Being that i'm not a salary cap guru I really can't say. Unless you want to throw all salary cap ramafications of cut players aside and just cut willy-nilly?

Good point. While there isn't a salary cap for 2010, it isn't like you can just cut wildly without having ramifications down the road when presumably there will be a cap.

If this were Madden though instead of reality then you could play along and not worry about it.

just cutting willy-nilly I would say...

-Jake - thanks for the good times but you aren't a backup or competition

-Moose- thanks for the good times but in another year you will be too painful to watch and we don't need a TE playing WR

-Jarrett - thanks for the good times and now go to an offense that will let you play like a fairy yet take advantage of your hands.

*Charles Godfrey - congrats on a stong finish and noticeable improvement....as you were on pace to make the list but can stay....but I still felt the need to call you out based on 85% of your career starts being so pathetic (but you are young).

Perfect example of why you need salary money and contract info to make decisions. All of these sound good on the surface but you wouldn't make any of these moves.

Moose is not under contract for 2010 so you can't cut what you don't have.

Jake gets paid whether he plays or not. No need to cut him until the ned of prseason or camp if at all.

Jarrett and Godfrey are on their rookie contracts and are very cheap. You wouldn't cut either unless you thought they weren't good enough to be 3rd or 4th in depth. And IMO they are clear good enough for a roster spot.

    • I've been hearing all about this "winning culture" for years while watching us piss away top shelf draft position with meaningless late season wins when we're already eliminated from the playoffs but being assured this is building "winning culture" just to inevitably suck again next year. With that said, I'll always take a playoff berth. Just make the dance and you have a chance to make some noise. But spare me the "winning culture" bullshit.
    • Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.     
    • With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4.
