re: Cap Room Saved From Ivory Trade

Use it for draft picks

Don't need it for draft picks. Looking at the top 51, Vaccaro is going to cost $1 mil(or $1.5) to the cap, and each 3rd rounder about $50,000. We had about $2 mil(or $2.5) before the Ivory trade, correct?

I remember we came out to having about $1 mil left after accounting for draft picks.

The $2 mil from Ivory will likely be rolled over because our cap situation next year will also be brutal. But if it is used this year it will likely be on a vet at a spot we feel we have a hole still. And that might not be until just before the regular season, maybe even after week 1.

Edit:
And I agree RT is a good spot to target, especially if we cut Strief giving us even more room. I think it's unlikely he'd get resigned as we have 2 young backups already. They have good vets out there at RT and that spot isn't overly expensive like LT.

Another good target is a vet OLB, or a WR if the youngsters aren't coming along.
