Releasing Sam and the Cap

[12intheBox]

Anyone know what happens if we cut Sam right now? Do we get any cap savings?

Found this...

-Bradford is set to make $14,015,000 in 2014 base salary under this current deal. This deal carries a $17,610,000 2014 cap hit, and the Rams would absorb $7,190,000 in dead money if they cut Bradford right now ($3,595,000 X 2= $7,190,000, where $3,595,000 is the prorated bonus amount for both this year and next)

-Bradford is set to make $12,985,000 in 2015 base salary under his current deal. His 2015 cap figure is $16,580,000, and the Rams would absorb $3,595,000 in dead money if they cut Bradford after the 2014 season.

So we would save almost 10 million this year if we cut him now?

That's how I read that but I am an idiot on the Cap. I have tried and tried but my brain just doesn't process that kind of stuff. I blame my college years.

I know, but we might have to do something if we are going to bring in another QB. 10 million would be enough to sign Kurt Warner. (not that that would happen, but we would at least have money to do something)

All 12 of them? (whoops! Forgot the blue font! Thanks tomlib for the reminder)

Ah, I remember when I was a sophomore. The best three years of my life.

Rams will overcome!
