My list of guys who may get cut to save cap:
1) Waynes (saves $10.8 million).
Given our current cap situation, we need that cash to sign Collins.
2) Fred Johnson ($2,433,333).
When/if we land another tackle, Fred is likely #5 on the depth chart with zero dead cap (Jonah, RT, Prince, Smith). And he makes more than double what Prince & Smith do.
3) Trey Hopkins ($6 million).
I do not think we cut Hopkins until we absolutely have to. I think we like having the option to play Karras at LG in case Carman does not improve. Plus, then Hill is unlikely to have to olay C. If a quality IOL option falls to us in the draft (Linderbaum, Zion Johnson, Green), then we move Karras appropriately and release Hopkins. Or if we can land Tretter but need the cap space.
4) Brandon Wilson ($2 million).
Coming off injury. Evans has been good on KR. We might need some Bates insurance. There are some oretty good safteties that could get taken in the 30s in the draft.
