Cut Grant, Hurns, and Wilson. They are all over priced and need to be upgraded. I don't even care about the money saved by cutting them. That's just an added benefit.
Just randomly cut players before camp even opens? Never mind worrying about whether our new players actually play well or get through camp injury free?Cut Grant, Hurns, and Wilson.

Fedj needs to be gone, I think Smythe is expendable if needed. That’s $5M right there.
Smythe is nothing special and very easily replaced with another starting h-back and TE.Smythe is this team's starting TE and h-back. Hes not going anywhere.
Because they are not playing up to the level of their contract. You can replace all three of those guys with street free agents or rookie draft picks and get an upgrade in level of play or a reduction on the salary cap or possibly both. Those three guys are just plain not good enough and should be replaced. Cut the dead weight. It’s obvious.Just randomly cut players before camp even opens?

Why would you do that?

Especially if we draft Pitts like a lot of people want.
Well they have drafted Gesicki and Cox and traded for Shaheen. Out of that bunch Smythe turned out to be the most reliable all around player. Maybe hes not something special but he hasn't been so easily replaced.
Pitts looks like an incredible player and also looks like he spent about as much time with his hand in the dirt as Gesicki. Believe it or not teams still do need TEs that can block and until the Phins find someone better Smythe is going to have a place on this team.
You think that you could cut these guys, sign players for less... and get an upgrade?!!Because they are not playing up to the level of their contract.

Absolutely correct... Smythe fills the block first role on our team... and he isn't a bad red-zone target either.Well they have drafted Gesicki and Cox and traded for Shaheen.

Read what I said. I said you will either get an upgrade in talent or a savings in salary or possibly both. You don't believe that's possible? Any rookie drafted after the second round will earn less than Grant, Hurns, or Wilson.You think that you could cut these guys, sign players for less... and get an upgrade?!!
Where can I find these magic beans?
