anybody know this guy?

don't think I've ever linked anything from Bleacher Report evah but this guy has done some good homework.

His math is a net $18,830,000 for cutting all three. pretty staggering the more ya think about it. For a $123mil cap that's over 15% of the entire payroll. Then step away from the cap and just ask this- Would I rather Smith, Vilma, & Harper for almost $19million or just go with Broughton, Chamberlain, & Bush for $2.5mil total. Methinks I could get a lot more out of that $17million.

Yes, it is. I'll give a pass to Loomis on these, but he has to a better job going forward or we're toast.

BTW: Everyone knew the Smith contract was out of whack when it was signed but it didn't matter too much because there's was plenty of money to throw around (no $20 mill a year Brees contract).
