I think the guys who are expendable are the role guys like Pitts and Walter, which hurts to say because they are usually the most admirable. But, it's a lot easier to replace a Kevin Walter than it is to replace a DeMeco Ryans.

I think right now Kevin Walter is the most replaceable. We've suffered through too many years of sub-par line play. Now that it looks like we might have a pretty good one I would prefer to keep it together...until we find a replacement. A RG is likely to be less affected by age than a WR. As much as I've pimped Walter the last year or two as not getting enough credit he's replaceable. I don't think it would necessarily be easy, but of everyone on the list Walter is the one I'm probably least likely to break the bank on.
Also, I love Demeo, but remember there were streches last year where Diles was the best LB on the field. Demeco had a sub-par season last year IMO. Some of that is probably due to unrealistic expectations though.
