You're the GM.  What do you do.

Here's some guys who can be cut this offseason without a hit to our Cap.  

So who would you cut?

If cut how do you plan filling that hole?

Shaq Thompson (cutting him saves 9mil, he is on the 5th year option)

Matt Kalil (saves money post June 1)

Poe (save roughly 3 or 6 post June)

Captain Munnerlyn (saves 2.5 or 4.5 post June 1)

Torrey Smith (saves 5)

Danoris Searcy (saves 3)

 

Cant cut anyone with a plan to replace 

 

Go

okay, sit down folks.  take a deep breath. 

anyone who is 33 years of age or older that is playing in 2018.  Wouldn't be playing in 2019.  I'd start there.  

and that doesn't follow your rules but it is what it is.   I would literally rip the entire emotional band-aid with the fanbase all in one offseason.   

Yes, it will be sad.  Yes, you could argue some could still play, locker room, etc.  But I think big picture we would be better moving on now from all of them now all at once.

The Baby Jesus Rule. If you've outlived the baby Jesus then you can no longer participate. I like it. And a rule for the holidays no less. :tongue:

Go

Thompson - Keep

Kalil - Cut. Replace by resigning Darryl Williams. Replace depth through draft/FA.

Poe - Keep.

Captain - Flip a coin. I don't consider him as bad as some. Not terribly difficult to replace either.

Torrey Smith - Cut. Never saw anything worth $5 mil. Replace through draft/FA.

Searcy - Cut. No reason to retain older players at this position. Replace through draft/FA.

I like, but cut Munny although he played real good last night.

I’d send Cam to I.R today.

Fire Rivera after season ( he’s only one capable of calling Defensive plays so have to keep him until seasons end)

I’d Cut Matt Kalil, Munnerlyn, Smith and Searcy.

Move Moton to LT, resign Williams to play RT

I’d offer TD a 1 year deal for 2.5 Million to return for one last year if he wants to return with the understanding he may not start.

Id offer Eric Reid and Chris Clark deals similar to what they have now but up to 2 years in length or even 3 as long as we have easy out in third year.

Let Ryan Kalil, Peppers and Adams walk or retire 

Use free cap space to target biggest positions of need. For me that’s DE, interior O-line, Safety, Nickel corner(can compete with Cockrell) and DT tackle depth behind Short and Poe.

Id offer Butler up for a 4th round pick or trade bait to move up in the draft. 

Go BPA in draft every round outside of MLB and RB

CUT--he is not worth $3m.  Has been disappointing.

Matt Kalil (saves money post June 1) Cut him, keep his wife.

Poe (save roughly 3 or 6 post June)  Hard to say--could we find better for $3m?  I say keep him, find better depth.

Captain Munnerlyn (saves 2.5 or 4.5 post June 1) Cut him twice post June 1

Torrey Smith (saves 5)  Cut

Danoris Searcy (saves 3)  Keep.  He is good depth at best, may have to start.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room (behind him anyway). Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
