2.  Who do you think Brown will sign, other than Nugent.

1.  Not sure if Whit intends to stay or has another year left.  I would say Kirkpatrick, Zeitler, and Burkhead, maybe Thompson.
2.  I say he signs everyone except Nugent, Winston, Brown, Boykin?, and LaFell.

2017 Free Agents
Andrew Whitworth LT 34
Domata Peko DT 32
Brandon LaFell WR 30
Dre Kirkpatrick CB 27
Kevin Zeitler G 26
Mike Nugent K 34
Eric Winston RT 33
Cedric Peerman RB 30
Margus Hunt DE 29
Wallace Gilberry DE 31
Brandon Thompson DT 27
Chykie Brown CB 29
Brandon Boykin CB 26
Rex Burkhead RB 26

We will have an estimated $36 mil in cap room next year, which sounds like a lot, but we have a lot of holes to fill.

I think we need to reup Whit.  Hoping that both Og and Fisher are ready to start next year is likely wishful thinking.  

I would like to keep Dre, but he will likely command top dollar on the open market.  There are positions that we are going to have to gamble on young talent stepping up, and I would be willing to gamble there.  If we reup Dre, we will probably have to cut Jones to free up money at other spots.

Zeitler is an enigma.  He's a world beater one year and sucks the next.  I would be ok with letting him walk, or resigning him on the cheap after the market cools down.  He is a guy that I think could be replaced with a tier 2 FA or early draft pick, especially as bad as he's been this year.

Other than that, I would reup Burkhead for depth.  The rest can walk.
