re: 2014 Saints Salary Information

We have some bad contracts in there. Not much room for flexibility, as cutting most of these guys would be worse than keeping them.
Cutting Harper would be idiotic. His cap figure next year is $5.9 mil against the cap, but it will be $5.3 mil if we cut him. That's saving $600k, but having an empty roster spot to fill.
Cuttin PRob doesn't seem to help much either, so I can't see us doing that.
Cutting Smith is a no-brainer. That's adding $10 mil in cap space, which should be enough to use on Graham.
As for the FAs on that list:
Vilma - gone
Brown - gone
DLP - probably gone
Jenkins - resigned if cheap enough
Strief - resigned
Graham - $$$

The problem with that is that, as of now, we are -8 million in the red. So even if we don't resign any of the FA, that only frees up 8 or 9 million total by cutting Will Smith. We need to cut Sproles too.
