Falcons Cap Rehab

I think, I got it.

The big problem with the Falcons is the dead cap with over 80 million.

So I had to cut a lot of players which is jist as difficult because most of them got a big bonus and you can save only a few bucks.


These players will be cut (player/pos/exp/cap save in million)
1. Deloatch / MLB / 5 / 3.14
2. Wishart / MLB / 2 / 2.64
3. Bradford / DT / R / 2.62
4. Thomas / QB / R / 1.69
5. Shaw / DT / R / 1.66
6. Morin / QB / 2 / 1.5
7. Gothart / FB / 8 / 1.26
8. Tirell / LT / 11 / 1.18
9. Perry / TE / 9 / 1.12
10. Lawton / DT / 12 / 1.1
11. Bell / FB / 10 / 0.85
12. Kelly / DT / 14 / 0.64
13. Perry / RB / 10 / 0.41
14. Hileman / WR / 11 / 0.39

This will free up circa 20.2 million.


I also expand the contrats with Noel (RB) and Clemente (WR) = + 0.9 m


Summarized:
56 player - 14 cuts = 42 rosterspots
Cap space after the next sim + 2.35 m

With the rest of the cap I would try get players to fill up the roster.
After the pre season I will keep the falcons a few games or maybe until the end of the season, just to make sure, that the franchise is in good shape for a new owner.

PS: I also had to replace the QB coach, because he cost more salary than the coordinators and I already cuttet the second kicker with which I could save more cap

Thanks for doing this. If JDB is still checking his messages, he can reset the dead cap for a new owner.
