Curious about what is right in front of us? Who gets cut or traded and what is the dead cap hit? Last year we had $66m in dead cap money. Rashad Jones? Albert Wilson? Charles Harris? Jakeem Grant ?

i will say this. We have $100m, but if you start to see cap savings cuts or traded, Miami could be tipping their hand

Actually, we currently have $89M according to Spotrac which is a great website to check out all teams and player contract details.
 
I think they will try and restructure Wilson’s contract and if he isn’t amiable to a restructure, it is very likely he is cut. Grant was resigned to a new contract last season so I think he will most likely be on the roster next season.
I just don’t see Jones being on the roster. His cap hit if he is on the roster will be over $15 million dollars and he just isn’t worth that kind of money. Injuries and age seem to have caught up with him in recent years and he is no longer anywhere near the player he once was.
I really have no idea why Harris is even still on the team. He has been a complete bust as a first round pick.
He was drafted 5 or 6 rounds earlier than he should have been drafted and if he had been drafted in the 6th or 7th round as he should have been, he would have have been cut a long time ago because he just isn’t very good as an NFL player.

because Charles Harris has a fully guaranteed contract that would have accounted for a 6.4 mil hit in dead cap last season. it's down to 3.4 mil this year.

i guess you could still say 6.4mil isn't cost-prohibitive to cut, but he also plays at a position where we had absolutely nothing last year. mind you, i'm using the word "play" very loosely here.

Wilsons not getting cut because of his contract. The only way he gets cut is if somebody outperformed him or he re-injures his hip.

So how much cap do we have?

True, and I'm sure some cuts and in a couple cases restructure, we will end up with a bit more.

Bear in mind, though, with 14 draft picks, our rookies will take a part if that.

Rookie contract are relatively low, but 3 rd1's, and 2 rd2's + all our other picks could easily be around 20 mil per year.
