But Seattle recruited a rookie who can start over a guy making 8.5 million. We need more rookies starting than developing. It’s hurt us. But ‘24-25 better in that regard.

I agree on the rookies. We do have 2 potential DE starts Stewart and Murphy who only make 3.4 million (cap hit) each. If either produces for 4 to 6 sacks and is good against the run, they would be great value starters. 

The same with Knight who with a cap hit of less 2 million. A starting LB making less than 2 million is also a steal. Now, he needs to produce, but if he does it helps balance the huge contracts on both sides of the ball allowing FO to be build a solid roster.

I was shocked to see the Fant numbers and yes he was definitely a cap casualty. Now we need a vet OG who is talented be cut because the team drafted a rookie.

Or we have the cap space still to extend Trey and add a guard also like Hernandez or Risner. I am sure Scherff's heart is still in it at age 35, but also a possibility. I would guess none of these guys has a high market, unemployed when camp starts is not a resume for getting paid big bucks.
