    - Pouha - released
    - Devito - released
    - Holmes - restructured

    Above is recent. What's the cap look like now? How much do we have to play with?

    Nobody here knows, that's for fuckin sure. I'm not sure how anyone outside of the organization would ever get this kind of information.

    All the numbers we've seen are probably speculative.

    I really hope we can re-sign Landry now.

    Devito was a free agent, and depends on what the restructure was.

    After cutting Pouha, we were about $12 million under.

    I am looking for a ball park number.

    With all the reports coming out, I'm sure someone has numbers as to how much we saved with each move.

    I've heard we have about 15 mill in space, but it's a guess.

    This makes sense as we were about $12 mill in space after we cut Pouha. Holmes was due $11 mill with only 7.5 guaranteed.

    I wouldn't look for a large sum on 1 player.

    We need room to sign draft picks and maybe 1 or 2 players.

    We have a WR & RB visiting tomorrow. I expect Victor Butler maybe a possibility too.

    I would love to see us sign Victor Butler and Mike Goodson.

    As long as Goodson can stay healthy, he could be a diamond in the rough

    Victor Butler would be the perfect signing, a young player with lots of potential and won't break the bank.

    Him paired with a high draft pick at OLB would be great.

    I think, so far, Idzik has made good moves. We are in full blown rebuilding mode

    V Butler flashed in a limited role in Rob Ryan's D, which would be a seamless transition to ours most likely. He would be a good, probably cheap signing.

    Idzik isn't going to be flashy and mortgage our future, it's going to get better but may take a few years.

    Restructuring means he stays here longer...Nobody but the delusional wants that.

    He has no reason to, he knows it's his last solid contract.

    because that would mean extending him beyond 2013 when the franchise is likely to just let him go at the end of next season

    My guess would be around $15 million under the cap

    If we have consequential injuries maybe it gets that bad but I'm thinking more like 6 wins with some upside potential there since the QB play can't possibly be worse than it was last season.
