Dwight Freeney, LB

A lot of what happens with Freeney could be left up to him.  He hasn’t said for sure if he wants to play another year or retire.  Based on how he played in 2015, I say sign him and let him sit until October and then he is fresh for the run to the playoffs.

Of course I am kidding (I think), however there is some truth to that.  Freeney lead the Cardinals in sacks in 2015 with eight and that was in just 11 games, none as a starter.  He had just 11 tackles but with eight of them sacks, the Cardinals used him properly.  If he decides to play another season, let’s hope it can be in Arizona.

Decision: Keep him
