After the X restructure and Parker trade, we’re up to $21.8 million in 2022 cap room.

We could take that number to $30 million by cutting Eric Rowe and Adam Butler. And we could get above $35 million by also cutting or trading Cethan Carter, Myles Gaskin, and Adam Shaheen.

In short, we have a ton of money left to spend and are clearly making a conscious effort to create a lot of space for this off-season.

Any theories on who/what we’re up to? Most boring answer would be extensions for Gesicki and Wilkins.
 
Well we could still add a power runningback, maybe another depth wr to replace Parker’s spot, still need at least a backup C if the plan is to start Deiter, going to need to sign a DT to replace Butler if you cut him, need a backup NT, probably could add a #4 corner unless you expect Iggy to show improvement and still need a P. With only, what, 4 draft picks? Going to need some money to fill depth holes
 
Well a Gesicki extension would more than likely reduce our cap number further.

Without much of a rookie class to sign it’s encouraging to know we will roll a healthy amount into next year.

JC Tretter still makes the most sense.

Maybe Darryl Williams at RT and you can trade one of your two OTs.

I was hoping for some DT help. Another former Bill could fit that roll as well, Star Lotulelei.

Love a Good Center but as far as Tretter my fav, seems like he's asking to much at this point and fins not interested. Organ. said they wanted competition for Deiter but JC would Not be considered competition, more a legitimate Starter...

As far as a big ticket item see Tyrann Mathieu.
Deebo might, might? still be in their hopes but see him more next year.

But think Mathieu one of their top desires to get. JMO

They can’t get Deebo. You can’t pay two receivers $25 million or so per year. The cap money will be used to extend Wilkins most likely and carry forward to absorb cap increases next year. Maybe Tretter if they think he’s healthy. I expect Gesicki to play out the tag. Miami may want to see how Hunter Long develops before extending an offer to Gesicki.

I’m not complaining at all. The question was what are we going to spend that money on, I was pointing out that some depth holes that can be addressed using that money. Not sure how you understood my post as complaining

Not as a complaint.
Just pointing out that no matter how much we get, some folks are not entirely satisfied and want more.

In 2023 doesn’t Hill have a 50 mil cap hit, Howard has 25 mil, Armstead and Jones at 15 mil Each? That’s problematic.

And probably the reason Miami may be unable to re-sign, Wilkins, Needham and Gesicki next year. Although I read something after the Hill trade, that said Hill could be restructured in 2023, similar to what Miami did with Suh after, his 1st season in Miami.
