I guess, but gardner gives us a extra 2 million when he leaves one way or another.

Thats why I'm sure we wont keep Gardner. Even if we only get a 5th rounder for him.
I mean how are we going to sign two first round picks, then we will probably have to give Santana Moss a bigger contract and maybe the same with Sean Taylor.
No way we can do all that with 1.5 million is space, I mean we might not even be able to fit that all in with 3 million space.

yeah i agree with air hog... We should get wat ever we can get for Gardner, because if we needed him that would be another story, but the truth hurts and we dont need him.

Right now, the cap number is superfluous. There are still deals to be made, players to trade/cut.
It might be a little early yet to worry too much about that sort of thing.
Solid money says Taylor won't restructure to help us any, though.

Take a look at the cap chart:
http://www.thehogs.net/html/Team/salary_table.html
Cutting/Trading Gardner will clear about $1.5 M.
That'll give us about $3 M wiggle room.
Since only the top 51 salaries count toward the cap,
we can sign the two top picks for about $3.5 M (in 2005)
and still be under the cap. We will have to cut 2 players
later whose salaries add up to $0.5 M.

I wouldnt be supprised if we got rid of DMac. He has some value and if i remember he's got a good size salary too.

I was hoping he would be more involved this year. I don't think we save much by cutting him anyway with his SB.

If we use the chart on the link above we save 1.2 and for a guy who was on reserve last year thats too much.

Frankcal20:
From my understanding, we'd only save 0.545 M by cutting/trading
McCants. The remaining 0.667 M is the pro-rated signing bonus
already paid and will count against the cap no matter what.
I believe the McCants signing was done after Gibbs came
on board ... but without his full knowledge. See this link:
