I'm going to do the whole off season while I still can! This is my final one and we will just see how correct I am. Remember the rule of 51 and the signings do not include the minimum already being paid but represent the new dollars that need to be spent above that mark
Over the cap 7M
Restructure Wilfork - save 4m
Extend Revis - save 10m
Restructure Mayo - save 4m
Restructure Amendola - save 2m
Extend Solder - save 3m
Cut/Trade Dennard - save 1m
Cut/Trade/Restructure Wilson & Hooman - save 1m
25 - 7 = 20m to use. Also 3M set aside for emergency gives you 15m max.
McCourty - 5M (goes up next year & long term deal)
Connolly - 3.5M (1 year OR another vet on a 1 year deal)
Gost - 3M (long term)
Develin/Casillas/Siliga/Aiken/ect - Other odds and ends - 2.5M
Notable loses - Branch, Vereen, Ayers & Ridley
No trade downs or ups to make it easier.
#32 - Diggy - DE (maybe Armstead but I think a DE/OLB/pass rusher is the best idea here and will be available)
#64 - Tevin Coleman - RB
#96 - Marpet - OL
3rd comp #97 - Hardison -DT (using Mayo's binkie's but any number of combos of OL/DL could work).
#102 - Tre McBride - WR
#132 - Olomu - CB (Arrington replacement being only 5'9 his injury us gonna knock him way down as he might not even play in 2015).
I usually use cbssports for my rankings. While I like every pick you made. I think you were quite optimistic that these guys will be available.
CBS
Odighizuwa - 25
Coleman - 61 - Certainly could be there.
Marpet - 80
Hardison - 101 - Certainly could be there.
McBride - 84
Olumu - 114
