Is there anyone we might cut?

[STLRAMSFAN]

If we were to get an upgrade for Timmerman, Mau, or Coakley. How much would we save by cutting them if anything?

Also is there anyone on our roster that has more then a 50/50 chance of being cut?

it wouldnt save us a bunch at all, and in fact would cost us on accelerated bonus prorations.

cut them 3. would save us a bunch.

Their salary totals for 2006 equals $4.325 million. But the accelerated bonus money that would be charged against our cap totals over $6 million by my count.

So actually, it wouldn't save us anything. It would cost us. Why would you say it would save us?

[RamsFan16]

Because they have big contracts. So I've heard.

Because they have big contracts. So I've heard.

And big contracts result in accelerated cap charges when players are cut before the terminal year. It might be a good idea to look at the figures before commenting on how much savings we'd get.
