601, I like your thinking here.  I don't really care who comes first Colston or Smith, but Colston mentioned a month ago he was in no hurry.  I've got a felling they are working on Smith and if that falls apart then we will sign Colston.  If that' the case I can see Smith getting the franchise tag next year.

I almost wouldnt rely on that.  Colston's got an agent, but hopefully he'll ask for a top 15 reciever money salary.  At that rate it'll be a bargain - We can sign him long term.

Evans is intriguing.  Im not convinced that the depth we have can replace him and unless one of the guys - Alleman, Nicks, or Bushrod - can show they can equal the small school or late draft pick thing, He isnt expendable.  Besides we'll have a LG problem soon also with Nesbit aging.  If he wants Hutchinson money, let him walk.  If he's a team guy bring him back

Smith?  See thats what I dont like.  See another player get a payday, then want what he's got.  We had no choice but to re-sign Grant, who we was gonna start?  Wynn?  Grant is a good DE but he got a good deal on us.  I think his numbers will be better than '07 but I doubt he'll be a 10 sack guy.  If only he could build enough stregnth to move inside permanently and actually like it. 

All DE's with high sack potential are gonna ask for break the bank Lotto contracts and until that stops, they may all become another Jared Allen story.  I look for that to happen again.  Smith will have a 12+ sack season and any AFC team will be ready to give up a 1 and 4 for him because he may be franchised.
