Getting rid of Peterson, Floyd, Lamur, Crichton, Clemmings and Beavers would get them to 50.69million in cap space. I expect Robison will re-structure his deal, but he could be worth almost 6 million in cap space if they cut him. As I said, I think he'll do the full Chad Greenway and work 2 or 3 million off his deal.720pete wrote:We currently have $21 million in cap space for 2017. If we cut AP we free up another $18 million, nearly doubling our cap space instantly.
Players like Sendejo and Sherels are in the 2-3 million range with no guaranteed money. They are both worth keeping at that price, but depending on how they address FA (say they target a Safety or a guy who can return punts) they have 5 million sitting there in a piggy bank which they could put toward an upgrade elsewhere.
Jarius Wright and his 3 million could be shipped of via trade, but half his salary is guaranteed so I don't think they'll cut him.
That's about is much cap space as they can generate this season. Somewhere around 64.5 million tops, more likely around 52 million.
