    Yea Im leaning towards doing this too

    Neither would be missed and it frees up nearly $9M in cap space

    Any chance humphries retires? Would that take his entire salary off the cap if he does?

    The only way that the Clowney/Beasley signings effect next years cap is that it decreased any possible cap roll-over...if we had not signed them then we could have rolled over that money to next year.

    I don't blame JRob at all for those signings. Our biggest need was pass rush. He did not immediately over-pay for Clowney...he played hard ball and got him more at the price JRob wanted. He signed Beasley who was a young edge rusher who he was hoping would be perfect as a situational rusher....both were failures.

    My complaint to JRob is that he knew both were 1 yr deals and thus we would be looking again this offseason for pass rush help....he should have drafted a pass rusher as well.

    Hump could retire but that does not help us cap wise. Still have to take the hit for the rest of his guaranteed money, but could space it over 2 years similar to a post June 1 cap cut I believe

    For gaining cap space, I'd look to re-structure Lewan, Butler, Byard...

    Butler was our best CB this year...he played with heart and actually made some plays. I would feel better about cutting Adoree and saving that 10mil with no dead money. I at least know that Butler will show up and compete. I would try to re-sign King... Go with Butler, Fulton, King....over Jackson, Fulton, King

    butler isn't perfect, but dude plays hard and wouldn't be noticed much if adoree got back to playing decently

    As it stands Adoree isn't noticed much

    I like Butler, he plays hard and makes some plays

    We better keep Butler, I would think he would restructure but if I am cutting a cb it has to be Adoree Jackson

    When can we cut byard with it being financially viable? I think he was literally our worst defender this season.

    For this season probs vaccaro, hump, and butler. Hopefully butler will restructure cause he's pretty good actually

    In order to get better you suggest we cut our best DB and best OL from 2020? What?

    Saffold was one of the best guards in football and your solution is to “draft a guard in the 1st round” lmao good lord. Make it stop.
