Re: Cap sheet update - 11/23
I think this is the only board that provides this type of information.
The first thing that jumps out at me is the [release fee] / [cap savings] ratio (if there is such a metric) of some aging veterans on defense, including:
Shawn Springs 2.48m / 8.48 m
Marcus Washington 2m / 6.5m
Jason Taylor 0m / 8.5m
Cornelius Griffin 2.5m / 6.1m
Just spit-balling here but let's say that Taylor, Washington and Springs are cut. This means we open up about 23.5 of cap room, which you have to think they are gearing up for in what promises to be an incredibly strong free agent off-season that includes some young lineman like Julius Peppers, Albert Haynesworth, Will Smith and Tommie Harris.
You have to think that they are going to be targeting at least one marquee free agent defensive lineman and possibly a linebacker and offensive lineman as well (Guard is a definite possibility with Kendall on the way out).
