It's better to have a tough decision on who to cut than have to keep a guy(s) who you're not really confident in.

Norwell is under contract for another year w a 5.1M cap hit in 2023.

Interesting bonus structure w 3 void years added after 2023. I dont really understand it.

Cut pre June = 2.8M dead cap
Post June = only 700k

Norwell is serviceable imo, if hes our weakest OL starter next year, Im fine with it.

This FO and OL coach Matsko have done a decent job in identifying good value FA additions in FA and I imagine we could plug 2 starter OL guys from FA if needed.
