Assuming nothing has changed in the last year.

Thanks for the reminder I forgot about that one.  I guess it depends on how it is looked at because the player is released to seek opportunities elsewhere with the designation but the team keeps the player's salary on the books until June 2.  So yes I guess technically they could all be cut before June as the OP stated.  NFL contracts and cap rules are full of so many if then, then this, but now always, if this happens type stuff it is hard to keep track of.   :)
