[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 848274"] The Packers already have $184 mil in cap committed to contracts for next season. That's for only 40 players including none of the names in your OP list. You're going to reduce that by by $12.6 mil by releasing Graham ($8 mil in savings) and Taylor ($4.6 mil in savings). There are no other notable candidates for cap savings. That gets you to roughly $171 mil for 38 players with around $9 mil currently in unspent cap to be carried over. A signing of any vet of note before the trade deadline (Sanu, for example) would eat into the carryover and also count against the cap next year if he's got another year on his contract as with the case with Sanu. We also don't know what Clark's extension might look like if there is one. Even without those variables you'll have the upper round picks to pay, filling out the roster, paying the PS, having to double up with guys on PUP or IR, yada, yada. I think you might need to be more selective in your choices. You also have to think about another possibility, going into the free agent market for an expensive player at one of these or other critical spots. You might be dropping Allison? Well, maybe we need to sign a quality FA slot receiver whether Allison walks or not. I doubt he'll be back, but that's just a sense, not a committed opinion. Those are broad bush strokes with indications of where your cap might be. The details are premature. [/QUOTE]
