Potential Cuts (2024)

[toffee]

The team will have to make some decisions this offseason (2024) regarding the cap.

Potential Cuts
Geno- Savings $22.5M
Adams- Savings $16.5M
Lockett- Savings $17M
Diggs- Savings $11M
Dre Jones- Savings $11.5M
Will Dissly- Savings $7M
Bryan Mone- Savings $6M
Jarran Reed- Savings $4.5M
Nick Bellore- Savings $3M


Geno's cap number next year jumps to $31M. But releasing him would save about $22.5M ($8.7M dead cap- Post June 1st) for next year.

Also, cutting ties with Jamal could potentially save about $16.5M against the cap (Post June 1st). Something to keep in mind.

Who are some cuts that you would like to see?

Keep Reed, his is cheap, Keep Geno if he plays better rest of the season. The rest? Bye bye, nice knowing ya.

PFF basically has him playing at a replacement level this year. Very average. Meanwhile, his cap number is $18M next season. So, I ask, is it worth paying a guy premium money to get replacement level production?

You could justify paying Leonard Williams that kind of money. But Jones has been an average to below average DT for the last 3 years according to PFF & their grading scale.

Fwiw, both Adams & Diggs have been well below replacement level this season.

Jones is definitely not playing anywhere near his contract value.

He is under contract for 2 more years and the Seahawks could save $27M (over those 2 years) by releasing him after the SB.

I think his production could be easily replaced improved upon for much less than $27M to a different player.
