[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 884018, member: 6578"] This has been hashed out quite a bit but over numerous pages and even threads....in essence we need to resign or lose the following "bigger" UFA names in 2021: Bahk Aaron Jones Linsley King Jamaal Williams Lesser or Most agree not as pivotal: Lane Taylor Ervin Marcedes Lewis Now also factor in possible cuts to save $, you have: Lowry - due 6.3M but $3M in dead Ricky Wagner - Due $6M, only 1.75 Dead Christian Kirksey - Due $8M, $2M dead....if Barnes and Martin (Summers too) make Gute feel better about 2021 Kirksey could be a cap cut. Oren Burks - Due $1.15M, $205K dead....he is an easy nearly million gain by cutting. Billy Turner - Due $8.05M, $4.5 dead cap The Smiths, Amos also start costing crazy amounts more from 2020 to 2021...those three guys go up nearly or around $10M together. That cluster of 5 guys at the top, If we resign Bahk and Jones we lose the following three and face some other cuts elsewhere too most likely. Guys like Sullivan would need contracts, a guy like Lazard also needs a contract.... I've shared I'm torn...I don't want to lose Bahk and Jones both...but at what cost to the rest of the roster do we do this?? Linsley gone is big chunk of change off the books...cutting Wagner gets us about $4M more...throw in Burks also...but we cannot afford IMO to lose Turner also...we cannot afford to have resigning them both cost us King and risk an inability to resign Jaire in the future and Sullivan to something for 2021....too big of a gap/hole. Kirksey is another one...do we roll our dice and save money for the now and bank on Barnes/Martin/Summers+likely 2021 draftee/UDFA? This is all a tough call and honestly I don't think there is a clear answer...happy I'm not the one burdened with the call... [/QUOTE]
