re: Now that the draft is over, any vet cap casualties? Day 1 LT starter?

quote:

Zach Strief- Cap hit $2.375 mill this year. Prorated bonus in total is only $500k.

Signed his deal in 2011, so it should only be $250k, but the difference is pretty insignificant.

RT, Winston, Clabo (not sure if any of these can slide over),

Doubt they can play LT, but either would be huge upgrades over Strief at a minimum cost (after cutting him) and I think the Saints have to be considering it.

I also think, at this point, the Ravens aren't interested in McKinie and that he'll cost dirt cheap.

Taking your word with the rest of the savings, I still don't see us cutting Jenkins. I'd prefer Seymour over Smith as a guy to move around both end positions, but I think Seymour is interested in coming back at a cheap price. Either way, if we cut Jenkins or Smith, I think we'd need someone in mind to replace them as would be the case with Strief/Winston/Clabo.
