Saints cut Will Smith and his ridiculous 19.4 million remaining over the next two years. His salary this year is 9 million, giving us 4.5 million in cap relief. The Saints still are $10 over the cap.

whats the right way to cut players?

the average of their contract or what they are set to make in 2013?

DaCityKat's example on the OP looked like it was the average of the contract.

Someone tell me the right way.

Three years left you save 40% of this years cap

2 years 50% of this years cap

1 year 60%
