Superduperman Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 The one most necessary cut of them all if you ask me. He looked like a jumbo xl size blue bag of potato chips in shoulder pads from the beginning last year. I'd be shocked if his career is not over, barring some significant physical makeover 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions017 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Sounds good. We should be cutting anyone that will give us some cap space or if they aren't part of the plans two or three years out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much cleaning house with all of the failed free agent signings by Quinn. Might strap us this year cap wise with dead money but will open up a lot in the future. Now if only we were able to get out of Big Vs contract. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about restructure for terrible Trey Flowers deal?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to restructure Big V. I want him gone as soon as possible which is just one more year before he is cutable. Don't drag it out longer like they did with Collins. Flowers on the other hand I am not completely hateful of. In the right system, utilized the right way, he has value. heck even last year he had value and did his job quite well, they just didn't ask him to rush the passer consistently hence his quality PFF grade. His numbers were worth the contract, and I feel he can bounce back and be productive when let loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diehardlionfan Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) Another good move. Still waiting on Williams to be cut. At this point it appears another 8 million (approximately) to get under the cap. Edited March 13, 2021 by diehardlionfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a way to go to be cap compliant so I expect there to be some more releases. He would seem a likely candidate. How likely do you think a Flowers restructure is?

He would seem a likely candidate. How likely do you think a Flowers restructure is? Great question. I'm pretty terrible at this cap stuff, but, looking at his contract on spotrac.com, he has a $19.9M cap hit for the 2021 season. It seems that a restructuring of his contract would open up a ton of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
