NFL Cap

Maualuga is the biggest consumer of this dead weight. He will count $3.7 million toward the cap next year, has no dead money, has drastically decreased in snap count (and even performance), and enters his final year under contract. The Bengals need a young, early-round draft pick to replace him.
Sims will count $1 mill toward the cap, also no dead money, and also enter his final year under contract. I can't imagine the Bengals would keep both him and re-sign Peko. Will likely be one or the other.
That right there is $4.7 million saved.

Who else do you cut to get the extra ~$8-10 million in cap savings?
