[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 951732, member: 6578"] Okay someone much better at Cap discussions correct or help here....I'm still struggling to see how we're going to get under the cap and retain what all we want to + afford the draft (trading back to shave some cap LOL?) Presently, prior to Rodgers deal structure known...it looks like the Packers are approximately $45M over the cap... Zadarius getting cut is the only surefire NO BRAINER - saves us $15,281,250 [B][COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]$45M[/COLOR] - Z cut = [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]$29.7M[/COLOR][/B] Rodgers from what many of you are telling us, cannot save us more than around $20M due to prorated bonus from previous deal hitting or something like that correct? [B]Let's assume yes, [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]$29.7M[/COLOR] - $19M (conservative savings for Rodgers) = [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]$10.7M[/COLOR][/B] Before we can even get under the cap we need to save $10.7M Extending Jaire is estimated to lower the cap hit around an addition $5-$8M depending on bonus and proration (void years could lower) [B]Let's use the lowest conservative figure shaving his hit around $5M...[COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]$10.7M[/COLOR] - $5M = [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]$5.7M[/COLOR][/B] At this point some extensions, restructures, cuts on some guys have to be done: Preston Smith is one with a hit of $19.72M that could free up the most. Some argue cut, I say extend personally, could lower his hit and save as much as $7M I've seen reports say... [B]Let's say extend and save $7M... [/B][COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)][B]$5.7M[/B][/COLOR] [B]- 7M =$1.3M[/B] We are finally good to cap...but that isn't even enough to resign Lazard if we place the lowest RFA tender...or sign the draft class. Amos restructure would save around $4.7M Crosby cut would save around $2.395M Cutting Cobb saves around $6.8M Restructuring Lowry could save around $3M Those four moves net us about $16.895M and would put us capable of bringing back our ERFA in Henry Black, Yosh, Krys Barnes all cheap + Lazard tender + draft class. What it doesn't do is allow much activity in FA or attempting to bring back any of our UFAs [/QUOTE]
