Move on from Clark, Hitchens Reed and Sorensen. Find a free agent that has the same potential as Clark did when we brought him in at de. Draft some more guys there too. Find a safety somehow.
Biggest deal will be moving on from spags. I really don't care if we turn it around and win the super bowl, I highly doubt any of those guys are going to show enough to make us forget their liabilities.

Sure, it depends on the player and the position. The problem is that player is not exactly a burner. He's still fast enough for this game, but it's his smarts is what made him a good player. But once his speed goes and his effectiveness (which I agree with you on the effectiveness part), well.... then you just have another guy who's slow, only much more expensive.
Look, I love Matheau and what he brings, but I'm very hesitant to really sign guys who is on the wrong side of 30 to a long term contract, without any protections in it.
