Some interesting names; particularly at DT!

We have 5 listed. 32 teams so average would be a little over 3 per team so we beat the average.
Ravens will not cut Andrews. I don't LA cutting Bosa either.

If I read that right, Rankins, Cappa, and Hubbard are the ones whose contracts exceed their value by the most. Pratt & Stone are paid pretty well but still have some value as well. 

I'd cut accordingly. The money spent on Rankins, Cappa, and Hubbard can be better spent elsewhere, and the players are not helping the team much. Maybe Hubbard can stay on a much smaller deal. 

Pratt & Stone should stay unless we get a clear upgrade or need the money to land a real stud at another spot. 

Moss at $5 mil is kinda expensive for a reserve RB, though by the time we cut him and pay someone else, you are only talking $2.5 mil net or so. $5 mil for a shakey PK is also a lot, though  again, we only save $2.5 by cutting, and still would have to pay a replacement.

Reader & Hill have more discipline and gamble less. They are more reliable. But Larry O. introduced some uncertainty for the offense to deal with. Sometimes it would pay off. 

As for the cuts, I'd like to throw a couple more names out there beyond the obvious 3 (Rankins, Cappa, Hubbard), possible 2 (Stone & Pratt), and the 2 I already mentioned (Moss & McPherson). 

1. Volson. He is scheduled to make $3.5 mil or do next year and should be a backup. He's our bestctun blocker but was giving Cappa a tlrun for the Triple Crown as the worst pass protecting guard in the league (Alex gave up the most pressures, hits, and sacks of any G, Volson was bottom 10 in all of them as well). 

Cutting him would save us over $3 mil. If we can pay Ford half that, or all of it  or part of it  we should. 

2. Drew Sample. $2.75 mil. Zero dead cap. Would anyone notice if we just let Grandy take his snaps? 

3. Orlando Brown, Jr. Post June 1 we could save $7.26 mil by cilutting him. He is a fine pass protector but a poor run blocker. He is starter level, but not great. 

Depending on how FA goes, if we are sitting there at #17, taking Josh Simmons and saving the $$ is not completely crazy. Especially if we think he can be a better run blocker. Heck, keeping Brown and taking Simmons also is not completely crazy, either. 

I think OG, DT, DE, WR2, and TE are obviously a higher priority. But if we are gonna consider cutting Peatt and Stone because they are underperforming their contracts, I don't think Brown is immune either.
