Fat Contracts...

If OTC is correct, we are projected to have 1.4 million in cap space next year.  That's not good considering the free agents we will have.  I looked at a few contacts that may be overvalued and the best scenario.  From left to right (player, cap#, dead money, savings and action taken)

DJ   38,4,24 Trade Post 6/1
Edmunds 17, 2,15  Trade Pre or Post 6/1
Dayo  20,0,7   Restructure
Jarrett  19,4,15  Trade Post 6/1
Johnson  Can't cut, trade or restructure.                                  Gordon 23,2,11 Trade post 6/1 

Chart is ugly.  I don't think a miracle is gonna happen with Gordon or Jarrett.  DJ and Edmunds can get us 39 million back if traded.  Add in 7 mil for Dayo for 46 mil.  I didn't put Sweat, Jackson, Dalman or Thuney on the list, due to them playing commensurate to their value.  They can be traded post 6/1 for savings, if needed.  The bummer of it is that bone of the above has good value being traded to gain picks on the upcoming draft.  For that weed have to look at guys on their rookie contract.  Y'all feel to add or correct, as this is definitely not my wheelhouse.

If traded, they will be around draft time, not post 6-1. I don't think they trade DJ, more like restructuring his contract. Edmunds may be the odd man out with the play of Jackson. If they want to keep any of the big contracts, I see many restructuring before they trade them.
