Some free agents for 2017

[Samurai Night Fever]

HAvent heard much on Spaight. I think Cravens will settle in and become one of our ILBs. But we are still forked as far as the safety position goes.

It would be nice to see Spaight and Cravens become the solution there at ILB, lord knows Compton doesn't have the speed to cover TE's or Wr's down the seam. Too true about safety, maybe Berry or find someone in the draft early round. Maybe Dunbar could be a solution at safety if we get a corner in the draft.

I expect we will roll over about $12.5 million. So we should have closer to $58 million before cuts. Figure HAll and Litch to be gone, bringing us up to around $63-65 million in cap space.

Kirk is going to take minimum $15 million in cap space, Baker probably $10m or so....

So way I figure it, we will be working with $40 million after resigning Kirk and Baker.


Problem is, we cant really afford to resign Garcon and Jackson both.

I forgot that we are able to roll over money that we don't use from the previous year. Thanks for that nugget. Nice!

I'm 90% sure Jax or Garçon is gone, I'm just saying If I had my drothers I'd bring them both back, even if it meant we can only sign one safety instead of two or something like that.

I think Doctson will be fine and if he were tearing it up this year, I'd have no problem letting one of them go. I don't want to be in the middle of a division race next year with Doctson nursing some injury, Grant falling down all over the place or Harris, who I really like BTW with a high snap count.

I don't want to hear how Cousins got paid and then regressed. He didn't regress, we just showed two of of his top receivers the door.

I completely understand that I'm in denial in regards to Jax & Garçon's situation, but this is where I'm at and will stay until they let one or both of them go.

How much do we save if we cut Lavaou?

How much do we save if we cut Lavaou?

$4m... bringing my estimated cap space up to a cool $67-69 million. But IM not banking on us cutting him at the moment. Hall and Litch are on IR, so no harm no foul. Lauvao is starting at present, meaning we would need to use some or all of that $4m to replace him.
