Who Is Still On The Roster Next Season?

Recommended Posts

If I am cho I keep the following:

Kemba - due to make roughly 2.6 mil next year with a two year team option the following offseason and a qualifying option for 2015.

Hendo - has a 4.2 mil one year offer sheet on the table this offseason.

Bismack - due to make roughly 3 mil next year with a two year team option the following offseason and a qualifying option for 2015.

Derrick (bench) - UFA

Mullens (bench) - 2.2 club option for the upcoming season and a qualifying offer the following year of a little over 3 mi.

DJ White (bench) - 1 yr. 3 mil remaining

Wiliams (bench) - 1 yr. 2.5 mil remaining

Thomas (bench) - 3 yr. 26 mil remaining (roughly). Considering he is pretty much untradable due to his contract I think you keep him coming off the bench. He has shown flashes of his old self rarely..but more so towards the end of the season.

Contract Obligations:

Carroll - is in the last year of his deal..making 3.5ish..might be attractive to a team for his expiring...if not just keep him inactive.

Diop - is owed 7.3 next year..but is also in the last year of his deal..might be a nice expiring for a team. if not just keep him inactive.

Maggette - is owed 10.9 and is also going to be in the last year of his deal...he might be more likely to be delt..if healthy..due to his expiring. If not..just let him expire..freeing up even MORE capspace.

Cut/Release Candidates

Eduardo - is a UFA..so he isn't coming back (if i am GM).

Augustin - did not sign his offer sheet..so if he isn't delt on draft day..he is probably walking for nothing.

Higgins - is gone (if i am GM).

Moon - is gone (if I am GM)

I really see the 'Cats as a good bench squad...especially with Mullens, Brown, Wiliams, and White. Kemba, Hendo, and Biz are probably going to start along with Maggette. Add a rookie to the bench and hopefully Davis..this is team is still staring at a top five pick next year. Hopefully that will be Shabazz Muhammad. Just my two cents.

Augustin will still be a RFA so we can match whatever offer he gets from another team if we want to. Other than that I'm pretty much with you.

One thing we need to keep in mind is we still have the amnesty clause we can use. I feel like we are another year away from going after some big free agents, so I don't think we will use it. Still Thomas would probably be my choice if we did. Carroll, DIop and Maggette will all be off the books after next year. If we amnesty Thomas we would have LOADS of cap space.

If anything, the 'Cats will be in GREAT shape a year from in terms of cap space and young talent.

I agree that Thomas may be an amnesty candidate...especially with how well Mullens and White seem to be playing off the bench. A crowded front line with the addition of Davis (hopefully) will further justify that case.

If there were not contracts and obligations..I would only want to keep a handful of guys:

Kemba, Henderson, Bismack, Mullens, Augustin, Williams, White, and maybe Derrick Brown.

Most of them would be decent role players/bench guys and are young enough with enough potential to be considered assets and trade peices. There maybe two or three decent starters in the group one day..Henderson/Kemba/Biz. Add a draft pick this year and two next year...things would be looking up.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
