The last one will be done at the last minute.
The team will wait and hope to trade Lofton and Galette.

From elsewhere
Galette's cap number is currently $15.45 million. After the bonus conversion, it would be $5.45 million.

So as long as they are within 10ml of the cap they can convert that roster bonus to a signing bonus at the last knockings.

From NOLA
The release of running back Pierre Thomas and signing bonus conversion of safety Jairus Byrd put the Saints at about $15.9 million over the cap, according to NOLA.com

So another $5.9ml freed up and Juniors bonus conversions and we hit the cap number though more space is needed for rookies etc but Lofton, Hawthorne,Grubbs,Evans,Bush.

Just cutting Grubbs and converting Junior takes the team to the cap number and then any other moves open space for FA and draft.

If anyone wants to see the costs of cutting players inc dead money etc,june 1st cuts over now
