The Best Way to Use an Uncapped Year

[DarthMonk]

My fear is Danny would spend, spend spend.

Instead, this would be his chance to dump pretty much EVERY BIG CONTRACT! The "cap hits" won't matter. I'd let only half a dozen or so big contracts play out. For instance, keep ey, Dockery, and Moss on offense. Say goodbye to Portis.

For every big name we release we get a compensatory draft pick. We also remove cancer and change culture. I wish we had done this last year. I could really cheer for a 2-5 team that was young, hungry, and had a future.

I thought compensory picks were losses to RFA/FA, not cuts.

Yes ... in the words of Mortimer Duke:

"Sell, sell, SELL!!!!!"

This is exactly right, as it was mentioned by Kevin Sheehan earlier today. You dump ALL of the crappy contracts and rebuild through the draft and potential "young studs". I agree with Sheehan completely when he mentioned dumping the names like: Portis, DeAngelo Hall, Carlos Rogers (though the last 2 are voidable in his contract I think), Randle El, and Randy Thomas (he's due a lot).

Then you go out and start in the trenches, offensive line and defensive line. Take a note out of, and Imm sorry to say this, the books of the Giants and/or Ravens. Both squads have dangerous defenses and they protect the quarterback.

This team needs a culture and character overhaul. The offensive line frustrated me to no end last night but the intensity, or lack thereof, was utter bullsh*t.
