They really have no choice. 9 million over I think and the Franchise tag for a WR is like 9 million so at minimum they'd have to clear 18 million and of course they like everyone have holes to fill beyond Wallace. If they have any chance keeping him they'd have to really strip it down. Personally I think they should he's that valuable to them or anyone for that matter.
