Miller's getting cut.
I didn't realize his base was so high ($17 million) and not guaranteed.
They don't save near that much by cutting him (about $8 million) but they also absorb some of the dead money that would've hit them in 2026.
It's "We get Frank Clark for Free!" all over again. The bottom line is that regardless of how much dead money you take on, you're removing $17 million from your cap over the next 2 seasons by moving off him now. And in the rollover era, that makes all the sense in the world.
If they can afford it, Chase Young makes a LOT of sense for them. Omenihu probably would as well. But as a pure pass rusher, Young would make the biggest difference for them.
And if they can't fix their secondary, they're gonna need a big step forward on the DL. That secondary is in rough rough shape.
