I know most think we will not be a good team in 2021 and will be picking inside the top 10 in 2022. I agree with that because they aren?t trying to build this thing for 2021.
What this thread is about is what do you think they could do this offseason to compete without sacrificing the future? Here is mine
With our top 51 spotrac has us at just under 10mil in cap space without adding Tyrell Williams contract. His 4.7 mil goes against the cap but pushes off the lowest contract on the roster against the top 51 which is 660k. So we are down to 6mil cap space.
Restructure Goff Convert 20mil of his base into a bonus freeing up 15mil in cap room in 2021
Cut Justin Coleman save 5mil)
Cut Danny Shelton (save 4mil)
Cut Nick Williams (save 4.7mil)
Cut Joe Dahl (save 2.9mil)
Cut Jesse James (Designate Post June 1st, save 5mil)
Cut Chase Daniels (2.3mil)
Cut Christian Jones (save 2.6mil)
That gives us 47mil in cap space without sacrificing too much in the future with the cap expected to jump a bunch in 2022.
Franchise Golladay (16mil on tag, Re-sign long-term)
Romeo Okwara (3 years 30mil, year one cap hit 5mil)
Jarad Davis (1 year 3mil)
Don Mulbach (1 year 1 mil)
Daryl Roberts (1 year 1.25mil)
Resign Golladay long term 5 year 90mil 48mil guaranteed with 10mil signing bonus
2021 6mil fully guaranteed base salary prorated 2mil signing bonus 8mil cap hit
2022 14mil fully guaranteed base salary prorated 2mil signing bonus 16mil cap hit
2023 18mil (18mil guaranteed for injury only by a certain date in 2023) base salary prorated 2mil signing bonus 20mil cap hit
2024 20mil base salary prorated 2mil signing bonus 22mil cap hit
2025 22mil base salary prorated 2mil signing bonus 24mil cap hit
Use the two 1.25 mil veteran exceptions for resigning a on Mulbach and Roberts. Resignings then take up 16mil bringing us to 31mil left.
Free Agents
John Johnson 4 years 40mil (6mil cap hit year one)
Troy Hill 2 years 10mil (4mil cap hit year one)
Jamaal Williams 2 years 6mil (2mil cap hit year one)
Curtis Samuel 3 year 30mil (7mil cap hit year one)
Denzel Perryman 2 years 10mil (4mil cap hit year one)
Larry Ojunjibi 2 years 6mil (2mil cap hit year one)
Jared Cook 1 year 3mil
Kevin Pierre-Louis 1 year 2 mil
They account for 30mil, but they push the lowest contracts off the roster so in actuality it lowers the cap by 25mil bringing the total to 6mil.
Trade down with New England getting 15, 46 and 2022 2nd
15 Kwity Paye EDGE
Trade with New Orleans for 28 (660) and 134 (38) giving up both the picks from New England (710)
28 Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah LB
41 Daviyon Nixon, DT
72 D?Wayne Eskridge, WR
88 Eric Stokes, CB
113 RB
134 OG
157 QB
After we sign all the draft picks that will take up about 9mil in cap room. Each guy would
push another player off the roster who at a minimum would be making 660k. All in all the draft class would only add another 3mil against the cap after accounting for who they replace.
Going into the season the top 53 count which would put us right around 2mil in cap space.

This took a lot longer then I expected. I know I?ve done a few of these now but just excited about where this team is headed for the first time in a long time. Looking over this roster I think you could really be working with something. The more I look at our cap situation the less dire it is starting to seem.
