I glad you mentioned dead money. That dead money could have been avoided by simply not cutting those players and keeping them on the roster taking up a needed roster spot while counting MORE toward the cap than the dead money amount. Sometimes it is best to take the hit. You only have 53 roster spots. That is not that many. Not all franchises would do that.

I also agree completely about the defensive coordinators. Some around here must not have a problem with that point as they are wishing that door would take yet another turn. Hopefully Payton has learned that lesson. Just has he has learned from the past draft mistakes. After bringing in Jeff Ireland, the draft results over the past two years have been mush better, don't you agree?
