Their current salaries add up to somewhere around $50 million. Bates, Uzomah, and Apple are going to be looking for significant raises. Other significant contributors are making about market rate so there's not a lot of savings there to be found.
We have 36 under contract for next year. That's 14 contracts that we need to worry about.
We also will have 7-8 draft picks, so in reality that's 6-7 free agents that need to be re-signed. There should be plenty to sign everyone - especially if they cut Waynes and save $11 million.
