He's going to count $12 million against our cap whether we cut him or keep him. The roster bonus due in 2006 will boost his cap figure to around $12 million. You could always renegotiate that into a signing bonus and spread it around to future years, but I don't know why you'd do that if he's not going to get playing time. And remember, if GW leaves then Greg Blache will step right in as def coordinator. And who did Greg Blache have as his LB coach and outside LB in Chicago? Dale Lindsey as LB coach and Warrick Holdman at OLB. Sound familiar? I don't think Blache would miss Arrington if GW left.
Better to get the cap room for future years and axe Arrington now. He's WAY overrated.
EDIT: When I say axe him now, I mean in 2006. Of course trading him would be better, if possible.
