I think we still will try to resign him next year but both parties are happy to see what happens. KK will not have any excuses this year. On both sides of the line we have pass rushers who can get to the QB and demand respect. So if he disappears like last year we will let him walk if he's talking 17 mill like this year.

We could franchise him again and still be under 17 but we lose the flexibility of prorating and bonuses.

Yeah, I still think we'll try to get something done with him I just don't think it's gonna happen. I think Short wants top of the market money and if Butler develops it's probably in our best interest to simply let someone else give Short that contract. Short will also be 29 at the end of this season. He was older than most entering the draft.

Yep. The fear would be he wants even more next year. Or we pay him and he has another average year once he is not continuing to play on a contract year.

All that factors and is why we got Butler.

My best estimate is around $5 million or so left in room. If we extend Kalil and Olsen, and reach some kind of injury settlement with Oher, I think we're back up to around 12-17 million. That isn't even counting savings from cutting Andy Lee or Ed Dickson, or extending Turner and/or Lotulelei (moves that I think will happen sometime down the road.)

I don't think we're done in FA.

Why we cut one of the best punters in the league we traded a 4th rounder for
