It's ridiculous when they play the "Financial security" card. The minimum salary for an NFL player has been well over $300,000 per year since he was drafted. If A player can't find a way to save/invest some of that money, then they're morons, and I have no sympathy for them.  As for my core 5 or 6, I meant to include Raji in the core group of 6, with Tramon and Jordy being on the cusp. The core 5 or 6 players are the ones you do everything you can to retain for the next several years. I love Jordy, and wouldn't trade him for anything right now, but he's not as irreplaceable as Greg Jenning in my eyes, which is why I didn't include him as one of the core players. Same for Tramon. Sam Shields isn't to Tramon's level yet, but he will be, hopefully soon, which would make Tramon a little more expendable.  Of course that core group can change at any time, but if I'm Ted and I'm looking to make sure I have anchors in place for sustained success, I look no further than that group of 5 or 6 players. .</blockquote>
