If I remember correctly the 20yr olds next year will be Deck, Ross, Fauth, Festerling, Sievert and Fuder. Now Sievert will be gone since he doesn't come close to bringing what the rest of that list do, Deck will be back for sure along with Ross I believe. The Pats have been offensively challenged most years and that may keep Festerling around but on the other hand he might be some good trade bait if the Pats figure out they aren't exactly gonna win it all this year. Fauth is in the same boat as Fuder I figure, he provides something the Pats need with the size and toughness on the D but him sticking around depends on the Pats sticking with the pattern of playing their young and talented D-men. So I guess I'd say Fauth and Fuder would be on the outside looking in next year but I definately wouldn't rule out that changing.
