But not as much as we lose cutting him next year. Which seems a terrible way to do business, but here we are.

After the great news with Ngakoue yesterday, this is a huge negative.

A lot of different speculation on how the cut effects our cap space this year. He has $15M in dead cap but some are saying the cut only costs us $2M. Hopefully we get some clarity soon.

The Raiders take the small cap hit this year of 1.9 instead of taking the bigger cap hit next year which would have been about 9 million. 

Are we really better of with James at center and $7 mio to spend in 21?

  Or you mean save $15 mio in 22?

this could be a Jared Cook/Darren Waller situation. Everyone was losing it, when we let Cook walk for an unknown Waller. Maybe James looked better in practice and they wanted to save money on a better player. But don't blame DC if the line is trash

Cook wasn't our best player for the previous 6 years, Captain, deserving All-Pro and the only player worth a damn on the roster.

Hudson has played at an All-Pro level the past few seasons. James didn't even play a snap for us last year. And we lose cap space.
