Only thing I need help with is new deal estimations.

As it stands this is what I did(still plenty more I can do):

Cut
Smith

Restructure(down to vet minimum)
Brees
Evans
Grubbs
Colston
Bunkley

Franchised
Graham

ERFA
Harris

RFA 2nd Round
Bush
Morgan

RFA Original Round
Johnson
Collins

Vet Minimum Deal
Haralson

New Deals
Strief 3 years
Jenkins 5 years

And I'm $326,524 under. Strief and Jenkins are getting about $3 mil a year.

Didn't even touch guys like Moore, Sproles, Greer, and Thomas yet. This was really just a test run to see what could be done without being exact and touching everything that can be touched.

Basically, if we want we can get all our free agents back we want and even have money for another 2 or 3 new guys easy depending on who stays or goes.

Now if Graham gets the TE designation we may actually do well leaving him on the tag. But if he gets the WR designation we pretty much have to get a long term deal worked out if we want to bring in new starter free agents.

Make a June 1 cut on Greer and save 4.5 mil.

Did all that you did and I am 7,904,857 under the cap.

Hate to see him go out like he did. But an aging corner on a surgically repaired wheel is not a good option to have in a passing league.
