Well, I think Fitz and Stephen Jackson get kept easily. Fitz because hes young and hes a beast (only question is Warner being so old, but I think he'll be fine, and his upside is too high to let him go). SJ because hes got a new coach coming in next year, and his upside is incredible - hes one of a handful of RBs that perennially go in the top 5, for good reason. Theres no worry of RB by committee on that team at all, which is rare. So, i think you have to keep those two.
I'm not sold on Turner or Wayne to keep. Wayne is getting up in years, and Peyton is starting to look shaky - he isn't an auto start anymore. They also see Tennessee twice a year, which doesn't help. I would be way too worried of what Marvin Harrisson did over the last two years to keep a Colts WR. Turner has Norwood, a younger, solid back behind him, and I worry about RB by committee developing. Plus, he has to play Carolina and TB twice a year - both have stout run D year in and year out.
I think you keep Jennings as the third. Hes young (meaning you can keep riding him) and so is his QB. True, he plays in the cold, but he has really delivered this year. The problem with keeping a QB is that they are generally a dime a dozen - in a twelve team league, it isn't that hard to find a QB that is pretty decent - and QBs are much more matchup-dependant than other players. Then again, Cutler is keeping Marshall and Royal, both very young.
So, I say keep Jackson and Fitz as givens. Then Jennings narrowly edges out Cutler for the remaining spot, but just.
