To keep or not to keep?
The Redskins organization has already started negotations to keep Ryan Clark and Robert Royal. Arrington has expressed a desire to stay. The fans love him but from a system-perspective, the team wouldn't lose much if he left. There is considerable upside if he can harness his playmaking talents into the system and Gregg Williams uses him even more. I'd be very surprised if Patrick Ramsey stuck around. It's disappointing that the team spent a first round pick on him and won't get more than a mid-round pick in return.
Other notable players that may on the bubble:
Ladell Betts - negligible contributions as the backup RB, his KOR status could help his case, though
Matt Bowen - solid player, should try to keep for depth but could be cut because of Omar Stoutmire's and Pierson Prioleau's contributions on special teams
Antonio Brown - could be replaced in minicamp
Rock Cartwright - will probably lose his roster spot to more affordable Nemo Broughton
Walt Harris - the Skins can do better
Warrick Holdman - depends on what happens with Arrington, may become a starter again
Taylor Jacobs - should be gone, never took advantage of his opportunities
Cory Raymer - should be gone, looks like a liability
David Patten - will probably get another chance to contribute but will face major competition, possibly from the draft
James Thrash - will stick around because of his special teams contribution and hard-working attitude
