But $5M for Cooley? That is a tough decision. If a decent CB or OT or Safety became available, but we could not go after them because of lack of cap space, it would be tough to reserve $5m on a back up TE, when we have other pressing needs. Especially with the way Paulsen and Paul are playing. Just saying....

We don't free up 5MM by cutting Cooley. We'd only save about 1MM becuse we'd take a 4MM cap hit. So our decision is not if cooley is worth 5MM, but 1MM and if the available cb or ot or safety who wed sign for 1MM was better for the team. Just sayin...
