I agree with the article except releasing Massie.  There has been much talk about releasing him and Sitton.  Our line was probably better than average last year - compared to the league.  In my opinion, 32 is still pretty young for a guard, you often see them playing into their late 30's if their play doesn't drop.  Sitton had a problem with injuries, but he may be in for another good streak, and why create a hole.  It also masks your draft intentions by keeping him and Massie.  Massie was adequate, he played all 16 games and he is only 28.

It's too bad you can't put McPhee's drive and skill into Acho's body.  Acho doesn't miss a shap, but he is slow.  I love hearing him on the radio, you couldn't find a better representative of the team off the field.

If I waffled on any of the cuts, it was Sims.  We don't have a lot of depth there already, but he was no more than a solid blocking option.  He costs too much to do just that as his feature skill.
