LeFell is 4.5 Mill/year   Pac Man is like 8 Mill

They could have just put that money towards OL, knowing they were targeting a WR in round 1.

Boyd, AJ, Core, Draftee (Ross).

CB's:  Kirk, Jackson, Dennard, Shaw, Draftee

OL:  + Whit


I guess I am confused why they signed LaFell

The FO made it clear that there were guys who would be released to fit in Whit and Dre's salaries.  They did not have to cut them all because Whit refused to sign a matched offer from us.  Pat Kirwan stated that we offered same deal and he said no.

He wanted to leave, per Kirwan (see above).
