If Mauga's not ready to go, waived or placed on IR, I'd imagine Dorsey would grab someone off waivers, unless they have faith in Terrence Smith. Quote:
I understand your hesitation to move on from Mauga but keep in mind, the guy was a late July 2014 acquisition himself. I guess I just don't see him as irreplaceable. |

Money will most definitely be a factor, as will length of contract, possibility to start and so on.
If he's offered a multi-year deal by the Saints but only a 1 year deal to join the Chiefs, which offer do you think he'd take, especially when Houston is healthy, the SOLB job is his for the duration? |

From what I heard, the Saints are gonna put the full court press on Kruger. Apparently, they want him badly. I'd be shocked if he even makes it to KC. Of course, this is just Internet rumor stuffs, so take it for what it's worth......about zilch!

The Saints better pull some money out of their ass because they currently have less than a million dollars in cap space.

Aren't the saints broke, rebuilding and already loaded with old guys?

Why he plays a different position than mauga. I assume you mean from a money perspective it's more possible?
Become weaker up the middle to be stronger outside? I can dig it.

So much for cutting Mauga to get cap relief.
That's pretty much a worst of both worlds situation right there. All the downside of cutting a proven veteran with none of the financial savings. Well shit.

I asked elsewhere but how does IR affect the cap? Does his salary count fully even if the season hasn't started yet? Can they do an injury settlement and release with him and get some cap relief?

And yeah, they could injury settle with him but he has no obligation to do it. Why would he take anything less than he's owed? He was hurt during the game so unless he's willing to just write off half of it to Clark, it's going to be the same amount against the cap even if it's called an injury settlement. Now he was charged with about 400K in LTBE, per game incentives. I'm guessing since the IR will mean he's not playing again, the Chiefs can get the league to change those incentives to call them UTBE and that would take the incentives off the cap at least. But otherwise, this is pretty much a worst case scenario and completely blows.
