Kevin Colbert Players Quotations

We don't say one guy's a priority over the other. We do believe that we would love to have everyone back. It's hard to say where you can and can't go, because you don't know what's out there for the players yet, because they can't get offers from other teams. We want everybody back. Is that realistic? No. It's our challenge to keep this thing together the best that we can.

People say we haven't signed big free agents, but they lose sight of the fact that we signed significant players of our own.

We're not going to sign everyone. We may have to move on without some of the players who helped us win a championship. That's the way the game is today.

Just looking at our history, we never have been (real active) and I don't think we'll change from that. We don't anticipate that. We'd like to get as many of our own guys back as we can, and add to it as necessary, and then go to the draft and get players that way also.

We could sign a couple of players (to replace the versatile Randle El) or address things in the draft. We've taken care of some of the players we wanted to take care of and we'll step back and see how things progress here with free agency.

We are not going to lose in the first round. That is the way we are looking at it. I'm confident there are 32 players we can take as a first pick that will definitely help this team.
