One Last Off-Season and Mock before Everyone's Fired and we move to London

1) Franchise Tag & Trade Yannick - we tag and trade Yan to the Vegas Raiders. He's an amazing pass rusher, but we can fill 2-3 holes with his future salary and the Raiders draft pick. Plus he prob wants to leave.

(+22 mil future salary cap space and 12th overall pick)

2) CUTS: Marcell Dareus - cap casualty +20 mil cap/ 2.5 dead $15,995,536

A.J. Bouye - lost a step +11,437,500 cap/4 mil dead $26,848,036

Andrew Norwell - salary doesn't match production +5 mil cap/ 9 mil dead $31,763,036

Marquis Lee - constant IR salary +5.25 mil cap/ 3.5 mil dead $36,483,036

Jake Ryan - constant IR salary +6mil cap/ 250k dead $41,971,370

Jeff Swaim - constant IR salary +4mil cap/ 250k dead $45,511,370

Abry Jones - cap casualty +4mil cap/ 0 dead $49,001,370

Chris Conley - can't catch +2.295mil cap/ 500k dead $50,786,370

James O'Shaughnessy - constant IR salary +932k cap/ 50k dead $51,208,870

Peake/Middleton/Price - cap casualties +2.2mil cap/ 0 dead $53,413,870

3) TRADE FOLES: This may be difficult, but we should be able to offload Foles and at least part of his contract to a team needing a decent backup or possibly a fill-starter like Foles.

For this instance, we work out a deal with the Arizona Cardinals for a 4th and a portion of his salary.

(+3.1cap/ 18.75mil dead) $56,501,370

4) FREE AGENCY:

Ndamukong Suh DT (1yr/ 10 mil) Calais and him caving in right sides of O-lines. My god. $46,501,370

Leonard Williams DE (4yr/ 40mil) Calais replacement/ great young talent $36,501,370

De'Vondre Campbell OLB (3yr/ 27mil) ball magnet/ tackling machine $27,501,370

Danny Shelton NT (3yr/ 21mil) great run stopping tackler $20,501,370

Tyler Eifert TE (1yr/ 3 mil) Veteran pass catching TE $17,501,370

I'm putting 13-14mil for Rookies leaving 4-6mil in cap space.

5) DRAFT: 9th - Andrew Thomas/Mekhi Becton (OT) either one avail

12th (OAK) - Henry Ruggs III (WR) speeeeeeeeed
