I think it'd be possible though, to use the tag this year, keep everyone (mostly) and then make hard decisions next season at the last minute.

That all being said... I think Campbell would rework his deal to stick around a really good defense with SB aspirations.
But in theory we don't have to do deals on Yan and Jack until next year, and Ramsey we could push off too with his option and what not.
But then there are ways of doing deals so that they move money all around and DC and Idzik have shown to be pretty contract savvy

Actually the person who pointed that out was incorrect. Campbell's contract was designed to allow us to part ways after this season. All but 3 mil of his guaranteed money will have been paid by the end of this season. We could save between 11.5 mil and 13 mil depending on the timing of the release next offseason.

I'm not advocating we cut him. Just pointing out that we have that option open to us.
