Last year's collapse showed we had holes and were old on defense. So with that in mind I start with this scenario:

Re-sign these guys:

1) Whitworth- 2yr 16 million deal ( 8 per)
2) Kirkpatrick- 4 yr 34 million with incentives based on int/pass defenced ( 8.5 per)
3) Peerman- 1 yr 1.5-solid special teamer
4) Burkhead- 3yr 9million (3 per)
5) Lafell 2yr 10 million- (5 per)

total free agent dollars per season 26

Cuts:

1) Adam Jones-savings @ 6million
2) Ray Maualuga- savings 3.7million

total cuts saved @ 10million

Free Agent Additions:

1) Sean Spence (LB) 3yr 8million (2.75per) -becomes solid backup or part time starter gives us depth
2) Logan Ryan (CB) 3yr 15 million (5per)- becomes our slot corner allowing WJ3, and Dennard to play outside
3) Stefan Wisniewski (C/OG) 2yr 4million (2per)- provides interior depth, pushes Bodine at Center.
4) Ryan Nassib (QB) 2yr 2.2 million (1.1per)- with AJMac traded we get a young backup

total outside dollars @ 11 million

these moves still leave us with plenty of cap room and allows us to add youth through the draft, mostly on the d-line, linebacker, o-line, and offensive RB, and wr positions.

Bolded seems too low to keep them.
