Loomis you got your work cut out for you next year bud!

Brees restructure alone gets the team back into the black. And there's no way they're keeping Lofton and Bunkley at their salaries. Making just those three moves, you're already $7 million under the cap, and yes I am counting dead money. Evans and Grubbs restructures would save another $7-8 million, that's a conservative estimate.

Loomis can keep on doing this year after year until Brees retires, at which point we are probably doing a full-scale rebuild.
