Re: Lions Signed Analzone, Would They Want Peat?

Over the cap says a post june 1 trade of peat would save us 1 million. Thats 1 million that can go to whatever free agent addition will play when peat gets hurt anyway. The Lions wanted Analzone, so I could imagine they could want peat.

Dead cap we currently have is over $22.6M. 5th worse in the league..., but that’s without DB#9’s post 6/1 dead money hit which is an additional $12+M. Dead money reduces our current cap ceiling. You make that trade and we’ll be in the neighborhood of a $40M dead money cap reduction, post 6/1. For reference, that’s roughly 22% of our cap ceiling reduced, inclusive of that trade scenario.

I’m just not a fan of reducing my cap by $4.6M to free up $1M immediately.
