When I list the dead money, I am referring to the remaining signing bonuses that will hit the cap. You can take the hit all in 1 year or spread it over 2 if you desginate them a june 1st cut.I don't personally condone cutting all of these guys but heres our highest paid players and their scheduled cap hits and how much it would cost to cut them(dead money)

To understand the net cap hit of cutting each indvidual take their total cap hit - minus the dead money. You can spread it over 2 years(thanks rocknrolla) but whatever number you see listed in parentheses is the amount that would take an immediate hit next to the year listed. Then the remaining numbers in parentheses would come off in the 2nd year. Scroll down and see Rocknrolla's example of spreading CJ'S cap hit over 2 years for more clarification.

Here is the scheduled cap hits by year, numbers in parenthese are guaranteed amount for that year.

Just to correct you here, when you designate a June 1st cut it doesn't cut the cap hit in half for the two years, you take the normal cap hit for the first year and then the entire remainder the following year.

For example, if Charles Johnson was designated a June 1st cut the 2013 dead money cap hit would be $6 million, and the remainder ($12 million) would hit in 2014.

Why cut Ron? He is basically playing for vet minimum and we are getting solid production. Cutting him opens up another big hole at DT.

Unfortunately, I see Williams out the door for sure. I think everyone else stays. Beason, Gamble, and Gross are MUCH too valuable to let loose.

    • "Just $3 mil," you say. I don't understand why anyone would be upset about incentives. There is a reason they're there: to motivate and bring out the best in a player. I agree with you that we could've saved ourselves roughly $2.5 mil, at least, but it's certainly more risky to gamble on "potential," than to just pay for someone who has already proven themselves to be legit in the NFL. That being said, I'd have probably gambled. But I'm not overly concerned with the contract. There are more interesting things to talk about.
    • Return of the “smokescreen”. Huddle classic, I get it. i don’t think they are doing any covert operations here. If it’s offense, it’s Tet or Warren. But it’s likely to be one of those Georgia guys as an OLB, it’s the safest bet and probably where I would go if we stay at 8. Maybe even Starks at S if we trade down, although I’d feel the same about that as taking Golden. The wide receiver class this year is weird. You don’t see a lot of route separation on film. Restrepo is pretty good at it, Lacy is good at it but may have to play in prison league. Tet makes all his plays on “fug it Tet is down there somewhere” broken plays. Golden uses timing and speed changes to get him some space, but I’d like some of his routes to be more intentional. I also don’t think you can go in thinking track record. And it’s not just WR, outside of Kalil it’s been a train wreck for pretty much everything in R2 for us.  
    • Lotta love for Warren here.  I am not high on a TE at 8--heck, last year Bowers did not go until around 12 or 13.  Plug and Play is a good point, and we could run some double tight with (in my opinion) two very effective TEs.  If it were down to those two, I think I would go with Johnson and have the best CB tandem--especially if we do not get a plug and play edge.  There are many ways to go....
