowed to walk, but I really don't see Kruger being an adequate replacement.

Ellerbe, despite his deficiencies, will likely be back. They usually retain their RFAs.

Grubbs will be re-signed.

I agree that JJ and Redding likely won't.
