We have $7 million in cap space. If you are not going to use it on a Pro Bowl CB, then on what?

Marlon Humphrey**, CB, Alabama
Height: 6-0. Weight: 197. Arm: 32.75.
40 Time: 4.41.
Projected Round (2017): Top-20 Pick.
3/25/17: Humphrey has a superb skill set with the size to match up against big wideouts and enough speed to run with speed receivers. He has quick feet, physicality, length, and is agile to run the route with wideouts. Humphrey is well-developed and should be quality starter quickly in his NFL career. Some teams have Humphrey as their top-rated cornerback.

In 2016, Humphrey totaled 33 tackles with two tackles for a loss, two interceptions and five pass breakups. He had an excellent season opener against USC as he shut down wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, holding him to one catch for nine yards. Humphrey also had an interception returned 18 yards for a touchdown and a tackle for a loss.

Humphrey is a well-rounded prospect who does everything well. Sources feel that Humphrey's only real flaw is that he had issues playing the ball in 2016. He is very good at preventing separation as he can vertically stay with speed wideouts and run the routes with receivers, but some opponents made catches over him. Against Arkansas, Humphrey gave up a few receptions, including a touchdown. He also had a rough game against Ole Miss as he gave up a few completions downfield, including a score. On those plays, Humphrey was close to the receivers and not allowing separation, but they were making receptions over him and he wasn't doing a good job of playing the ball. That is the one issue that Humphrey needs to fix for the NFL.

9/3/16: In speaking to sources at multiple teams, they really like Humphrey and already view him as a high first-round talent. Teams feel he has a great skill set with size, speed and athleticism. After redshirting in 2014, Humphrey had an excellent debut to help Alabama win the National Championship. He earned a starting job across from Cyrus Jones and Humphrey was the Crimson Tide's top corner. In 2015, Humphrey totaled 45 tackles with three interceptions and eight passes broken up. He could take his game to another level in 2016.

There's nothing else out there, and it fills an immediate need. Butler has had his ego checked in the past month and knows he isn't getting 13 a year.

We are carrying $13 million in dead money this year, so that number drops, and next year, and Loomis will redo some deals and recoup some more. We are fine

with a cap hit of about $2,300,000.
What do you want to do with the rest?
