Which would give us 42m in cap space. Most of those cuts are guys we're not relying on at all for the coming season (this assuming we draft a NT early enough to plug into the DL)
Perhaps Campbell restructures which would free up some more... perhaps he is cut too (15m in savings...)
Not a cap expert but I'd like to think 45-50m in cap space allows us to do what we need to to keep Yan or at least tag him and get our draft guys signed and then reasses the cap situation after 2020
This means guys like Norwell, Conley, and Bouye don't have to be cut and would be less dead money if cut next year when we have another draft and FA period to add talent to actually replace these guys.
Can't replace them all in one draft and if you draft their replacement beyond the 2nd round, expecting them to be day 1 starters is a tall task for most.
This all sounds good.
But what difference does it make when we keep Wash at DC?
Absolutely none which is why I reserve judgement until we know if he is staying. Why isn't he gone yet?!
