What if the rules roll back?

How would it affect the AFC South if teams’ play under 2010 rules

Indianapolis

The Colts will fare far better at holding their roster together in this scenario, as it gives them extended control of six players who could hit the market if four years of service was the standard: running back Joseph Addai, offensive lineman Charlie Johnson, defensive tackles Antonio Johnson and Daniel Muir, strong safety Melvin Bullitt and linebacker Clint Session.

Five of those players could be in the starting lineup on opening day and all of them would play significant roles. Bullitt and Session are the most likely to be attractive to other teams if they come free, and Bullitt could create a hole the team would have to address through the draft or free agency.
