If it came down to keeping Jackson or resigning A Rob what would you guys rather do?

Cutting Jackson after this year will only leave 6 million in dead money due to an out-clause in his contract. 

So they'd save 7.5 million against the 2018 cap and then more in subsequent years.  

Personally though, I think I'd keep him around. They've finally gotten this line to a good place and Jackson is playing through a groin injury.  If they want to cut him after 2018 they'll only owe 4 mil in dead cap in 2019, 2 mil in 2020. 
I'd keep him in 2018 and then decide. 

A-Rob can still get done. 
No need to break up one of the best lines in the league over a guy only playing "really good" instead of "great" becuase he's hurt.

His cap hit next year in 15.5 mil.  It would be 6 mil. in dead money if you cut him so you would save 9.5 mil. just for next year.  Not to mention the 15 mil plus cap hits the following years.  I dont think he is anywhere close to that and Day usually shines when given a chance.  I dont think we would miss a beat if we cut him to save the cap space.  Day usually shines when given the opportunity and I think he couple fill Jacksons spot.  If we cut Jackson I dont think it will be "breaking up" our dline especially when Dareus starts to get his feet wet.  I don't feel Jackson is playing "really good" either being his liability against the run.
