Anyone else we could potentially cut?

Probably too early but Baldwin sure doesn't seem worth 2 million either.

Sad that Cassel and Jackson count for nearly 30 million and we only save half that by cutting them.

[CaliforniaChief]

The fact that Albert's situation would have a fairly significant impact on our cap situation tells me that they are indeed going to try to extend him to a long term deal before July 15th and forgo drafting Joeckel/Fisher.

How does the equation work to figure how much of a cap savings we get for cutting a player?

Jackson was given a new contract last year...shouldn't his whole salary come off the books?

Tyson Jackson to get $31 million guaranteed
Posted by NBC Sports on August 7, 2009, 12:08 PM EST

Chiefs defensive end Tyson Jackson is on his way to training camp, and he’ll be a very rich man when he arrives.

Nick Wright of KCSP radio in Kansas City has alerted PFT that Jackson’s deal is for five years and $57 million, with $31 million guaranteed. Jackson was the third overall pick in April’s draft.

Agents of other rookie holdouts, especially Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry, will be examining all the particulars of Jackson’s deal closely.

If the figures hold up, Jackson will receive only $2 million less in guarantees than number two pick, Rams T Jason Smith.

Last year’s third pick, Matt Ryan, received $34.75 million guaranteed on a $66 million contract, receiving the usual quarterback premium.

It’s not a huge surprise Jackson missed so much of training camp. The third overall pick has been a difficult spot in rookie negotiations dating back to Larry Fitzgerald, Braylon Edwards, and Vince Young.

It’s unclear when Jackson will begin practicing, but Wright reports that Jackson began his journey to training camp early Friday morning.

So we should:

Cut Cassel. Slash Jackson. Cut Studebaker. Restructure Tamba/Berry. Extend Albert.

Boom.
