First our UFA's
Dion Sims
Jordan Cameron
Dion Jordan
Andre Branch
Jermon Bushrod
John Denney
Spencer Paysinger
Donald Butler
TJ Yates
Michael Thomas
Dominique Jones
Bacccari Rambo
Jelani Jenkins
Kenny Stills

Then our RFA's:
Kiko Alonso
Damien Williams
Nick Williams

Next, some players that some people might consider cutting and their cap savings:
Brandon Albert: 7.2 mil
Mario Williams 8.5 mil
Mike Pouncey 3.975 mil
Byron Maxwell 5.5 mil
Koa Misi 4.2 mil
Earl Mitchell 4 mil
Kraig Urbik 1.25 mil

The two websites used are listed above.
Now, who should we resign? Who should we cut?
 
Doubt Maxwell and Pouncey are going anywhere

Add Paysinger cut Bushrod if he doesn't retire.
 
I would consider releasing Albert. He is getting paid big money and is regressing. You can move Tunsil out there and get a decent guard while saving money.

Don't need to resign Rambo. His coverage, pursuit angles, and tackling or lack there of in the last few weeks of the season was terrible. Could easily see why he didn't have a team before we called. Otherwise I agree with the rest of the list.

Rambo was cut for a reason! He can't diagnose plays fast enough and he's a poor tackler.

He has to restructure or we absolutely should cut him. That salary would be put to better use on a free agent guard with more durability.
 
I'd cut Albert and use the savings on a quality guard. Shift the guy many had as the number one rated player in last years draft to his natural position. alberts not gonna stay healthy. He's gonna miss games and if we're lucky it would only be a couple. I'd rather have tunsil at LT and a solid to real good guard with the savings who's far more dependable. Last thing I want to happen is albert go down, we move tunsil to LT and put in a backup guard.

Albert gave up one sack during the regular season and played a big role in Ajayi's success. Are we really calling that regressing? If that's the case I wish several other players would regress. Don't get me wrong I always prefer younger players and if Miami could draft a guard and sign Ron Leary I would be all for it. But odds are you're not going to have a left tackle that plays better than Albert played this year.

Uhh Dion Jordan is under contract for next year? His 2015 season didn't count. He only has 3 years accrued.

You could get Ron Leary for LG and another G for Alberts $.

You could get Calais Camble for Williams money and sign our guys and be good.

Resign Sims, Stills, Thomas, Denny.

Cut Mitchell. Even I could find his replacement for his $. He sucked. That might come at preseason time though.
