Thee biggest take away for me is how no competition was brought in at RB

We really have a depth chart of :

 

Barber 

Jones 

Ellington 

 

You can add Shaun Wilson and Dare O.  BA has picked up Chris Johnson and AP during his time in AZ, so he is not averse to adding a vet RB before the season starts.

We're currently at $1.795M in cap space.

Cutting Ryan Smith frees up about $1.9M with some dead money.

Cutting Benenoch frees up about $1.9M with less dead money.

Cutting Gholston still frees up $3.75M with zero dead money.

Cutting Brice saves almost $1M with zero dead money.

Cutting Harris saves $700k with zero dead money.

 

That might get us enough to sign our draft picks. I have no idea what all these UDFA contracts counts as.

 

We could also cut Isaiah Johnson, Corey Nelson, Riley Bullough, Joe Callahan, Ellington, Bobo, and Liedtke and save $4.5M.

Cutting Stevie T and Auclair would free up about $1.2M with minimal dead money.

Cutting Evan Smith is a free $2M.

 

Cutting/trading McCoy is obviously a helluva lot easier than gutting the bottom of the roster. But there's a way to keep him and free up ~$16M.

My takeaways from the draft: 

-Devin White pick was great. He was top 5 player on a lot of teams boards and he's the type of leader teams crave.

-Love what we did addressing the secondary. We got 3 guys that fit the system well. I feel much better now about our secondary. I was worried before draft that they wouldn't address it before late rounds...

-Still baffles me that we waited so late to take a pass a DL/OLB. We passed over a lot if talent. We have guys at the positions, but some are unproven as 3-4 guys and a good many are potentially out of contract next year. This was a miss to me.

-Taking a kicker in the 5th is just dumb, not matter how good they felt he was...

-Loved the other late round picks and UDFA's. They did a nice job with these.
