Haralson plays the run very well and comes cheap.

You keep Greer and Harper off of restructures. If they are unwilling then cut them, but you can restructure them to a point where you would only save 500k cutting them... doesn't make sense to do that.

As far as cutting more people; it gets really tight. Everyone in this thread talks about cutting Buckley but if you look at his 6.1m cap number but 5m in dead money cutting him to save 1.1m doesn't make sense.

The more I think about it i don't know if we can afford to keep Graham. If we keep him we might lose 3-4 starters through cuts alone. We have had the #1 offense without Graham in the past, is he really worth it?
