Very valid points, Master. I agree regarding Pouncey and Villanueva. I think we spend $ in free agency on linemen. Draft as well, but get a couple good ones, spend the $ to upgrade to players who are ready to step in NOW.
Where to get the $? Well, bye to Ju Ju and to Dupree for sure. Others possibly as well. Dump some salary there.
losing JuJu and dupree wouldnt even cover the cost of bens rising cap hit. ben goes from 23.7 to 41.5. pouncey and decastro's cap hit increases this year. decastro from 9.7 to 15.3 and pouncey from from 7.5 to 14.4...plus for every guy you get rid of their replacement needs payed. so you get rid of pouncey and save 8 million while eating 6 .5 ...now you need to find a guy for under 8 million , but that guy is still costing you as much as pouncey because of the 6.4 million dead money...somewhere in the equation we need to spend less than last year. soooooo
That's why I said "to Start..."

My latest. Later rounds got a little murky, but I like my early picks.
