Re: Time to start releasing players?
Without a Defensive Coordinator its foolish to release anyone on the defensive side of the ball.

Re: Time to start releasing players?
I agree with the top 4 but Ellis is already a UFA...he's gone regardless.

Re: Time to start releasing players?
I agree almost completely however I think I would part ways with Patrick Robinson & Harper NOW. Patrick puts me in the mind of the Fred Thomas days and Harper simply can't anticipate QB's tendencies or cover in space.

Re: Time to start releasing players?
Egg Ellis#1 followed by Vilma, Smith and Jenkins, we might be able to get something for Jenkins and Smith in a trade for picks. Now as much as I hate to say this Shanle, only because time has caught up to him, although he is heavy enough to play inside but not fast enough. I don't have a clue what to do with Harper, although he might be a good rover{Polomolue) type, depending on what type of 3-4 we run, so the verdict is out on him, although we could get a great deal in trade or picks if the right team came along.

You can cut with out the hit. At least that's how I read it.
"Okay...this helps the team in the first few years of the contract, but what happens in the later years when the salary begins to escalate? Answer: The team can do one of two things. They can either outright release the player (to avoid having to pay his salary all together) or they can renegotiate a more "cap friendly" contract." http://www.askthecommish.com/SalaryCap/faq.aspx |
