hey, here's a problem... there's 13 uncuttable players. releasing everyone (EVERYONE) saves about 29,823k. Signing 40 players to complete the roster at 235k each costs 9,400k.

29,823k - 9,400k = 20,423k total savings with 40 1st year rookies.

Not to alarm anyone, but here's our cap situation:
2006 total cap cost (dead money + 2006 salaries) - $116,793k
2006 cap - $95,000k

116,793k - 95,000k = 21,793k.

since we can save a maximum of 20.4mill and we need to cut 21.8mill, this is a fool's erand. with restructures it simply can't be done.

40 rookies and we'll still be 1.4mill in the hole... we're totally hosed.
