I don't think we needed McCoy, but of course he would have been a nice addition. Just glad he didn't sign with Baltimore...

Still waiting to see how hard they continue to try and bolster the OL/DL depth with veteran camp cap casualties. There will be more than a few more opportunities to grab impactful depth guys. I just dont know who those guys are yet lol

He almost mattered. 

Would’ve been a nice add but likely not a guy that determines whether or not we hoist a trophy at this stage. 

Given his stated vs. acted on priorities as @AkronsWitness pointed out so well, I think that we will be better off without him.

Grab a couple 'I used to be a 3x pro bowler 5 years ago' type of guys off the camp cut scrap heap for pennies. Its like thrift store shopping. You can get some huge steals.

For instance....Joe Haden is a prime candidate for being a cap casualty. Thaaaaat would be interesting.

EDIT**** I just looked and can somebody tell me how in TF we are paying TJ Carrie almost 9m this season to be a CB4. Wowzers

Joe haden is pretty average, but he will get another starting gig rather than be db 3-4 or 5 here. 

Ig et qhat you are saying though, I thought McCoy would get more money.

Yeah Haden is probably off the table but I would rather scoop him up for a 5-6m per year contract as a CB3/4 over paying TJ Carrie 9m and 8m next year.

Cause Dorsey loaded the money early on to give Him a smaller dead cap hit. Yeah Carrie will make around $8m. (Also Carrie played pretty well as a starter last year for the last had of the season. )

Carries contract is pretty much done after this year. Next year it turns into a $1.6m cap hit, where this year its $10m hit. Basically Carrie is going to be a 2yr $16m contract player for us. 

Hubbards contract is also like that. It turns into a $2.4m cap hit after this season. Kirksey’s contract turns into a $2.4m cap hit too. On paper the browns have some big contracts that don’t seem worth it like Hubbard, Carrie, Kirksey,  and Landry but after this season they turn into easily cuttable deals because of their dead cap hits. Dorsey structured a lot of outs in the deals he gave out his first year here
