You could reasonably argue that none of the current top 4 players in cap hit this year and next(Wentz, Jackson, Samuel, Fuller) are producing to their contracts so far and none are under contract past next year so would need to be resigned or replaced. If you were able to trade Jackson now and cut the other three in the offseason you would save $60m on the cap next year. Quick and relatively painless way to get back in good cap shape going forward. You would obviously need to replace Fuller, but not the other three. Besides Payne and Sweat they need to make decisions on Curl and Holcomb this off season
