Well below the cap now

So the Bink returns! Good deal.

$13+ million cap space without having to restructure Cam Jordan and Taysom Hill to get there is extremely impressive cap work by Khai and Mickey. Wow

 

[St. Geezy]

Cap space projected at + $15,427,000 under the cap after 13.53m cap savings (March 11)

$15 million cap space without having to restructure Cam Jordan and Taysom Hill is extremely impressive cap work by Khai and Mickey. Wow

I felt a great disturbance on the internet. It's as if millions of Saints cap haters cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.

 

[Epic Brownie]

Guess they like Shepherd more than most

 

[St. Geezy]

Very happy with the decision to bring back Khalen. Is he great? No. But he certainly holds value, makes plays, and is just an overall good guy to have on the team and in the locker room.

Was really thinking they'd release him for the cap savings.

You save $2.5 million releasing him but then when you factor in you replace his salary with someone else's then it's only $1.5 million. Is it really worth it for someone that can be part of a rotation?

Where does Saunders play in Staley's Gap and a Half system? Is he a DE or is he rotational NT?

 

[Snakehead]

Does this restructure of Ruiz enable a trade or does it ensure he stays on the roster?

I know he's young, but many he just doesn't play physical at a physical position.

Jordan and Hill are likely Post-June 1 cuts if they don’t take pay cuts. Jordan isn’t playing to his contract value plus Young’s signing will eat future cash.

Hill may miss half a season and 10M is a lot for a TE/FB.

My daughter is 16 now, but man did this bring back some memories.

Yeah I hear you there. My daughter is 21 now.

I could see him as a 5-tech DE lined up next to Chase as a stand-up LB in the base 3-4. Bink has good lateral quickness. It's his bull rush that has never been super impressive.
