Cap space update

[Krusheasy]

Mike reminds us of important cap fact

allow me to point out this is the same chad ryan who said his source told him there was a 90% chance Cousins was going to san fran

but he is obviously respectable enough member of the media, even though he is out of Australia, that Mike responds to him

 

[deanpet21]

By cutting RJF, Hall, and Lavou it should bring us to 25m under the cap. I don't know why they aren't doing this now.

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

there will be post draft cuts no need to panic we did solid in FA so far

I think they want another D/ lineman signed. First before they ditch RJF

Hall ,I can't think of a reason

Lavou I think they want a potential replacement first

this is why landing Logan is huge. Poe looks like he is going to Indy. Hankins is going to want a bigger contract b/c of his age. If they have to overpay for Logan just do it.

We should not be spending more money on wr

We don't need to rush things dean. Besides Logan is intent atvlooking at all options

The other option is Hankins who will cost more money. Poe is rumored to o to the Colts. We can sign back Hood for a lot cheaper than RJF.

Mclain, Logan, Mcgee, Hood, Ionman, Taylor, and Lanier. That should be fine for 2017.

You don't want just "fine" you want difference makers

 

[Hambombs]

Same thing with the draft

The point was to sure up the run defense. I think we are doing that.

I have said this on more than one occasion. NTs do not command the money most other DLineman do. A lot of these guys are not every down players. There are still a couple of guys out there and their is no sense in overpaying.

Wrong. Snacks last year and B. Williams this year got the money.

We need to sign Logan or Hankins still. I am not sure why this hasn't happened. Hankins should at least visit. I find it odd that neither Poe, Logan or Hankins haven't signed. Do any of them have health issues?

We also need to have Hodges or Minter visit and sign. Compton is just not going to get the job done. I hope the FO doesn't view him as the full time starter again.

Poe does have a back issue. the other two are healthy. The Skins should overpay in this situation. We need the NT.

I agree 100%. Especially for Hankins. Give him a Vinny contract for all I care. He is 25, talented and lives in the backfield.

Bring in an ILB after that and call it day. This will take pressure off the draft as we will not be pressured to address every hole with the draft. We can focus our first 4 picks on RB, FS, LG and WR.

You have to remember that free agency sets up the draft.

I just heard Poe left Indy without a contract. They did offer him a multi year deal but Poe didn't like the offer. They said he is going to Jax. lol. that is overkill.

We shouldn't have rushed things on the 2 big macs - McLain and McGee. You can always find guys like them for less than the Skins paid. For guys like Poe - please do rush to get them. Logan's somewhere in the middle.

There had to be other teams interested in the 2 big macs that is why it was rushed.

Where did Logan go visit? What about Hankins?

Bottom line is that we need two more signings to help this team. Logan/Hankins/Poe and either a WR or ILB. If Reddick/Cunningham is the pick, then we need to go WR. Reddick is really growing on me and would start Day 1. We need to draft starters with those early picks for sure.
