Curtis Lofton Released

Makes you wonder what kind of plan for his replacement is...

some decent talent left and ILB in FA that won't break the bank. We sign Langford to a one year. Get a replacement for Lofton in FA and defense defense defense in the draft

I have a gut feeling we're going after Foster.

ok i am getting all fired up for a new season of roast the Rob

I like this move, big picture: the money can be used to find a 3 down LB in free agency and a corner.

Question: what happens to the 5 million in dead money? WWL reported it saves the team 9.5 million towards the cap? Is that correct?

Any dead money will count against the cap,i guess the team will pay up any guaranteed money to Lofton.

If he was posted as a post june 1st cut it saves over 7ml against the cap

I would like that too

Who needs LBs anyway? We'll just play 6 safeties.

Mr.Riaton · 03-09-2015, 05:26 PM

I read the Bears might be interested in Foster. The biggest obstacle for us is convincing him to play for Ryan instead of Fangio...and the fact that we passed on him in the draft for Tez doesn't help us either,but who knows?
