Jenkins is entering the final year of his rookie contract. He'll make $2.4 million in base salary in 2013 with a salary cap figure of around $4 million. Jenkins had the sixth year of his deal voided shortly after the 2010 season.
Someone didnt see a future very early.

Keep dreaming people...

All the Rb's are coming back. Will Smith is gone. Lance Moore I figure he will take a hair cut and Harper will have to settle for low number as well or he'd be gone. He may also have to settle for a back up role.

There you have it.... Everyone is coming back except for Smith. The league will extend the roster to 60 so we can sign our draft picks and ignore us being 30 million over the cap.

I know Loomis will likely restructure several players but this kinda gives yo a good indicator who may be asked to restructure or clean out their locker..

Approximated cap savings if cut (hopefully some restructure)...

Cap hit minus dead money = Cap savings if cut
Will Smith - 13,902,451 - 2,352,451 = 11,550,000
Darren Sproles - 4,250,000 - 750,000 = 3,500,000
Jabari Greer - 5,825,000 – 2,650,000 = 3,175,000

Pierre Thomas – 2,900,000 – 0 = 2,900,000
Lance Moore - 5,068,750 - 2,357,500 = 2,711,250
Roman Harper - 5,870,000 - 3,690,000 = 2,180,000

Mark Ingram - 2,359,875 - 973,500 = 1,386,375
Patrick Robinson - 2,804,333 - 1,446,833 = 1,357,500
Well it looks like 5 out of the big 8 are now cut.

gone - all base salaries over 5 mill
Will Smith - 13,902,451 - 2,352,451 = 11,550,000
Darren Sproles - 4,250,000 - 750,000 = 3,500,000
Jabari Greer - 5,825,000 – 2,650,000 = 3,175,000
Lance Moore - 5,068,750 - 2,357,500 = 2,711,250
Roman Harper - 5,870,000 - 3,690,000 = 2,180,000

Hang in there
Pierre Thomas – 2,900,000 – 0 = 2,900,000
Mark Ingram - 2,359,875 - 973,500 = 1,386,375
Patrick Robinson - 2,804,333 - 1,446,833 = 1,357,500

Of the three i would say the least team impact player to cut
Patrick Robinson - 2,804,333 - 1,446,833 = 1,357,500

But at a relatively low 1.3 million in savings, I think its worth it to wait another season and see how he does under Ryan. IIRC he looked pretty good before getting hurt.
