Players get old very quickly in the NFL. A year or two from now we could see Adrian Peterson released due to his huge contract and cap hit.

Yep. That's where the "NFL=Not for long" saying comes from. Just found it somewhat interesting that they're all on the market at the same time. Sounds like Ware may be signing with the Broncos. There's no shortage of aging DE's that were once dominant. All 3 of those guys are at least HOF consideration.

Thought this was unbelievable.
W/out Steve Smith, here are the Panthers WRs right now. King, McNutt, Pilares, Webb, Bersin, Clemons. They combined for 0 catches in '13.
