I'm not sure there is a team in worst contract shape than we are. We paid a 6-10 team way too much money.

[Evengelion]

Only the draft can save us.

[camtheone]

If our GM can hit on the first two draft picks every draft and get some lower draft help...aka AJ...we'll be good...KEEP POUNDING!!!

[PantherPhann89]

I hope Gettleman use it wisely....

[IamSoClutch]

we need all the help we can get with our Cap situation. lets just pray that the north of 127.5 million article comes out soon

[SevyDamus]

We got this,Godfrey getting cut with extra boost in cap. Should give us enough to fill needed positions. Throw in the draft & we could be a yr away from being loaded.

We are actually very, very tight on cap space.

don't think its going to be as tight as people think. same things were said last year when we were way over and we ended up getting under by a lot.

 

Dwill will be gone

Godfrey will be cut

Charles Johnson is going to restructure so the Kraken can stay

 

we Good

[KendrickPanther]

Do people still think cutting Dwill will save us money?

[Captain Morgan]

Lafell at 5 mill?

 

we can do better than that for that money.

Despite what people on this board think, lafell is actually an average #2. I wasn't sure what the average salary was for one but I'll bet that's close
