I would think someone would trade something for him, but even if not, I wouldn't be opposed to using the money saved from cutting Burfict ($6.91 mill in 2018, $6.925 mill in 2019, $8.938 mill in 2020) and putting toward OL. Or bringing in a FA like Zach Brown for a few mill (signed with Washington last year for 1 year $2.3 mill, hits FA again this offseason) to fill the LB void and still put the remaining toward OL.
How about just pocketing the savings for profit?
