    Any way we can compile a list here? I used to get data on the from the nflpa site, but i think it's no longer available there.

    Who are the most obvious? Gamble, Beason, a running back?

    Do we save ANYTHING for 2013 on those dudes? Who can we save in 2013 by cutting? Who is it best to take a hit on in 2013 to have cleared for 2014?

    Seems like there's alot to discuss here, and I know there was another thread but I couldn't really follow it.

    There aren't a lot of options don't involve June 1st cuts (push the rest of the bonus money into the following season's cap). If the team was rebuilding then you could trade Gross & Gamble both to get younger with extra picks and to create room, but the late season winning streak means they won't do that. Restructuring will also create some room, but not a ton.

    would save some touchdowns by cutting Gamble... not sure what it would save in the cap

    Beason will restructure to stay, I would really hate to lose either RB... I think we need them both.


    Gross we have to keep. Sorry, just no getting around it, we have too many other holes to fill without creating one where he is.

    Beason's suddenly very expendable.

    Is he uncuttable right now? I'd be curious about that new contract he got.

    The Thomas Davis contract is such a fucking mess.

    So if Gettleman does blow up the roster and purges all of the salary cap Hurney screw ups does Ron even have a fighting chance? Not saying that is what is going to happen but if it does doesn't that set up whoever the HC is to fail?

    that's what they did to Fox when they went cheap & young...

    Gettleman gets the gig w a built in scapegoat so it really doesn't matter what we do the next 2 seasons... I'm sure it's a 5 year plan

    If I'm JR I want a plan I live to see through. So not so sure about the 5 year plan.
