5 million dollars is the number. The math is generally $750,000 per pick.

I think they already restructured Oluokun, Zay, Kirk, and Scherff. Could be wrong. I think the fun part would be Cam Robinson's contract.

According to this, Cam Robinson has a 2023 base salary of $16 million, and his contract runs through 2024.  So if we do a simple restructure, and declare that base salary to be a bonus instead, we spread it over 2 years, and create an additional $8 million in cap space.  Of course, it pushes that $8 million onto next year's (2024) cap.

You can do it with this cap calculator.  Click the down arrow where it says "cut" and choose "restructure" then "submit" and our salary cap goes from $7 million under to $15 million under.
