Cut Ford - $8.7 million
Cut Harris - $2 million
Cut Zombo - $1.1 million

That gives you $30 million in cap space to fill some holes. The biggest hole would obviously be OLB but you've got KPass and Nicholas that can soak up some reps. Go get a guy on a 1 year deal like Mingo and draft one in the 2nd-3rd round range and we should be ok.
We have gotten so shockingly little production opposite of Houston this year that it will be virtually impossible to get any worse over there.

Personally I'd cut Bailey as well - he'd never see $8 million on the open market. His signing bonus might approach that so for 1 year he could, but his cap hit wouldn't be that high. If they want to restructure him to save $3 million I could live with that, but he's not worth that hit next year. He's plateaued and despite his size has become pretty fungible.
