I want to keep BJ Hill around for sure. I was just throwing something out there different than Hilton getting cut which I definitely do not 
want to see happen. I think Johnny Newton or Byron Murphy would make instant impacts for us in a positive way as rookies as much as 
any pick at 18, well maybe not as much as Brock Bowers.

Honestly, I don't see any solid/strong starter like Hilton or Hill being cut, particularly in the name of *cap savings*. The only personnel move that I could foresee is Higgins getting traded during the draft, to a team that missed out on the top 3 WRs in this class, and even that wouldn't be in the name of *cap savings* as much as getting draft capital to make the team better.

As for Tyler Boyd coming back to the team, their silence speaks loudly in that they haven't elected to match Pittsburgh's offer of $10M over 2 years.  They indeed want to be younger at the WR position, as they see a couple of OL starters needing replaced in the next two years.
