Mark Brunell - $2.33 m
Renaldo Wynn - $2.5 m
Phillip Daniels - $1.9 m
John Hall - $1.5 m
Troy Vincent - $1.37 m
James Thrash - $1.3 m
Todd Collins - $1.25 m
Christian Fauria - $1.0 m
Mike Rumph - $1.0 m
Joe Salave'a - $710K
Pierson Prioleau - $710K
Lemar Marshall - $600K
Demetric Evans - $600K
Khary Campbell - $500K
Rock Cartwright - $450K
Nick Novak - $435K
My cut wish list is in bold. It's time to cut some serious fat and inject some youth into this team, especially on defense. Though I wouldn't mind seeing Vincent back again.

You are forgetting one big name. Clinton Portis. He has a HUGE number next year and it is possible that he may be playing elsewhere in 07. Re-sign Betts and Duckett and go with that combination. You know Gibbs likes the big back anyway and I think that is one of the reasons Duckett was brought in here. Becasue of the Portis situation next year. As good as Portis is it might make sense to move in another direction to place the big money he makes in other areas of need.
CP does have a huge number for next year and had he had a good season this year the skins might have been able to move him and avoid the big hit but he has been injury riddled this season and because of that I think his value has been diminished.
Portis isn't going anywhere.

we prob won't cut both backup QBs...and i don't mind tossing one of our overpaid lineman- trade for picks?

Do you guys realize we are gonna be in huge trouble in a couple years when ARE's and AA's contracts start becoming really expensive. I really hope ARE will restructure then, he seems really committed to the team.
THis may seem incredibly naive...but we've been hearing about how the salary cap is going to catch up to us for years- how our spending (however stupid) is going to kill us- etc. but last time I checked, every year we go out and spend money to aquire whatever toys we prize (with almost no regard for cost). it seems to me, as players can always restructure, and salaries can be spread over years, that no matter how much we spend, we will always make it work. The only time, that i see this system failing (in a financial sense-bc it has already failed in on-field performance) is if Synder sells, and the new owner doesn't subscribe to his push payments into perpetuity formula. is my logic fatally flawed here??

thats just nonsense. portis is our best player. betts and duckett both are free agents at seasons end. Look for betts to be back but duckett is out.

I agree. Nobody will want him because he is dinged. I see folks are talking about CP like they did LaVar.

You really think nobody would want CP??
He's not nursing a chronic knee like LaVar.
He's still a top back in this league, he would have no problem finding a new team.

What?! This is crazy talk. Portis will be back next year and be fine. I think it would be even better if we can get a great tackle in the draft as well.

Not for the $ he will command.
I know he's not nursing a chronic knee but he hurt his shoulder earlier and now his hand. IMO that would raise questions to others about whether CP is now injury prone.
He is a top back but he's expensive. RBs are a dime a dozen in this league and the most expendible of any position on the team. Teams (except for the skins) like to draft RB at a low cost and then have them outperform their contract.
