No, not a reset but we do need to quit paying our players top of the market contracts. We have $71 million tied up in 3 offensive linemen this cap year. I was good with all the contracts but now we also will need to pay a LT too. Thats another $25+ million. I think the OL is a priority. That said, we need to cut salary in other positions.

The cuts are going to hurt elsewhere. Like paying Bolton a top $ contract for being a great run stopper. We need LB's with more speed to cover the RB/LB's out of the backfield. FTR, I love Bolton as a player but this is just a cap thing. Just like Reid is still at the top of his game but we need to let him go.
