sort of. It and the contracts it represents will be gone, leaving us with only current players to pay (unless/until we prematurely cut more guys with years left on their contracts).
Since we haven't designated anyone a posts june 1 cuts (which, confusingly can be done march 1st or earlier now), I don't believe we have any deadcap on the 2007 cap of 109$mill yet.
Right now we already have 106$mill of player salaries on the 2007 cap though, with dockery and lloyd needing new deals still (which probably adds 3-4mill more onto next year). New roster fill and some smaller contracts will also be due (unless someone like chris clemons steps up and needs a big contract like AP got). A few cuts and some restructures and it'll be easy to get under at least one more year, but next year's FA binge already happened this year, so don't expect a huge signing spree
