ASJ - 4.75M
Gibson - 7.45M
Parnell- 6M

another $18M in savings.

ASJ isn't a wise cut unless he's got off the field stuff again.  He was the only decent receiving option at his position - they still have to add another viable TE in the offseason - no point needing two. His salary is reasonable. 

Gipson played well most of the time. Had a few really good games actually. I don't see any need to cut him.  
If they see an upgrade to be had for a lateral financial move, so be it, but that remains to be seen. 

Parnell will either be cut or restructured to stay on as depth at a cheaper rate. They have no depth for the O-line next year. Shatley and Wells are at the end of their contracts. They have to draft or sign a RG and maybe a RT if Richardson isn't winning the spot. As Jack pointed out earlier - Parnell may be a good keep for depth purposes. He's got one year left and has gotten all of his guaranteed money.

I hear you, but ASJ hasn't done much here, even before he got hurt and he didn't do much for the jets. He just has the name for being a first rd pick. Def need to draft a TE with one of the two third rd picks, and find another in the later rounds that can play special teams. Keep O'shagnessy (SP), and maybe go after Jesse James in FA if we can move some of these big contracts out, (stated above).

Gibson can be replaced, Tyrann Mathieu is a FA, def and upgrade, Tre Boston is a FA, cheaper and an upgrade. Gibson hasn't even played remotely close to a probowl level since he has been here and plays like he is worried about getting hurt when tackling or hitting. 

Parnell has allowed the most pressure of any linemen on our team, even though he has been the most reliable(in availability)/available until recently. He is average at best (not worth the 6M) and if he even wants to play as a back up, I recommend the league minimum and he won't do that.
