    Assuming Ramsey and Jonnu Smith are cut they’ll have another €26m

    We can probably assume that JPJ is getting a big extension and they sign a vet QB, but still, they’ll have a lot of room to work with

    I can’t imagine C. Anderson moves the needle much. I’d be inclined to keep him for O Line depth.

    2 mil. we have cook and jones and hopefully a draft pick. i'd keep spencer anderson but not calvin. :cool:

    After roster displacement that’s probably less than a million dollars though.

    There is probably a case to draft a project LT later in the draft and cut Anderson loose for team development reasons though.

    Queen definitely isn't worth 13 million a year, he doesn't come down hill and stop the run like those Houston ILBs does.

    no but we need to cut the dead wood and he and trice have been dead wood. over 3 mil. between the two. i'd rather see driscoll brought back instead of anderson. :cool:

    Agreed. Plenty of room to cut. Just a question of who replaces the departed.

    You guys know we go into each season looking to put the best team to compete with on the field. I don't think where we rank on this list will change that way of thinking. Those numbers are never hard fixed. Always fluid. As for who needs to get cut, I don't know that will come down to dollars either.


    We brought in Aaron Rodgers last off season and everything was quiet as usual, business as usual, out of the Steelers FO. I don't see there being much fanfare this time either. Maybe they will surprise me and do something different?
