Tony Gonzalez - TE - UFA
Brent Grimes - CB - UFA
Will Svitek - T - UFA
Sam Baker - T - UFA
Mike Cox - FB - UFA
Dominique Franks - CB - UFA
Chris Hope - S - UFA
Robert McClain - CB - RFA

Christopher Owens - CB - UFA
Michael Palmer - TE - RFA
Mike Peterson - LB - UFA
Garrett Reynolds - T - UFA
Lawrence Sidbury - DE - UFA
Antone Smith - RB - RFA
Vance Walker - DT - UFA

Here's what i believe we'll do with the players on this list:

Who is likely to retire:
Tony Gonzalez
Todd McClure (If he doesn't retire, he should not be resigned)

Who should we resign:
Sam Baker
William Moore

Christopher Owens
Vance Walker
Michael Palmer
Antone Smith

Who should we let walk:
Brent Grime
Will Svitek
Mike Cox
Dominique Franks
Chris Hope
Luke McCown
Mike Peterson
Garrett Reynolds
Lawernce Sidbury

On top of that here is a few other moves I believe we should make.

Who should we get rid of:
Michael Turner

Who should we restructure:
Matt Ryan (1 year left, $10m cap hit in 2013)
Roddy White (2 years left, $9.325m cap hit in 2013)
Dunta Robinson (3 years left, $10.4m cap hit in 2013)
Jonathan Babineaux (1 year left, $4.7m cap hit in 2013)
