Hobson is quoted as saying

" It’s believed they’re also working on extensions for other contract-year guys, such as running back Giovani Bernard and fullback Ryan Hewitt. Hewitt becomes a free agent after three years because he was undrafted.

They’d also like to get extensions for cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick and right guard Kevin Zeitler, playing on their fifth-year options as 2012 first-round picks. "



I don't really want to see them extend kirkpatrick, but I am glad their working on Gio, Hewitt, and Zeitler.

Zeitler is making 8 million next year if they can't sign a contract.  I would like to see that number taken down and add on them years. =)

You mean 8 mil this year? as both Z and Dre are on their last years both 5th year options.. But extending them both possibly lowers this years cap hit as the option can be recended.
