But I still think Hobson is right on that point.  Even if we have $80 million in cash to spend this year we are not going to get more than one player with a $20+ million signing bonus.  If you give 2 guys $20+ million then you only have $40 million to replace 6 of these 8 losses.

Starting CB
Starting RT
Starting OG
Starting Center
Starting TE
Starting DT
2 back up DTs that played as many snaps as a starter.

And any decent free agent is going to get a signing bonus.  So that cash burns up quickly.

Did you listen to who he predicted as that big money 'splash' signing.
