You’re the GM. You’ve got veteran stars who look to cost you a pretty penny to retain, and you’ve got limited funds with which to do so. You’re not going to be able to sign a Mike Wallace or Jake Long, and still keep Steven Jackson and Danny Amendola. Also, some of the players have been placed in the ‘potentially’ category even though they’re not in a contract year. Those positions [WR/TE/LG] have been deemed - by yours truly - ones that could be upgraded, and would require you to send someone packing. Obviously, this won’t cover every player needed to fulfill the offensive depth chart.
