Mo C has been a HUGE disappointment up here in Death Star nation. Coming out of the draft, I truly thought he would be a difference maker. If he isn't on the field, he has been in the tub.

Not sure if this guy can stay healthy either

Do you think Dennis Allen and Aaron Glenn could turn things aroung for him?!?

Sign him to a team cap friendly contract...

He gets things turned around under the aforementioned tutelage...

That was my thinking at least by his mention in my post...

K Nick Novak

*Restricted

I'd resign these free agents:

QB Matt Flynn
RB Kendall Hunter
RB Tim Hightower
TE Ben Watson
TE Michael Hoomanawanui
CB Kyle Wilson
FS Raphael Bush

I'd Release the following for Cap Savings:

CB Brandon Browner
G Jahri Evans
OT Zach Strief
P Thomas Morstead

I just learned Browner doesn't save us any money, he has a dead money cap hit of 5.5(around that).

Only your savings are way out
Colston,cutting saves $3.2ml
Morstead $3.25
Strief $1.24
Browner saves $950k
And McCown and Williams saves nothing as they are FA

So dropping all them players just gets us under the cap and needing to replace them all

I'm laughing my a$$ off that Cheramie thinks we can sign Von Miller, Jason Pierre Paul AND Terrence Knighton.

CheramieIII · 01-17-2016, 06:14 PM

We can save about 20 million without even the restructure of Drew. We've always found a way in the past and they will find a way next year.

I'm leery of Jason Pierre Paul with his back surgery in 2013 and then the firework injury in July; but Von Miller would automatically put our defense on the map again

I seriously doubt we can afford him though

We're not going to get him.

Interior Offensive Linemen
Young guns that may be had. Oh but at what cost?
Kelechi Osemele LG Baltimore
Ramon Foster LG Pittsburgh

Tried and true solid vet
Evan Mathis LG Denver

Go out and kick some tires list
Tony Bergstrom - is of serious interest. zone blocker on a power blocking team. DA knows the kid
Johnnie Troutman

I dont get releasing Strief for cap purposes. It saves 1.3ml. Youll never get as good back up for that money. My guess is he'd take a paycut for one more go round
