With Roughly 13 Mil Left In Cap Space, Possible Bills Cap Cuts

[better days]

If I'm reading the numbers right, they only save 1.350 million with Urbik (1.4 dead), 1.6 million with Lawson (1.5 dead), 1.250 with Wood (5.4 dead) ? Not sure about the June 1 numbers ?

I sure dunno.

I think Lawson gets more playing time in Rex's defense than he got last year.

No way the Bills cut Chandler.

The Bills have neglected the TE position just as much as they've neglected to address the quarterback position.

I'm not expecting him to get cut, but he's one of the few guys that offers any kind of significant savings at a position that they could be looking to upgrade. If they make a big signing at TE, Chandler's savings may be better spent elsewhere. It just depends what moves they make at TE, but I'm not betting on it.

I think the site I linked below is much better for looking at dead money and cap savings. It also gives you the option of selecting pre-June 1 and post-June 1 cuts so you can see the difference in savings.

Excellent site that deserves a bookmark. Thanks.

Ubrik, Williams and Corey Graham all will be cuts, IMO, unless they restructure big time. That's 12 million boners right there

Not really. Using the new link, it's either 4.6 million pre 6/1 or 9 million after, but the post 6/1 designation means the money isn't there until 6/2 so won't be of any use before then. I did some reading, amazingly.

Cutting Graham would be foolish.

Absolutely. I just wonder if they can't find a better Lawson in the draft.

Woe is us if they contemplate cutting their starting center, a vet guard however disliked, with a club that saw fit to employ 3 rookie OLs on the active squad (has that ever happened?)

How is it possible for a club to mis-manage an OL for so long? As well as at last, beating out CLE for the most changing of coaches and staff.

What a...

Everybody loved the o-line when Levitre, Wood, Glenn were there being coached by D'Alessandris. Even Pears had a halfway decent run. FJax AND Spiller thrived.

Second, the guard thing you said above - they can cut him because both Chris Williams and Incognito are both there now. So they can part with Urbik. The center question I don't understand either. I think with a new coach he'll likely be fine.

I'd still rather keep Urbik and give him a shot in Roman's system though.

Chan also schemed so that the ball came out in <2seconds. They were great at pulling, and in the screen game, but their pass blocking was protected by Fitz and scheme. I think Roman can do something similar.

Looking at that site I couldn't help but love the cap savings if they dumped Manuel.
