If they really wanted to they could find another $38m.They could jump to #2 if they cut Cannon and a few other players.

Not sure how good of a team they'd have after though...
My understanding is that’s exactly what‘s going to happen, they’re currently negotiating new TV deals and the NFL is asking for the moon (and might get it):This is the lowest the cap has been since 2017. Teams made deals expecting the cap to go up year after year. The next few years could be down cap-wise barring some blockbuster new TV contracts.
The Hightower negotiation is the one to watch. He'll be 31 in a couple of days. If they keep him they'll shell out $8.9m in cash.They could get a crap load of money and make the team no worse than last year if they cut Hightower, Cannon, and Edelman. I don't see them cutting Hightower. I think they will give Edelman a chance to rehab and come back, but that could change this summer if he isn't responding well. I think Cannon will be forced to take a pay cut or be cut.
IMO we have to keep Hightower. We have zero at the position.The Hightower negotiation is the one to watch. He'll be 31 in a couple of days. If they keep him they'll shell out $8.9m in cash.
Preference is they extend him to next year. Guarantee some money in 2021 and kick some to 2022 and as a byproduct realize cap savings this year. Win-win.
Chase and Uche are boys and unproven as stopping the run.IMO we have to keep Hightower. We have zero at the position.

Watch Bill not sign anyone until end of April waiting for middle class vets w/o deals to take whatever scrap deal he throws at them. This place will go ballistic.
