39 Quotes by Kevin Colbert

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.

We felt that Brett was going to be a full-time player on our team.

You go into it with a certain plan and you have to adjust as the game unfolds. Personally, I think it's exciting.

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.

There's nowhere you can go, because you don't know what the situation will be. It's hard to speculate. You have to be prepared for the worst and hope for the best. We don't know the specifics as to where we stand. It's all speculation at this point.

The thing about Ryan as a player is that he was always at the right place at the right time. He was somebody who could set a defense and run a defense. Ryan's similar to the types of free agents that we've been able to sign, a young kid coming off his first contract as a starter. He was productive on a very good defense.

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

Once the situation is settled it'll go very quickly. But if it isn't, it's going to go real slow because it's uncharted waters. You don't want to make a move that you may not have to make, and we're uncertain of what we can do until this thing gets ironed out.

You're always looking for ways to improve. And each team goes about things in a different way.
