That’s about 30m in cap space...plenty to go get a couple guys that can help us.
Also, extending guys like Hill and Jones usually doesn’t effect the current years capdollars as those would likely be extensions added to the end of their current deals.
Another factor I’m sure Veach has in mind is comp picks. Guys like Morse, Conley, Nelson and Bailey will likely get nice FA deals that should get us nice comp picks in next years draft if we don’t go crazy in FA. Maybe even a third and fourth. Those are going to be important. Especially if we try to move up in this draft to get a couple coveted guys.

I thought releasing Berry would only save 1.5M but you are right post June 1, they save pretty much 10M.
This makes me realize that they are really not in a bad situation with regard to the cap.
If they cut both Houston and Berry they have plenty of cap space available and plus they can cut those other cheaper deal players.
