They are just about out of money until they cut someone- money must be saved for draft choices, and IR players

Yes, but they have a couple of guys who are practically begging to be cut based on their mediocre play versus their salaries. Plus the Skins could restructure a couple of contracts.

YES.... i LOVE the J Johnson signing..and at a very reasonable price. I would give the FA an "A" so far with their dealings in FA given what was available with the funds they had..They still need to sign a FS a d possibly a TE (Gresham) the use the draft to address RT, OLB, ILB, and RB..

Its not like we are completely up against it and we have alot of flexibility in creating space. We can extend Kerrigan and/or Silverback and we have cut-able contracts of Chester, Porter, and Paulsen.

We gonna be aight

Our estimated draft pool, by at least one source, is 7.0M

Projected Cap Space for all 2015 NFL Teams | Spotrac Research

Per Schneed, pre-JJ signing we have ~12.7M in space. Cuttting Chester, Paulsen and Porter creates another 7.1M (See OP in 2015 salary cap thread). If TW and RK get extended, even more space.

We are fine.

We went into the draft last year with around 2Mill. Right now after signing JJ (no Lotus, not that JJ), we are somewhere between 11 and 14Million. The main difference is that we will either have 1 or 2 (if some trade scenarios work out) 1st round picks.

We are nowhere near out of cap. And if we were, you would see a Kerrigan restructure in a heartbeat.

I think they are closer to $11 million than $14 million - reportedly they need about $6 million for draft picks, and about $5 million for money to sign replacement players for guys that go on the IR

Prior to signing Johnson, we had 12.7M per Schneed which puts at about 10.7M with easy moves to get us to 17.5M (cut Paulsen, Chester & Porter).

We have plenty of room.

Re: Who should we go for in Free Agency?

Follow-up note, in his one career start, JJ led the team in tackles.

Watch New York Giants vs. Seattle Seahawks [11/09/2014] - NFL.com

(Looked it up after noted by someone on twitter).

JoeRedskin gives this signing his official seal of approval.

I think this shows that we won't be drafting Collins in the first round.

Yes, even more on my boy JJ:

Although Johnson hasn’t played a lot on defense, he may get more playing time in the secondary in Washington. And he’ll undoubtedly improve the special teams; he was the Seahawks’ leading tackler on kick coverage last season.

Nice.
