Restructuring Name Position's contract seems like a good idea.

Am I the only one who thought Mariani was actually pretty good? Oh and this thread deserves:

3 of those guys will probably be the highest paid players at their position, especially if Houston gets tagged.

If Williams slips to us, I will be more excited than I have been for that pick than I have since we got Urlacher. Williams is the best player in the draft IMO.

I'm not sure how realistic this is, but I like that you're not relying solely on a rookie and Willie Young (by default) as our OLBs next season. I'm a big fan of the Worilds pick up.

Yes, I think we can save some money by cutting Gould. Great kicker, but we have a lot of moves to make.

I just ran the simulator, I didn't make the situations happen.

If the 6 teams picking ahead of us all hire Matt Millen to a one pick contract, it could happen.

So we are going to cut him to save on the cap, and then expect him to re-sign at a 50% team discount, when he would command more on the open market (Indianapolis). That's delusional. However, I have no qualms with the rest of your scenario!!

Actually cutting a player and re-signing is not without presedence. But yes I don't think it happens with forte. That scenario was what I could do with FA simulator

Yeah that would be great but it's also probably the most unrealistic one I've seen yet.

Gould has a big salary cap number so I can see doing that. I think it's like 3.5 million which is a lot for a kicker.
