Cutoffs? Don't talk about cutoffs! You kiddin' me? Cutoffs?

The big question is whether Loomis will sign another $10-$15 free agent. He seemed to be panting alot around Cooper Kupp but things are currently quiet. To do that, you would not want to see $18M in cap space, you would want to see about $25M-$30M in cap space.

We still haven’t adjusted Taysom’s deal. Certainly that will have to be addressed at some point.

Yep, Clapp, Landon Young, Williams, and Jones Jr. will become apart of the Top 51 as vet min cap hits above $1.1 million.

They’ll replace the bottom 4 Top 51 cap hits, Hayball, Holker, Hergel and Stalbird, and add on at least $235,000 each to the last 4 $960,000+ hits. $1.12M-$1.5M cap hits.

Chase Young + Reid is about $12.8M.
L. Young, Clapp, Williams and Jones Jr. is additional $940,000+ difference added on to the bottom 4 top 51 cap hits.

13.9M-14M almost swaps out Cam and Tyrann’s $15 million cap savings. Updated cap space will be near the $18.7M range it’s at right now. Likely $1 million more around 19.7M which is still a lot of available space.

Good stuff. Thanks.

Still think we have room to squeeze in one more larger salary if we want to, maybe two if we can successfully chop Taysom down a good bit.

Need to save some money for the draft obviously, and maybe a guy like Wilson gets cut later for some in-season wiggle room.
