“We're looking kind of young. The good thing is we're putting a nice nucleus together for coming years. We've got some nice talent down at the younger levels, too.”
Randy Noland
“It's nice to have some continuity around here and build a team from within instead of compiling a nucleus of players from outside. That's challenging. The development, the persistence and the work ethic is going to pay off.”
Jon Gruden
“We have to keep the nucleus together, and plug in some new faces, and we'll be fine. One thing about winning a Super Bowl is that everybody wants a player off that Super Bowl team. They're very hot commodities. Unfortunately for our team, you can't pay everybody.”
Hines Ward
“Bryan told me one of the reasons he came here was because we had a promising young nucleus, he's just really excited about working with us. We can't go anywhere but up.”
Chris Bosh
“I think we had a good young nucleus of players there. If you look at the team that beat the Rams, 10 of the guys on defense were the same guys who started last year, and nine on offense were starters last year.”
Terry Donahue
“We have a good nucleus and the beginnings of a team, and it is now a case of putting the right people with them.”
Alex Inglethorpe
“We consider him as one of the pieces of the nucleus that we'd like to keep together. He is very talented and the arrow is still up on him. I feel he has a chance to be one of the better offensive linemen in the league eventually and we certainly didn't want to lose him.”
