I'd look for the following moves:

Cut: Adam Archuleta as a Post June 1 move, (save $600K in 2007, absorb a $7 million deadcap hit in 2008)

Forced Paycuts: Mark Brunell and Reynaldo Wynn, if they don't accept, cut them to save $4.8 million in FY 2007 between the two of them)

Restructured Contracts (no pay reduction, just restructure): Jon Jansen, Randy Thomas, Shawn Springs, Cornelius Griffin, Marcus Washington, Clinton Portis, Casey Rabach. This could generate $10-15 million in cap space.

Resign: Derrick Dockery to a long term deal

They'll have the flexibility to keep it all together and make another free agency run, if they want to.

For more info on our cap situation, check out this thread:

If we do all that, the cap situations for 08 and 09 will be downright brutal. $7 million from Arch plus restructuring could put us over the cap in 2008 with about 25 players counting towards the 116 million figure. Too much pressure to win now, I don't like it.
