Safe (in millions) - Geno, $13,9, Dre K. - 4.2, Carlos - 10,8, Glenn - 2 million, Uzomah - 6.3, Hart - 5.5, Miller - 6.5, P. Brown - 4.2, John Ross - 10.1, Dennard - 2.5, Price - 7.5 and Webb 2.5


Questionable (based on thousands)
- Dalton - 0, Boling - 500,  Bernard - 750, S. Williams - 800, Huber - 700, Vigil - 173, Bullock - 800, Boyd - 324, Willis - 452, Hubbard - 679, Lawson - 326 and Evans - 78

We can cut or trade guys, but mostly we seem to cut them. I see guys like AD who are not cap hit, but no replacement drafted so no danger. I see a guy like Ross going nowhere since his cap hit is 10.1 million in 2019

What do you think? I know many have favorites or dogs, but sadly some of those dogs likely have zero chance of being cut or traded due to the cap hit.

Can't see Boling gone. With our injury history and recent less-than-great ability to select OL, it seems a waste to cut or trade a decent player that we could conceivably have to try and search through the FA dumpster midseason to replace. Kind of the same with Vigil. Unless we get lucky and some team cuts a starter to make space, we need the guy as we probably haven't found his replacement (at least not by the the time the season starts). No chance on Dalton or Boyd.
