2009 Skins Off Season Plans Ideas, Draft and FA plus cuts

[Defensewins]

The ultimate measure of keeping a player is his level of play on the field and his cap number. Do they meet up?
The only guys I have a problem with are the guy that are not producing like they used to and are collecting a big check, thus over paid. In other words they making way more than they currently are worth:
Over priced
Jason Taylor $8.5M
Marcus Washignton $6.5M
Randle-El $6.1M
Fred Smoot $4.1M (2009), $5.4M (2010) and a whopping $6.9M (2011)
Jon Jansen $3.4M (2009) and $6.4M (2010)

You can not cut Smoot and Jansen in 09 because the cap hit is too big. So if you cut the first three in 2009 and cut Jansen & Smoot in 2010 you would eventually save $26m on just 5 playes that are no longer producing and some of them are actually liabilities on the field.

Here is a list of guys that are a relative bargain, some of their salaries surprised me at how low they are in comparison to the above list:

Bargains

Carlos Rogers $2.4M (2009), $2.1M (2010) and $1M (2011) Big mistake to trade him!
Ladell Betts $1.9M (09), $2.7M(10), $1.7M(11), $1.6M(12), $1.6M(13). Cheap!
Rock Cartwright $1M(09), $1.6M(10)
Phillip Daniels $2.6M(09) and $2.6M(10)
Phillip Daniels is as old as they get, but when healthy the guy is a still a force. One of the strongest playes on the team. I thought his cap number was much higher. He might be worth keeping around if he can stay healthy. Big if.
