I’m hoping Moton will retire a Panther. He’s been a steady presence on that OL for years and it would be ashamed to let him go.

I started a reply talking about his cap hit for next year (~31.5mil). 
 

Looking deeper, releasing him would only save us 17.5mil since ~14mil is signing bonus. 
 

I’ve now switched my thinking to the right choice being keeping Moton through next year. The 17.5mil we would save in releasing him could net a RT in the 8-12ish ranking for the position. So we might as well keep him as a veteran leader and career Panther. A valuable trade offer would be the only reason to move him.

I think its about 25% we release him, 10% rework his deal and 65% we just let him play out next year and part ways.  The contract timeline and his age match up

We will likely extend him, IMO.
