with the cap penalty, our salary cap is expected to be around 98MM (as the nfl salary cap is expected to go down next year). We currently have 96MM committed to 2013 according to your figures on the site. Granted, we can get rid of a good portion by cutting:

however, if we get rid of those players, and taking into account our projected needs, we'd still need to sign 2 starting caliber cornerbacks (Hall is the only one currently on our roster), 2 starting caliber safeties, 1-2 starting caliber OTs (i am not optomistic about williams future) and a starting interior lineman, depending on how our players shake out this year. if we dont resign/extend davis between now and 2013 and/or he cant stay away from the weed, you can add starting TE to that list too.
Those are alot of needs to fill with limited cap space. And considering we wont have first round draft picks the next two years, ALL of our starting needs are going to have to be filled through free agency in 2013 and 2014. sure, we could get lucky with a 2nd or 3rd rounder, but you cant count on it.
