Which players will be gone....

The trouble is that the contracts are structured with massive signing bonuses that can make it even more costly to cut/trade a player than to keep them. It's a tough spot to be in and one that doesn't have an easy solution.

Not DeAngelo's. It's structured that we can cut him after this year and owe him nothing.

For example, DeAngelo Williams (since I know that's a common one people will bring up) would have a $9.6 million cap hit if released or traded this offseason as his signing bonus accelerates. That's slightly more than if we keep him, although it does free up a significant amount in the future. It's really going to take a year or two for the team to be in a good situation cap wise.

I suspect both DWill and Beason will be designated as post June 1st cuts to spread the hit out over two years.

As to others, we'll probably see a big shakeup on the O-line, with guys like Hangman gone and Gross offered a restructure with a paycut quietly implemented.

Godfrey is probably in trouble as well. Gamble will be offered a reasonable restructure to lessen his cap hit. If he doesn't bite, he may be let go, only because he is paid too much, not because he isn't good.

Hardy probably stays on roster but gets demoted eventually.

    • Good game so far.  Solid trench battles, two young well built defenses, and my 2 fave coaches.  Stafford is really damn good.  SEA OL is overperforming.  
    • Okay then. To me that means Russell Wilson was Coryell. Because I see the proposition completely in the Russell Wilson punt/pass put it up for grabs mold. Count on the receiver to catch it or knock it down.    And the reason I thought that was the intent with Legette is the abysmal downfield game from 2023. As in, there was barely any.   I look at it as if… the result of a deep attempt isn’t as important as the opponent understanding they have to defend it. So I was all for some 50/50s. Coryell, Walsh whoever.  I do favor the Coryell approach personally but also very much value versatility, it doesn’t have to be strict. Just make the defense defend the whole field, however you do it. It has to include downfield throws.     
    • Sold, or in the process of being sold. Could be either way. Consider this for a second... Last season, our defensive coordinator steered what many have called the worst defense in NFL history.  Canales would absolutely have been justified in firing him, and no one would have blamed him if he had.  But what did he do? He gave Evero another chance to come back and prove he could be better. Does that tell us something about Canales? I think it does. Now apply that to Bryce 😕
