[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 759359, member: 10086"] It’s going to be a tough decision but someone’s gotta go. The current math doesn’t add up to being conducive to shopping in FA. (Thank You Hard Right Edge, nice work) The more I look at it, the only way to keep the trifecta of Cobb, Jordy AND CLay is to shave 10-12M from their combined contracts. Another approach would to cut 1, reduce another with a modest reduction on a short term deal and then get a hometown discount of a couple $Mill/year on the other with a multi year deal. That could put us back reasonably into the 40M range to go grocery shopping at the A&P Food Market without being overly hungry and frivolously overspending. The WR draft runs deep like RB did last year. Let’s also remember who’s throwing the ball here, Aaron can make a 3rd rounder look like a 1st round pick. We also have 12 picks according to overthecap including an extra 3rd rounder. We likely now have 4 picks in the 5th round. We need to be prepared to be aggressive in contract restructuring to mitigate the bleeding. We can go out on the free market and get 80-90% of their recent production for roughly 50% their current cost and let’s face it, CLay and Jordy are deep into the back 9 of a golf career that has shown more bogies than birdies. I’d like to see us contemplate using one or two 5th rounders (or combination of that and another late round pick) as leverage to trade up and nail it by end of day 2 with some weapons for Rodgers. Edge, WR, TE, LB [/QUOTE]
