We have Ramsey, Jack, and Ngakoue coming up for renewal next season and that's going to cost a fair amount of money. Added to that I think they don't restructure Campbell until after the season so they can take full advantage of the extra money to pay R/J/N. (PS. I know Ramsey is on the fifth year option but that's $23 million, they'd have to find a way to get a deal done).

We currently have $20.3 million open on the 2020 cap with Bortles, Dareus, and Campbell as our top three cap hits. Assuming Bortles is a post June 1 cut, Dareus gets released, and Campbell is restructured that would open up roughly $48 million on the 2020 cap for a total of $68 million. That's plenty to sign Foles this year, plus sign Ramsey and Ngakoue next year. (I think Jack is let go in FA).

If Bortles is a post June 1st cut, does that he cannot look for a back up job until after that date?
