What Can We Do To Create More Cap Room?

[top dawg]

How much cap room would we gain by cutting Clausen, Armanti, and Mare? We have the least cap room in the NFL.

Not even two cents worth.

IMO, i don't see CJ and D Will getting restructured until next season, I believe we will go into the season with who we just brought in, and our draft picks and guys that got cut off of other teams rosters. Cutting Jimmy might not save us enough to really go out and grab another guy to learn the system, and pay him also,

So Cam is only making 1.4 million next year, base salary?

Base yes, but about 4 million of his prorated signing bonus counts against the cap.

Extend them, cut Mare and Clausen, Bam, sign someone.

Restructure big contracts like DeAngelo's and Big Money Charles Johnson. Marty must not like what's out there in free agency or he would have restructured some people by now.

What makes you think they signed a contract just to restructure the next year?
