An early list of possible June 1 cuts. Looks heavy at the WR spot.

 

[Piper]

I expect us to do what we did last year, threaten players such as Williams with pay cuts, and if they don't accept, buy-bye.

The rest will be gotten from restructuring Moose and/or Stussie.

 

[T_Schroll]

Riemersma wouldn't be a bad pickup **IF** he clears waivers and we could negociate a cheap one year deal with an option to resign him at a higher deal next year in case this is Walls last year. Only two CB's out there is scary considering Allen is probably retiring. Of course , Davis is still an option there,

WRs as a group are old and injury prone. With the lastest news on Jeffers, I'm beginning to wish we'd have taken one in the draft.

Batch in this offense might be decent, I might take a flyer on him also.

 

[McFly41]

It would be foolish to rework Williams when his cap hit next year would be $0. I'd dump him!

 

[magnus]

rework would mean paycut. It's worth a shot.

 

[McFly41]

I just like the number 0 in reference to Williams. If he is reworked and we dump him next year anyway, which I would think we will, it will cost us then.
Having Willaims as depth wouldn't break my heart. However, I would be glad to help him pack, too.

 

[Piper]

Well, we'd have to like whatever backup that's willing to work cheap better, if Williams agrees to take the cut. The cap savings is the same, regardless.

If not, I can drive him to the airport. He's a backup, and he'll have to take backup DE pay if he wants to stay.

No it wouldn't. This isn't a restructure, it's a pay cut. He'll cost nothing next year anyway.
