NFL Radio - Worried about our OL and our run defense
#14
Truthfully Rey, Peko and even Witt were not at the pinnacles of their careers. All of them were and are rapidly getting to the ages of NFL retirement. Teams just can't afford to hang on to every aging player in hopes that they have some juice in the tank nor should they. Not only that, but as they age they become more expensive to keep on the roster which of course keeps younger players either off the team or stuck on the practice squads. 
Will we suffer from their losses? I have no idea, but I do know it is and always will be a young man's game, not a middle age man's game except on TV..
Every single team at some point has to move on to the younger players. If they don't they have zero hope of competing ..
In the immortal words of my old man, "Wait'll you get to be my age!"

Chicago sounds rough to the maker of verse, but the one comfort we have is Cincinnati sounds worse. ~Oliver Wendal Holmes Sr.
