re: Eye to the Future: Looking at the 2014 Cap(pre-rookie signings)/Detail Intense

Evans Colston and Grubbs

Yeah those 3 are going to take up a good chunk of cap and aren't worth cutting(or can't be in Colston's case).

In 2015 Brees is going to be the biggest jump($8 mil more). Lofton and Hawthorne also get sizable bumps that year.

We're going to have to work around these 4 guys for the next 2 years(2014 and 2015).

Smith is all but gone next year, at least on that option year.

Harper won't be back at his current contract no matter how well he plays. He'll be extended or cut.

Not sure on Hawthorne as they don't list the dead money, but I think his restructure this year made it unlikely. Edit: After checking it seems he could be a potential cap cut.

Bunkley saves very little($500,000) so it's not worth cutting him.

Chamberlain is likely gone unless he outplays the youngins.

Greer could be a cap casualty, but I'm uncertain about how much he has left in guarantees next year. Edit: After checking it seem he could be a cap cut.

PT looks the part of a cap casualty or an extension.
