This is the quote from Gibbs.
"I told them that with the core group that we have here, our goal now would be to try to keep everybody together. That is my job and I started early this morning."
I think maybe the writer came up with the core of 15 and not Gibbs. If you think about it why would a coach name out 15 players making the others feel like outsiders who could be gone at anytime.

It was Gibbs who came up with the "core of 15 players". It was his idea to use to deal with keeping team chemistry during free agency, not the reporters. Read the article again. The reporter did not pick the number 15 out of the sky.
Anyway, it would be nice to keep more guys together, and that is clearly a goal. I wish Clark would have stayed, but again, he was not one of the 15 and thus was allowed to leave. Also, I don't think that the coaches are going to talk out about who the 15 are. I think people agreed here:
