Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain
Saw this on another board made me think of this post
Possible Miami Dolphins cap moves
Quinton Coples 7.751M Cut Savings 7.751M
Greg Jennings 5.5M Cut Savings 4M
Earl Mitchell 3.5M Cut Savings 2.5M
Jordan Cameron 9.5M Cut Savings 7.5M
Ndamukong Suh 28.6M Restructure Savings ~18M
Cameron Wake 9.8M Restructure Savings 4-4.5M
Brent Grimes 9.5M Restructure Savings 4-4.5M
Total Savings: ~46Mish plus another 6.2M in possible rollover from the Dion Jordan suspension possible cap space 47-54M at a 150M salary cap
Mitchell is solid so I doubt that happens. Not sure they are ready to give up on Coples and Cameron yet. The rest I could see happening. The one thing this does not take into account is how much the replacements will cost Subtract that amount and you are back to 30 mil.
Does this figure include Tanny's new deal? He will still suck so they could add OBJ and Gronk to this offense and they still wont score with him.
One thing that I will say is that it is becoming much easier to navigate the cap due to the rookie cap. Teams can rebuild without risking breaking the bank on unproven players.
