They can always keep Trey and the new LTs cap hits super low in year one and then move on from Taylor and Thuney next year instead, but it seems next to impossible any NFL team would have 5 starting lineman all making north of $15 million a year. I don't know how you would pull that off.

I think this would actually be the plan.
Thuney and Kelce's contracts run out after this year. They cost 44m this year that ends up freed up. Then you can cut Taylor to save another 20m next year at the expense of only 7.3m in dead money.
Both Jackson and Smith's hits in 2025 would be relatively low, if that's the direction they ended up and then when they are hitting 20m next year they have 64m to absorb it.
