Bodden - Yay as long as he doesn't ask for too much
Burgess - Yay, if he takes a value deal and a limited role. He was pretty decent towards the end
Faulk - Yay, will finish his career here.
Green - Nay
Hanson - Nay
Neal (has stated he will consider retirement) - Nay, will retire
Seau (likely not an early-season 2010 option) - Nay, will retire
Watson - Nay, he will draw interest elsewhere
Wilfork - Yay, will be franchised and if he doesn't get crazy with his demands, a long term deal.

Gostkowski (RFA) - Yay
Mankins (RFA) - Yay
Woods (RFA) - Yay
