I went to overthecap.com and if I'm correct, the Kirksey and King cuts shave about eight million off of the cap. We were ten million (and change) under before those cuts, so we have a significant amount of spending money if we wanted to add a significant player on waivers this week. What I always find fascinating about new coaches is what they choose to value. They are literally beholden to no one as they don't have any of "their guys" yet. It might be the most honest and coolest evaluations of a coaching tenure.

I'd say I'm encouraged overall because some of the guys that are cut are solid football players. None of them are special though and I think the biggest takeaway is that most of the interior defenders (outside of Collins) are now gone. This team surrendered more rushing yards than any team in my lifetime (I will turn 50 this year). Granted, it was in a 17 game schedule, but it's hard to employ the same people that gave you that and just say, "we think the scheme will fix it."

I figure you'll analyze the initial 53, of r wait for the waiver claims. My second team is Pittsburgh, and my brother is a die-hard fan. It would be a great story for Kendrick Green to find his home in the outside zone. Give me some hope.
