His base pay is $3.25 million this year and over $4 million the next 2 years. That's the savings, minus of course what we pay Bojourquez of course which is $935k iirc.

Or... Dallas could trade Connor McGovern for Hekker straight up. Unlikely, but would provide Rams solid Oline depth.

He is the highest paid and will be for the last couple years of his deal too good point.
Once again, I have to lament that Bill O'Brien isn't still in Houston, because with them Hekker fetches a 2nd rounder, 3rd rounder at minimum ... 
Seriously though, I'd like to see him stay a Ram, but if the staff is seeing that he's not the Johnny Hekker of old, then maybe it's time to move on.

I was just thinking and the last punter I can remember being traded was Andy Lee who brought in a 4th round pick?
The savings this year is only $450k when you subtract dead money and Bojo’s salary.
If he were to be released after this year, we’d save $2.8M, less the cost of a replacement.
As a result, cutting him now really isn’t a significant financial move.

The GM known as Jerry Jones?
Straight up trade for Zeke? We need a back-up for Sony...

Dead cap looks like $2.329 million base pay of $3.75 million a savings this year of about $1.4m. Then $4 and $4.25 the following years.
Wouldn't that be roughly $2.8 million which includes his replacement (Bojorquez)?
According the overthecap.com, the Cap Savings for moving on from Hekker is $3.75 million (post June 1st move)
I believe he's going to the Raiders...Just have a feeling.
$1.4 minus Bojo’s salary (which we don’t pay if we cut him and keep Hekker).
The future savings are not dependent on cutting Hekker now. We can keep him for a year, cut him this offseason, and still realize those savings.
overthecap.com shows his salary to be $920K with a $100K signing bonus.

Right… so we can pay JH’s salary and not pay Bojo’s, or pay Bojo’s salary and save JH’s salary, minus the dead money.
The difference is < $500K.
