A cheap Maxwell that is. He's decent. I love Sherm and he's a complete stud, but a $13.2M cap hit is a killer and we could use some draft picks and cap to get a few good offensive lineman once Cable and Bevell are gone.
I'd rather have Maxwell than Sherman

Why not keep both?
But I agree that Sherman could be used in trade discussions, just like he was last off-season. I'm just not convinced we will receive an offer that warrants losing him.
Griffin, Maxwell, Shead, Coleman, Sherman. That's a lot of good corners!

Nope..sorry..Maxwell did ok but I’d rather have Sherman. It’s different if we have another rookie coming through but Maxwell has been found out a few times..Sherm, not so much.

Sherm would have caught the pick today.

Why are many suddenly forgetting how effective Sherman still was playing this year? He had a couple INTs in a half season and rarely gave up a big play. 13 mil cap hit or not, you can't replace his talent, knowledge, intensity and leadership.
He could still be performing at a high level for a few more years. I like Maxwell and see no reason why he couldn't be back next year as well.

Selective memory by some. Richard shuts down half the field in the passing game. He's still worth every penny.

If we are rebuilding, then yes give me Maxwell plus $7-10M in cap space over Sherman. If we are gunning for it, keep both.

the single most important factor, besides a competent QB, in a SB winner is great corners.
Every (almost) SB winner in almost the past 10 years had fantastic, not just adequate corners.
Sherman is a great corner.
And our FO would probably just blow $10M-15M on incompetent OL or TEs that they do not bother to use right anyway.
Not sure what you think you are getting with the cap savings except the freedom for the FO to make another stupid decision on a high dollar FA?

Is this a real conversation? Maxwell was retired---now he gets 5m a season?
Sherman resrtucrures, Maxwell for a little more than Veteran Minimum. Plays backup, and happy to collect a check.
Avril and maybe Kam done with neck issues, frees up a ton of cash. Bennett most likely as well with his dramatics.
He will go to GB or Pats to spite the Hawks. Plays with his brother. Goes after another ring over there.
The question is with those 3 gone, what's the cap releif?

Geez, how about we keep both? Max will not have many options and should be cheap.

Both! Should be easy.
